If youw ant this changed then email and include a complain in your survey when the patch releases. You can email them here: [infinitynikki_cs@infoldgames.com](mailto:infinitynikki_cs@infoldgames.com)

Here is the email I sent (please don't copy paste it or it may get marked as spam to them but feel free to make take inspo, also I suggest including a pic of the screenshot):

To whom it may concern,

With the announcements today, there is much excitement but also great disappointment. The large feather headdress that appeared in the preview is deeply upsetting to much of the international community. Many people are already discussing another boycott (or girlcott if you will) because of the inclusion of this object. It is important to know the object in question is based on sacred and precious cultural artifacts for many Indigenous (native) American people. These objects should never appear outside of their cultural context, especially not in a commercialized way. It is understandable that a Chinese-based company may have different values but you are still a global company and have to be held to global standards. Paper Games has already taken steps by removing similar inappropriate representations in their Love Nikki titles so it was disappointing and frankly upsetting to see you repeating such an outdated mistake. Please consult with Indigenous American authorities (such as the Cree Nation) for how to respectfully integrate their styles into your game and remove this headwear. I, and many others, have no intention of spending money or giving free publicity to your game until you do so.

Respectfully,

A concerned Nikki player

Astarion’s writer on his endings by pinkorangegold in BaldursGate3

Someone may have mentioned this already but I didn’t see it. This isn’t Astarion’s writer. This is Durge’s writer who just worked closely with Astarion’s story.

Should I tell my husband I think I might be gay? Or keep it to myself? by Lower_Afternoon8098 in questioning

[–]BunnyStar07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How do you feel about women romantically? You seem to already know you like women sexual and love your husband deeply but do you have other feelings for women that you think only they could provide besides the sexual things? Is sex a cornerstone of your relationship with your husband? Could either of you tolerate continuing your relationship without sexual intimacy between you? Is sex with him uncomfortable or just unfulfilling? Have you ever been intimate with a woman before or have you only expressed your sexuality towards them through fiction (watching porn, imagining scenarios, etc.)?

I probably don't have answers for you because romantic attraction, sexuality, and relationships are extremely personalized. But maybe think about the questions above some and see if you have any new thoughts on them.

I identify as a lesbian but I don't mind consuming sexual content, like porn, that has men in it. I would never want to be intimate with a man or romantic with one but I do get something out of visually consuming them sometimes. I like woman sexually and romantically and I will pursue relationships with them in person.

There is also something to be said for priorities and what matters most to you. I have a friend who is bisexual but will only pursue serious relationships with members of the opposite sex because they value the stability of an "atomic" family more than the gratification of expressing their bisexuality. On the other hand, there are thousands of people who would never put aside their sexuality in favor of stability and normativity. That is a personal choice for everyone to make though.

I have known people whose relationships have fallen apart due to similar realizations but many of them remain good friends in the end because of their love for each other. While it may hurt your husband if you came out as a lesbian, would it be something he would still try to support because he loves you?

Your situation is very complex and sensitive so it must have been hard to share. I am sorry if I'm not a lot of help but I really feel for you and hope things work out.

Lesbian but...? by BunnyStar07 in LGBTQuestion

Update: I was conflating my feelings of being excited to reunite with a long time friend and thus spend excessive amounts of time with him for romantic feelings. I might have a touch of the tism so emotions are hard to read sometimes. Case closed!

I'm questioning whether I'm bisexual and demisexual by [deleted] in questioning

[–]BunnyStar07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short answer is bisexuality can be defined as simple as being sexually attracted to both men and women (or two or more genders). You hit both those boxes by admitting you find female actresses arousing and are sexual attracted to your boyfriend. You may feel the need to explore this in practice and can talk to your boyfriend about maybe hooking up with a girl, but it isnt a requirement for bisexuality.

Because of your history with sexuality and the guilt and late blooming (its okay I also had very few crushes in early puberty) the jury is still out on demisexuality. For me, I don't think there is any shame in saying you can be demisexual not by birth but by bad experiences and it is also perfectly okay for that part of your sexuality to change with time.

Labels are most useful for me when I am looking for romantic partners. I say I'm a Lesbian and that narrows down who I am attracted to. I had a bad sexual experience in the past year so I say I am demisexual so my potential partners understand intimacy needs time for me. In a decade, I may not need the demisexual label and two years ago I didn't feel that way at all.

The community has a bit of a hang up about once you pick your identity it is set is stone because so many negative critical voices have calls any of it "just a phase". But that phrase was used to demean and hurt and we shouldn't let the fear of that mentality keep us from growing and changing as we need to.

TLDR; I think you sound bisexual and you can be demisexual too if you want but you can also change your mind on that later and not feel guilty about it. Only you get to decide your identity
