Hey there,

No one said you had to enter this thread. Ignore it if you don't want to participate in the discussion. Don't force your opinion on others. Queer folks aren't going to feel safe in this space if you kick down their door and tell them to shut up.

For the record, I am not doing what you say. You either didn't understand my comment or whatever the case is here. I am saying that your or others gender should not be a factor deciding how games are developed. The mod log of removed content, in case someone believes what you said. So don't tell people I was forcing my opinion on others: https://beehaw.org/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModRemoveComment&userId=442071

Please, feel free to explain what you meant.

Yes and you'll see my removal comment states "'games where it doesn't belong' you don't get to decide what an artist does with their art". This was true. This is true. Your statement above is clearly dictating that gender should not be a factor (or sexual identity, or frankly any other identity such as race or ability). If an artist decides it should be a factor, then that is up to them. You don't get to dictate what the art should be.

reason: "games where it doesn't belong" you don't get to decide what an artist does with their art

Oh yes, I decide where it does belong to. As much as you decide what opinion I have and remove my comments. I can decide for myself where it belongs.
