    “Small demographics” like… women.

    This isn’t just for trans people.

    Hell even as a cis man I might want to play a woman, and I’d sure not want my immersion broken by other characters calling my female character “he” if I did so. Like its a roleplaying game, its cool to let me play a role.

      I’m a cis man who rarely plays as a male character. I play games to experience something different, not to engage in power fantasies.

      This guy is upset that the game reminded him that the real world exists, where he feels like things are moving away from a white male centered society. It shattered his power fantasy and reminded him he’s an insignificant loser shouting into the void.
