Bring up intersex people and watch them shift the goalposts and scramble for a new dog whistle
Oh donât worry people have brought that up and seen them scramble at that.
Itâs hillarious to watch unfold.
Just use the correct models to represent your character.
Annoyingly, two of the new hairstyles for human females suit my bard perfectly (curly bun and fro), unlike the new hair options for human males (dreadlocks or short curls). Really highlights that Blizz dropped a ball on a few things here.

N o. You cannot make me.
bigots screeching about homosexuality not being natural, while
what isnât natural: marriages, clothes, cars, guns, etc
what is natural: sexual and gender fluidity
bigots owned with facts and logic if i do say so myself hehe
I thought both of these were natural resources grown from trees?
nono, youâre mixing up the sandbox tree (which has its fruits explode and shoot its seeds at 70 metres per second around) with cars that drive 70 metres per second and explode (and guns)!!!
also i dont know cars so idk how fast cars can go, conversion says 252 km/h, surely thatâs a car right?
I do. With my super effeminate void elf boi Vyrien, for example, I use the female void elf model.
With my AMAB transgender auchenai draenei, I use the female model.
It would be fantastic if Blizzard would catch up with the last 10+years of gaming development and give us more body types other than girl or MAN.
The annoying thing is that some races have some really nice body types that could work for both in-game genders across all races, but is instead locked to that specific race and that specific gender.
I wanna play a Velf female but the body type irks me.
Same with NElf female.
And human males.
I just ugghh. Give us TYPES. Buff females and slender males pls. PLS.
The Thalassian elf models are one of the best though
Swtor has a pretty nice range of bodtypes despite being only 4.
Basically âpetiteâ âdefaultâ âHunkyâ and âLargeâ. For both male and female characters.
It isnât too bad I mean but⌠Itâs not for what I wanna RP
kul tirans shouldâve been a human customization
Itâs because all SWTOR races are pretty much just reskins.
Blizzard prefers adding more races over adding more nuance to existing races. They might add stuff like hairstyles but I donât think we will ever see things like different body shapes - at best they will become a separate race instead (see Kul Tirans).
This lack of nuance really peeves me at times. WoW seriously lacks options in between walking fridge and barbie doll for some races.
Itâs one of the reasons I really love pandaren, btw, at least the female ones (the males are a bit scuffed). They are tanky. Iâve seen nothing like them in WoW before. Even f-orcs look suspiciously human if you ask me.
Yeah, I see precisely zero issue with this. The in-game models arenât exactly fantastic, so we have to use the closest approximation available. Sometimes the presence of breasts is still more aesthetically accurate than being this absolutely jacked beefcake.
The people who conflate the actions of a few fetishised âtrapâ characters with every gender neutral or non-conforming character (or anything else for that matter) are just revealing to me some inherent distaste towards anything reminiscent of being trans.
Yeah⌠That community is not being treated well. They are attacked by both bigots and fetishists from both sides at once.
Itâs part of why I wouldnât dare try it. I run into enough stupidity every time I dare mention my feminism activism online.
That or a certain level of âdoth protest too much.â
I honestly prefer it over the alternative, games like SWTOR, ESO, BDO where all races are âHuman but Xâ. Theyâre incredibly uninspired.
