Wait, the mod removed the option to set a gender in the character editor? Why don't these people just make a male character and be done with it?

Because it's not actually about the pronouns. These people aren't actually angry about pronouns.

They're angry about trans and non-binary people. They're angry that people are growing to accept these people, who they do not think should be accepted. They are angry that a group they don't think is normal, is being accepted as normal.

Let's roll it back a bit. There's a bit of a difference between "accepted" and "tolerated". For the most part, the trans community is merely tolerated by the majority of the country.

I don't know what the point of your comment is.

Trans and non-binary people are becoming more accepted as normal over time. The people screaming about pronouns don't actually care about pronouns, they oppose that gradually growing acceptance.
