Genders

**Mari** · Posted: Mon Apr 04, 2005 10:57 am Post subject: Genders

Quoting myself from IRC 'cause I'm lazy to retype this XD

<DrMari[ScalpelHappy]> I'm going to question the use of PETs as identifiers of gender.
<DrMari[ScalpelHappy]> Netto's PET is for males. (Blue)
<DrMari[ScalpelHappy]> Meiru's PET is for females. (Pink.)
<DrMari[ScalpelHappy]> If we consider Enzan's PET is red... would that make him an hermaphrodite?

Which is why I suggest we should change it. <.<; Just my opinion.

I still think a Narcy head would be better. >:<

But I guess that could work. I second this. \o/

Um...wait, aren't the PETs just colored according to their operator's NAVI color scheme? o_oU

**PlaguedOne** · Posted: Mon Apr 04, 2005 3:40 pm Post subject:

They are not the PETs of Netto and Meiru, though.

Blue for male
Pink for female

It has nothing to to with operators at all. The blue/pink thing is a rather standard boy/girl identifier.

Why don't we just switch back to the previous scheme? You know, the two symbols for Jupiter and Venus (I think)

I can't tell which one is which. Make them easier to decipher! Sad

And... will there actually be any gender icon for "unspecified" at all?

**PlaguedOne** · Posted: Mon Apr 04, 2005 4:41 pm Post subject:

Are you serious? The lack of either gender doesn't tell you that it's "unspecified"? Fine.

Whoa, I was about to post the same topic. I think it's a good idea we change it to the original gender symbols, instead of PETs with palette-swaps. Sometimes I'm not wearing my glasses and I can't tell the difference between the two, but not on the old forum when we had the real symbols. And also, what if someone here is colorblind? (not like I am) ^_^

Actually if you make a green one, there could be a gender for Ribbita-Garmon Laughing

But maybe if it was a light purple, then we could call Enzan a hermaphrodite?

But I think the new gender icon's are kick-ass. It's a break from the usual male/female signs

I happen to like my blue P.E.T. Advance, its the very reason I listed my gender. (I'm not kidding)

I was "unspecifed" for the past two years (except for that couple of weeks when I was male), until I saw the snazzy pink PET. :D

I really dont see anything wrong with these Gender icons we have right now...although I would like that Narcy icon for unspecified. Although if we had that...everyone would use it. XD
