    That's cool. Didn't know you could do that on any game.

    Saints Row 2 only allows you to pick two genders, but you can make them gay and/or androgynous (ho-ing), I guess, one of few Western video games to do so.

    3 and 4 also allow it.

    White Knight chronicles used to as well.

    It's quite sad, in my opinion.

    This is why I support gender as a slider! Because not only can you make David Bowie, but you can choose your level of gender!

    Yeah I don't get why this is supposed to be funny either, it just mocks the idea of equality for people outside of the normal gender spectrum in a mean spirited way.

    I agree that there should be a third gender option for more games, or at least the ability to change your gender...

    Well the joke is seemingly that "lol those non-cisgendered people are being entitled and whiny and overreact to stuff", so seems pretty anti-queer

    I like that one better. It's more introspective.

    I don't think it was meant to be taken that way =/

    The format seems like the 'standard' for the internet. A lot of jokes online tend to be that way.

    I actually kind of like the original better myself.

    3 has no LGBT and androgynous substance and 4 cannot into androgyny, only gay/bi.

    I dunno. I just found it funny...plus I thought it was pleasant that someone outside of this forum was even aware that there was more depth to trans issues than simply male wanting to be female and female wanting to be male. Someone actually recognized their are inbetween areas. =/
