After all if you are to Live Forever as an Immortal Capsuleer, to deal with The Never Ending Life & Death Cycle
doesn't it mean that you as a Capsuleer Have To Have Unity in, Mind, Body & Sol.

Well, at least he didn't ask to play as a pony......not that there's anything wrong with that.Roll

To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.

...and every time I get another piece of Carbon, I know exactly what CCP is getting this Christmas.

We don't need this crap in Eve. But if you want to gender bend just choose the one that best fits what your wanting to mold, then sculpt it and role play whatever gender you want to be associated with.

Who cares what's in your pants... I mean character page. Imagine you have rotors, and noone will doubt you sexually identify as an attack helicopter.

There are ponies in the game, I see them all the time. Some emit rainbow engine trails.

You sai, are vastly intellectually challenged. There were 24 listed genders last time I checked (in reference to Sol III). Three are listed as hyllic genders ie; male, female, hermaphrodite. The others, whatever they are, do exist you dullard. The last time I checked was four years ago.

≡⋁≡ however, does not need a gender argument. I'm simply writing this to inform you on the home planet where your flesh resides your opinion is pure flat earth claptrap.

I only post here if EvE is offline. Which means my posts are never well timed.

Talking about the OP or one of the responses?

OP might just be trolling, not sure about one who responded though.

In a game where you can be anything or anyone you want to be, something that is told to you as you begin playing by CCP themselves, I hardly think discrimination based on gender is really a thing here. Noone can see you naked anyway. So whatever you tell someone you are, thats basically what you are until you say or prove otherwise to someone else.

In fact online in a virtual reality such as the Eve universe I would venture to say being "yourself", is the easiest thing to be if you so choose to be.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

I identify as a Heavy Assault Cruiser. Does that count as another gender?

We can have different clones with different body features. Also gender swapping is popular among capsuleers. Pick your flavor and have fun.

Have you ever taken a peek under your dress?

THERE'S NOTHING THERE!

EVE has no genders. It's all in your mind, people.

There are two genders in EVE Online because that's what's hard coded into the character creator - based on the two standard genders for the human race that are recognised scientifically, male and female. EVE is a Science Fiction game.

There have been talks of allowing gender changes for characters, as well as the ability to dress in whichever gender's clothing you see fit, however at this stage these are still things that have not been committed to be worked on, as our focus right now lies with making cool spaceships and in-space content rather than working on the character creator, or avatar gameplay.

Given some of the responses in this thread, the fact that I've answered this question, and the fact that it's going to get out of hand pretty fast, I'm locking this.
