This is annoying me so much ...

Anyone else is super annoyed by the fact that our Chocobos are only referred to as males? My Chocobo, in my eyes, in my heart, is a female. My pink Chocobo named Tarot is a female, not a male. We should be able to pick their gender somewhere when they are stabled, or when we get them, or something.

Aye, I had to rename my chocobo because of that. I'd given them a female name, but the game constantly referred to them as male, so I had to rename them to a male name. Plus, the Gold Saucer has male and female chocobos, I wonder if it'd be possible to extrapolate on that and allow our companion chocobos to work in the same way.

As opposed to figuratively?

Yeah, early on, there was a casual statement of "Oh we only give the Grand Companies male bird because something something babies."

never thought a requote would be so fitting

People default to calling dogs "good boy" unless told otherwise so I'd imagine Eorzeans do the same with Chocobos.

There is a lore reason that all player chocobos are male. I believe it has something to do with Ishgard having a monopoly on female chocobos and chocobo breeding. That said, it would still be nice to be given an option to choose a female chocobo companion.
