Pronouns???

[Juzjuzz]

You can't let a child think he's completly innocent when something bad happens, it's even worse as an adult. Even if he doesn't know, saying "it's not your fault you didn't know" is not pushing him to think by himself.
It's okay to fail, but always putting the blame on others is not a good thing. Even if you didn't do mutch wrong, sometimes you just have to look and you'll understand that you could have done something differently. You can't adjust and get stronger if you don't do that imo. Looking as my own mistakes was not always easy, i failed a lot. Even right now i think i could have done some things better.

And gender identity sucks, the more i think about it and the less i want to care. F*ck pronouns man xD

On the plus side, it's allowed me to figure out how the "ignore" button works and given me the motivation to use it in a few cases. :-)

Yeah, and since I moved to this side of the US during my childhood, I experienced racism for the first time. I am from California and actually never experienced it prior, at least not as a child. I am part Spanish, and look it. I was picked on in school here for "not being American", to "Hop back over the border", and many MANY other insults. It was a culture shock, and yes, it still hurts to think about the abuse children can levy at eachother. The trick is to not let it get to you as an adult, and I actually haven't personally experienced since childhood anyway. Yes, I am aware this is the pronoun thread, but the same concept applies.

Aye yeah when I came back to NY it was a trip. I was born in NY but my parents moved to Spain when I was a child to care for my mom's mother. I lived in a bubble I legit never even knew the concept of race or even thought about.

Yet when I came back to the states I started getting picked on for how I looked. Oddly enough in when I lived in Spain I never felt different due to how I looked yet looking extremely different from most, yet once I came to the states it is like a fog was lifted all of sudden my appearance mattered. I did not fit in with either side of my upbringing.

Oddly enough being a black blonde Hair blue eyed child was weird at the time.

Either way as Churro mentioned it sucks but you cannot let it bother you as an adult. It is done in the past and also as an adult I have not experienced such issues cause I do not let me get it me. Sure people may still poke fun but no point letting it live rent free.

So this was something I've been thinking about for a while but...how easy would it be to just be able to pick our pronouns at character creation? You could pick your sex to whatever and that'd be the physical aspect of it but pronoun choice would just differ the text.

The idea came to mind after a trans friend struggled to make a character they could be happy with. They went with a lady Lala but they didn't get past the cut scene before they were annoyed with being called a "lass".

I know it's not something people are asking for and I know there's going to be rude naysayers who will say it's not important, that you shouldn't let pronouns get in your way of gaming, but it seems like it'd be an easy thing to implement. A lot of games are going that way so why not???

*side stepping the entire thread*

I think this would be a wonderful suggestion for the next FF Online. If implemented from the very beginning I think it would a very welcome option. To change the game now however would be a tall order, though that's something the localization team would know about best.

I laughed at this way harder than I should have. And then I felt a bit sad.

No. It would take too long to rework all the dialogue and not worth the DEV time. People need to get over having pronouns in all aspects of life. And I say this as a member of the LGBT community and I do NOT put pronouns anywhere and that's my right not to. I didn't know it was a requirement.

I mean everyone does have pronouns.
If you're male and identify as a man then '' he '' is still your pronoun.

I think it makes sense in most cases to just let people choose between '' he/ she '' and maybe '' they '' if it's not ultra inconvenient.
Altho honestly even when it comes to '' they '' I am kinda already beginning to become a bit meh about it, I have a really hard time believing that some people don't identify at least a little bit stronger with one but fine.
I just see a lot of people who use that pronoun who VERY clearly presents one way it feels a bit ridiculous.

As soon as we step out of that tho and we get into '' Zie, Sie, Ey, Ve, '' etc I mean at that point sorry but just stop being obnoxious...
I really feel like that stuff also does severe harm to Trans people because it turns gender identity into a complete joke to most people.
