Body types?
I'm messing with the character creator, there are 4 body types each one seems larger than the next. But its changing my sex? Like the large mommy female i want to make is just a man? and only shows me male options.

2 body types each gender.
Skinny and bulk

1 is short female, 2 is short male.
3 is tall female, 4 is tall male.

Short races don't have type 3 and 4 (obviously).

When choosing a body type, can you change your sex to the opposite sex while keeping the same body type?

What about those of us that identify as toaster ovens? Is my gender represented?

My option 3 by default was a dude with a vagina & tits, for some reason. I was very confused thinking to myself, why there's only one woman and 3 options looking like dudes.
That entire section of CC is confusing, tbh.

I don't think so. They separate gender/sex and "identity" for "modern audiences". If you chose identity of a female, for example, that will not automatically set your gender to be the same. It confused me to hell initially, bc I couldn't figure out why my Dragonborn looked like a dude when I flipped through identity options looking for female gender.

That is unfortunate. Another subculture concept pushed on to others.

I am not liking that I preferred the 1st slender looking body type of the dragonborn only for my male character wearing a bra despite not having tits like its just annoying... thank god underwear is removable.
Deactivate the clothing to see the changes on the body's better but 1 is short female, 2 is short male.
3 is tall female, 4 is tall male.

Im wondering if choosing for example the slender body type (dragonborn) or changing your sex will change the way npc talk to you or romance options animation. Have anyone test this? For example i played a thiefling yet he acts often quite femine despite being male.

It does not change diaglogue options. English is not that gender sensitive like other languages. Which is somewhat ironic...

"modern audiences" there have literally been trans women since mesopotamia

I agree with you, but the thread has been dead for over a year and this reply doesn't add anything of value to it ( Not that there was anything of value to begin with ). Necro-posting is generally considered rude.
