It's not surprising to me really given that gamers have thrown fits over past games using types instead of 'female' or 'male' but I guess I just can't get over how fucking stupid it is to care so much that you download a mod that reverts the text in a character creation menu. The slightest change in language in order to be more welcoming to other players is treated as the downfall of society by these people.

(For context, this is on nexusmods)

One of the biggest figures in Morrowind & general Elder Scrolls lore is an intersex nonbinary demigod who was a lover of their chief general who they then schrodinger murdered by impaling him (symbolism intentional) with a spear made from the severed penis of the god of SA.

Elder Scrolls has always been weird and queer as fuck but these dumbasses will pretend like it's gone woke because it included a nongendered body type option.

What’s a non gendered body type? Not trying to be rude but I legitimately have never heard of the concept

I think they're referring to the body types being "Type 1" and "Type 2" vs "Man" or "Woman"
