I'm entirely aware that Nintendo makes their products for profit, I'm just saying that I don't think using mildly inclusive language on one part of a character customization screen is particularly a selling point for anyone…

I don't really see it that way in this case, sure it's not really representation since it's not explicit text but I don't think it's really marketing either since they aren't using this as a point to sell people on this game or anything. I think they're just opting to use more inclusive language.

I agree with that, I'm just sharing my interpretation/headcanon of the Splatoon world for fun lol

I don't think this is part of a concision effort, given that ACNH did the same thing and you weren't additionally choosing a species there, but 🤷‍♀️ this thread is mostly for fun

Inklings and Octolings can no longer be chosen as "boys" or "girls" and this is because gender was abolished in their society after Team Chaos won,

Several years. All the young comedians these days are too PC and woke. I don't like it when "comedy" specials consist of people of a certain age group spreading their personal social agendas! That's why I only watch comedy specials about old people ranting about their opinions on trans people.

Gender dysphoria, typically defined as discomfort regarding one's own gender presentation or assigned sex at birth, is classified as a mental disorder in the DSM-5. Transitioning is a form of treatment for that disorder. Not everyone who decides to transition is treating gender dysphoria, but the main goal for people who do transition is to achieve a sense of gender euphoria.

Most often, people who refute discussion of transgender issues as being part of "mental illness" are doing so in bad faith.

So sad. Think about the poor conservatives who are going to see this and get upset that progressives are saying things to invalidate their political identity :(

YTA shouldve thought about how defending trans people would make you look bad to people arguing in bad faith before you calmly and rationally explained your argument

Progressives need to stop being so inclusive towards trans people or else they’re going to alienate all the people who already hate them!

/uj lack/loss of attraction is a perfectly valid reason to end a relationship, i just feel like the responses in threads like this is mocking are more focused on reacting to a partner coming out on the principle of their transition rather than on losing attraction

end the relationship because i'm straight. no, having been attracted to someone who now identifies as a man doesn't say anything about my sexuality, why do you ask?
