I also don't see the reasoning behind this rule. I've been a part of sites that take RPing a lot more serious than here and its perfectly fine to make a female character.

I honestly don't care that much, as I don't plan on making a female bio :)|) but it is a pretty pointless rule lol. As Shigure said, the point of role play is to play the role of a character that you are not. So it takes away quite a bit from the point of role play if it's gender-restricted. It's even more pointless when you think of how a male can change his icon to say female, and then you wouldn't know anyway. I mean, if Kirabi did it then we'd all know lol, but a newer member could.

So yes, people should be allowed to choose bios from either gender.

<_< >_> Again, this isn't for me, just sharing my opinion in the case of those who want to.

This rule should be overturned.

It doesn't matter if people's behavior could seem "creepy" or not. The entire point of free will - the entire point of living in the countries that we live in, free of overwhelming dictatorial suppression - is to be able to act however you want. It doesn't matter if your behavior seems "creepy" or "weird" to other people; you have the right to act however you want, as long as you don't insult or hurt others.

A little extreme on how to say it, but totally true. A lot of people said it before, this is role playing. To role play you act as someone or something you are not. It doesn't matter if the person is playing the opposite ***. I mean there isn't any problem with Emperor playing as a penguin. :|

This rule should be overturned, but it's not like it was a written rule to begin with. It was just mod/general opinion at that time.

I don't see me making a female bio at any time, but it's nice to know I have the ability to do so.

Thanks, I was wondering how long it would take before my penguin-ness is brought up. >.>

Considering I RP as two of the MOST weird characters in existence - specifically, a freakishly cannibalistic plant/human and a talking penguin - I cannot oppose Kirabi's suggestion. >.>
