I dont know, what about a character claiming shes non-binary in a game set in the middle ages?

"....the phrase non-binary gender was not known until 1999 and not in regular use until 2006."

Yep according to google, that term wasn't used then.


Also why is it that the otherside just ignore the facts, these effects have on games... and resort to name calling?
Like we already have a person posting a picture, naming people that don't agree with him, as dickheads.

"Third genders" are thousands of years old. A lot of the terminology is new in English, but there are tons of cultures that have recognized more genders than 2.

The Bugis in Indonesia have recognized 5 genders for hundreds of years.

It's mostly only been in the past century, that there has been any pushback against that idea.

There are a lot of writings that Ancient Egypt (4000 years ago), had 3 genders.
