Transcript by OP

[fscom]

I loved the game, but think the way it tackled gender was pretty... grating.

To give some context, since the game is a bit niche, you play as a dfab person who, for plot reasons, was raised as a boy by his adoptive father. He joins the army, doing his best to conceal his birth designation but has no trouble thinking of himself as a woman. Eventualy, romance happens, and one of the characters joins him in his tent for what turns out to be an intimate moment. One thing leds to another, and he discovers the MC’s secret. After a short explanation, he apologises, saying he’s attracted to men only, at which point the MC ponders whether he considers himself a man or not. This, however, has no bearing on how (s)he will present (her)himself as (s)he will continue to be the same boy soldier (s)he was. If you confirm you’re not a man, this shuts down that particular character’s route, but if you go the trans boy route, the guy is more than happy to jump your bones.

But... What’s the point? It doesn’t even make sense - the MC looks and behaves the same either way, and that character was obviously attracted to him before he knew the MC’s birth assignment. So what’s the cause for such a stark difference? Why does the way the MC thinks of (her)himself internally make the difference between ‘oh yes lets have sex’ and ‘ew gross’?
