I want an androgynous Pokemon trainer, but whever I say that everyone says 'it's just a game, it doesn't matter'.


'Are you a boy or a girl?' is a powerful question to those who aren't cis-gendered. I feel that more cis-gender people need to snap on their perspective goggles.

0kay, that wasn't so bad.


 I'm fine having to play a female character, why should not having your specific gender as the player character matter?

Because it's important to those people to have their gender represented, and it's important to them because Pokemon is important to them and thus they want their beloved games to be able to reflect who they are.


I mean, in X and Y you could choose your character to be darker-skinned. That was a huge step for Nintendo.


I think that having a single, gender-neutral character will help Nintendo, actually. You could get a boy's or girl's haircut and clothing if that's included in the next game.


The games also address you as gender-neutral (never once does the text say she/hers) so text isn't an issue either.

Four of my sonas are female, big deal. I dont see why it would be a problem. Infact if you look my current one im using is female

I actually was accused of being transgender once because I have a female sona. First of all really thats what your gonna insult someone with, is that supposed to hurt my feeling. Second of all how the hell does that make any sense

Sounds like an ignorant c**t has struck a nerve again hehe. Are you, yourself, female in real life? If so, then it doesn't make any sense. If you're actually a male in real life, then I can see why they would assume that. But you know what they say about assuming? It makes an "ass" out of "u" and "me." Anyways, have a nice day, Sunder  ^_^

Your fursona can tells a lot about you, so I don't see it any suprising. I would think like that as well.

My fursona is male. But since I use my real life sex as my gender on the forums, I don't really get that issue. But I do get people calling my fursona Evna and referring to him as female in roleplays on occasion. :P

I want to sleep more but I can't. >:I

Damn dude. Have you told them to STFU yet? Arguing with family is like the dumbest s**t. I don't mean to sound so crude, but I've dealt with this s**t for too long too. I can't even go to my aunt's house without them getting into some shouting match. I want to knock the hell of both of them tbh.
