My story with the game is that I didn’t want to get made fun of for playing as a girl, so I roleplayed as black instead of playing a self insert.
I chose the boy character while thinking to myself “I wish I could choose the girl.”
i didnt hesitate, i picked the fukin girl
on an unrelated note, i cannot believe it took so long to realize this about myself
One of the things about the trans masc experience. Nobody fucking questioned me playing as boy… ever. They were also still surprised Pikachu face when I came out as trans despite me dressing like a male poke-protagonist since the moment I got to choose my own clothes and not wear hand-me-downs.
I wholeheartedly wish to take a bat to the patriarchy so that our AMABs can finally be free and girl option is not looked at as some kind of innately less cool failure state. I hope future gens of humans will never need hesitate about what poke-protagonist they wanna be the very best like no one ever was with …for any reason other than debating the preference of outfits.
Nope but it very much annoys me that the games lack an NB option.
