A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
If a person plays as an opposite-gender character, it's because they secretly wish to be that gender and are therefore trans.
If a person plays as a same-gender character, it's because they like looking at same-gender ass and are therefore gay.
There are no other options.
spoiler
If they somehow find a third option anyway, that just mean's they're a furry.
On the one hand, this is funny. On the other hand, this is exactly the kind of humor that led to me repressing my gender identity. I feel so conflicted.
That's the neat part: you can't repress your gender identity because 'straight' wasn't an option!
(Unless you actually are straight, but whatever -- it won't kill us to be the ones who have to just fuckin' deal with it, for once!)

(Seriously though, my intent was to be funny in an inclusive way, not a repressive way. Apologies if I missed the mark!)

No wonder when given the option, I have male heads on female bodies...
does it change anything if its a female head on a male body?
Reverse Furry. You are a real anthropomorphic animal, but you wish you were human.
I usually play a female character, because if im going to stare at an ass for 120 hours, it might as well be a nice ass.
Exactly my philosophy. Also the whole "escape reality" bit. I also like RPGs where I can be an immortal skeleton or a lizard prince (ok, both of those examples were actually just Divinity: Original Sin 2).
if you find yourself playing games as an immortal skeleton or a lizard prince, you may not be entirely human. join my community and see if you relate to being a skeleton or lizard 😃
I'm hardcore hetero on the Kinsey Scale, but I've always played females. Fuck it, I've been a male every day of my life and games are there to escape reality (for me anyway).
If you need a way to escape reality and you choose to be a girl, you might not be as male or hetero as you think, Just sayin...🥚 🏳️⚧️
You can keep saying it, but that doesn't make it true. Trying to force someone to be trans is just as bad as trying to force someone to be straight shame on you.
I'm not forcing anyone to be trans. I'm encouraging them to see their signs for what they are. The whole forcing people to be trans is TERF bullshit based on the idea that we're transing the kids.
now we talkin'
My character looks exactly like I do, though.
The gender is tied to the role for me. Male warrior, female assassin, male wizard, female ranger, male anyone with a gun, female thief.
Its about picking the gender that best fits the vibe of the character. The character is in mind their own person and also never represents me.
All this doesnt matter since I'm picking a warrior 99% of the time became i hate wizards and sneaky folk.
Forcing trans ideals on folks because of the character they play is one of the reason the cheeto bandito won... just stop it its toxic as fuck.
Why would I want to look at a dudes ass in third person for 120 hours?
Hey, we're not here to judge. You can look at dude-ass to your heart's content.
If they keep stacking em, I'll keep packin, em.
Don't you romance dudes as a female character?
Only when it's necessary for the plot
I don't like ruining my 100% lesbian runs
120 hours
Commander Shephard?
I heard this several times and it confuses me a lot. Are you actually looking at the backside of the character instead of the rest of the game?
Depends on how much you have to dodge and how much your character is in your peripheral.
Honestly, confuses me as well. I'm all for playing whatever gender you want to, but looking at polygons in the shape of a human ass is... different for sure.
Dude you can't get a decent stealth bonus wearing come-fuck-me-boots no matter how hard you abuse the crafting system.
Several bro justifications in here however this has lead to thousands of cracked eggs and it's only a matter of time fellas
Lots of people make excuses, but if they really sat down and thought about it without any internalized transphobia they'd realize it's actually because they want to be a girl more than anything else.
I played as the opposite gender one (1) time in 2010, to hear the novelty of the female VA for the protagonist in a fully voiced game after two runs as the male protagonist, and I haven't stopped since. RIP me 😔
Don't worry sister, it gets easier eventually 🫂 🏳️⚧️
Preferring to play female characters does not make someone trans, jfc.
It doesn't make someone trans, but it is a strong sign they likely are trans...
My wife plays as a male and I play as a female. When we were playing wow, random male characters would drop me 100gold at a time. This is when we were very early into wow and we just started getting silvers.
Star Wars Galaxies I would leave my character dancing in a cantina and come back to thousands of tips in credits.
I tend to play female characters. Only because of the smaller hitbox tho, definitely not for other reasons.
:3
I like girls so much I became one in real life 🏳️⚧️
I think it's very likely you're trans and there's nothing wrong with that, it's important to come out and accept yourself and realize that these are signs you might not be as cis as you thought you were.
Check out !egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone and !traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns@lemmy.ca and see if you relate to anything there. If you do, you're probably not entirely cis 🏳️⚧️
You must follow the Egg Prime Directive. You may not push or coerce people into identifying or not identifying a certain way. You must respect them as the gender they claim to identify as. In addition it is extremely in poor taste to make assumptions about other people’s identities based on external factors, we understand it cannot be helped but it is best not to as it can affect the way you treat others in noticeable ways.
Don't quote that gatekeeping garbage to me, I'm not pushing or coercing anyone of being trans. No trans person does that. That's TERF garbage meant to try and villify trans people for existing or being supportive of other trans and questioning people.
I've just come to the conclusion that my digital persona is a woman. I'm a cis hetero man in real life though. Not really any questions about it. But even in VR, I just exist as a lady.
Have you ever considered being a lady in real life?
I don't think that's an unreasonable question! But no, I have not. I'm very comfortable in my own body as it was given to me.
That's reasonable, but not everyone has gender dysphoria. There are some people who are comfortable as they are but would be blissfully happy and euphoric as the opposite gender, without even knowing it.
That's true.
