For everyone reading this, if you have thoughts or opinions on the subject, please direct them to the original post to centralize the discussion. Thank you.

I would like to see more peoples perspectives to try and achieve a middle ground with whether the mod should be kept or not.

I may have tried to given the benefit of the doubt if it were like, during chara creation after the name is made you can't continue until you select from the drop-down, thereby forcing players to choose? (Even then, what a ridiculous thing to complain about.)

But it's not even that. If you choose male or female you have to actively click on the pronoun to bring up the menu to even change it. When first coming across it I almost passed right by it, only noticing it at all because I can read. You have to actively go out of your way to utilize the mechanic.

It just makes no sense for it to be an issue outside of people looking to create problems. And hate.
