Pronoun selection Road to the masters
Hello, I was instructed by 2 customer support agents to direct my question to the forum with regards to the player bio creation. Apparently there is no function to remove pronoun selection from the ...

Why do you feel you need to have a conversation about it with your 7-year old?
A seven-year-old isn't even going to notice, much less care about something like this. They are just happy to play a game with a parent at that age.
The only reason you care is because Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Fox News told you to care. Turn all that crap off and you will live a much happier life.
Hi,
That's the point, I don't want to have a conversation about it with my 7-year old (nor do many parents I know).
I assure you, there is a very good chance my son would notice and ask me about it. Indoctrination of children/kids (and arguably adults) happens in small doses... pronouns is your first step towards confusion and exposure to this ideology. No thanks EA. If they can at least toggle it on and off for parents in a game rated E for everyone, then that would be more acceptable.
Hopefully we hear back from Barry (EA community member).
So then don't have the conversation. You are the parent. You can certainly shut down any questions your kid has or indoctrinate your kid in whatever manner you see fit.
And if you don't want to shut your kid down, on the minimal chance your kids asks about a they/them pronoun, you could simply say "Some people like to be called by different things." And if the kid says "Why?" You can simply and truthfully give the answer most can give: "I don't know. I don't really understand."
Nah, I won't lie to my kids by saying I don't understand it. It is indoctrination and the path to brainwashing (as harmless as pronoun selection may seem). There is a time and place to have that conversation and would prefer they are much older when it takes place. Most kids understand the definition of boy and girl based on their reproductive organs (I wouldn't call sticking to that definition indoctrination as it has pretty much been the standard definition, for I don't know, probably a few thousand years).
Anyway, very curious to see how Barry will respond. Left him a few questions above.
