For me it’s not even about gender identity or role playing. If I’m going to spend 200 hours in a 3rd person RPG looking at a character’s ass, that ass had better be female.
My man! 🤝

Isn’t skyrim FP though?
Skyrim can be played as either, though I personally do prefer 1st person in the case of Skyrim. I specifically said ‘3rd person RPG’ because the point I was making wasn’t limited to just Skyrim, and anything played 3rd person is obviously where it’s important to my experience of, ah… the game. Yes, totally of the game.
Didn’t remember that about Skyrim, thanks.

Exactly! The fact I’m taking oestrogen and wearing pretty clothes is totally unrelated. Still cis BTW.
I notice your pronouns are she/her – are you a cis woman then?
I’m trans - the “still cis btw” was a little jokey joke

Female V has such an amazing voice oh my god. Not like every other voice actor in the game isn’t an absolute genius, but man does she hits the mark all the time

It’s the best Keanu acting possible! I love the man to bits, he’s an absolute treasure and should be cherished, but he can’t voice act for shit.
I agree that voice is what matters, but I feel that femshep is way better than male shep. Agreed on V, though.
Since the dawn of gaming I always picked the more aesthetic choice, which mostly is the female choice. Never cared about the “u play woman? U gay!” Idiots…
I never understood how me preferring to look at a female figure while playing a game was ever something to question…
Easy! drumroll It is still drumrolling Toxic Masculinity! Those that fear to become gay after a prostate-exam :-)

As someone who played korean MMOs for most of his youth, women were the only choice as every male skin looked like he’s wearing painted cardboard lmao.

Listen to “lady of the dark” from Sabaton, you’ll automatically create a woman character named Milunka whatever gender you are.
You’ll be fully immersed and you’ll feel Serbian even if you’re from another country !
I am loving that bag. Beautiful
Smaller hitbox ftw

“Everyone that has ever even thought about roleplaying as a different gender is secretly closeted trans” is one of my least favorite takes of all time.
Gender is bullshit! Try shit! It’s a perfectly healthy and normal thing everyone should be comfortable with, don’t make it into a thing.
Gender is bullshit! Try shit!
isn’t that the entire point though? if you consistently like doing this, you might not be what you think you are, and thats ok too.
It’s entirely possible, but that’s something for every individual to find out for themselves. You can be a confidently cis dude and find it enjoyable to have a female avatar, correlation == causation.
correlation vs causation is irrelevant. The important thing is that there are no absolutes.
Gender is not bullshit, gender is real and trans people are real. Stop spreading stupid anti-trans rhetoric. People who feel and express a certain gender are more likely to be that gender, even if that gender doesn’t align with their assigned gender at birth.
“me not being able to label anyone that breathes funny as a closeted trans person is anti-trans rhetoric” is certainly one of the takes of all time.
It’s the exact same shit as “teehee they’re intelligent they must be autistic” or “oh you organize your socks you must have adhd/ocd”. It’s not suddenly okay to assume shit about people when it’s that they’re not cis/neurotypical.
Gender is whatever the fuck any individual wants it to be for them. I like how that other commentor described it, gender anarchy.
Being trans isn’t a choice and our society already stigmatizes being trans so people deny it or won’t accept it and make up dumb excuses to not accept the fact they are a trans girl. But people need to come out because being closeted isn’t healthy, and the sooner the better. Why are you so against trans people coming out and accepting themselves as trans?
People can do whatever the fuck they want, to themselves. You don’t get to tell them what they are or aren’t. There is nothing different between calling a stranger an egg and telling someone you don’t believe they’re really trans.
Anyways, this conversation will clearly never go anywhere productive. I hope your real world day goes better.
No, there is a big difference between trying to help someone discover themselves and denying a person’s gender identity. To argue that they are the same is Transphobic TERF garbage meant to spread the idea that being trans is wrong or abnormal.
You are right to acknowledge that this will never be productive. Arguing with TERFs rarely is.

I think both are valid you know? If you want to just make a cool looking character or go for some aesthetic then do it, but people (such as my sister) I think get a certain excitement from envisioning themselves casting spells etc.
