first forum post, gotta make it count for my transgener agenda
right now all i can do to make the game gay is make bisexuality the default but i need more!!
love the game, i just feel like gender in it doesnt fit what i would like it to be and my opinion is the only correct onee!!!!

one option to change how sex & gender works may just be have dwarfs assigned a gender and sex at birth, but their internal or subconcious view of their gender may change or something, maybe also add like masculine and feminine presentation of themselves separate from gender idk.
gender+sex abolition
literally remove gender and sex castes from most creatures and instead add a tag called like [BREEDING] or something that just lets them reproduce and change pronouns to they/them or it/its
procedurally generated genders/pronouns
all craftsthey/themship is of the highest quality
adding pronouns to accomodate different identities could work in different ways, make dwarves able to have random pronouns or pick pronouns. one idea is to make it kinda like [ORIENTATION] for castes so like most dwarves of the male caste will go by he/him but some by other pronouns, though that kinda sucks because they'd be locked into that caste. maybe potentially allow caste types like a sex caste and then gender caste and make it so that a dwarf has a sex caste then a gender caste, the gender one able to change. i feel like these ideas are limited to what the game currently has to offer though, with the caste system and all.

add a [BREEDING] tag which allows a creature to breed without relation to castes, any two creatures can reproduce. this would also allow for people to mod gender out of the game, i guess.
disc world
the book series disc world has dwarves, and in their culture all dwarves are men, regardless of their biological sex. however, theres also a character that is a dwarf who is biologically female but didnt want to be a man which is pretty cool. this is a really cool concept
disc world one is my favorite idea. none of these are really exclusive and i apologize that this post is messy, i was just writing stuff down as i thought them
also female dwarves should have beards by default in the raws!!!!
