The problem is that if it really came down to equally “does a majority get this right or does a minority get this same right” then yeah, it MIGHT go to the majority.

Changing gender on your birth certificate requires full surgery, which is to the tune of $10-20K for trans women and $40-50K for trans men, and often requires 3-6 months of downtime. Considering job discrimination trans people face, it’s legitimately hard to get to the point of being able to even afford surgery. There…

It’s true. Companies (particularly publicly funded companies) tend to skimp on changing stations, and if they do they put it in the women’s.

I’m not sure what NC’s specific laws for transitioning are, but in my state you’re not allowed to have any form of gender surgery unless you’ve been on hormones AND LIVING OPENLY AS YOUR NEW GENDER for at least two years. (Prove your dedication and all that jazz.) So if my state were to…

He also says to promote females because they make the best management... I’m all for more girls in game dev but that’s still wrong as hell. Everything in that slideshow is total trash.

Pretty much if it’s not made by Uematsu, I’m not interested :P

The rule of thumb for copyright issues is indeed “does this immediately bring to mind the other if you’re familiar with it”. Honestly I was surprised I never saw them get in trouble for Moggle, I assumed they’d gotten permission. Clearly not the case this time.
