How do I choose my characters biological makeup? Male or Female?
This makes no sense. I love progress, but not being able to clearly choose our characters biological makeup isn't progress, this is just flat out illogical. I get it, gender expression is important, but ignoring biology is flat out stupid and idiotic. Come on man.

There are two important concepts here:

1. Biology; also known as genital preference.
2. Gender Expression; for example, a trans female may be biologically male, but they express as a woman, hence they're a trans female. Nothing wrong with this, it's important they stay true to themselves.

The current implementation allows for Gender Expression, great, but it doesn't allow you to know for sure what your characters biological make up is, and for me that breaks immersion. I want to create a male character like me, and I want to know for sure the character is 100% male at the biological level.

(Huge shout out to JK Rowling, I fully support her logic.)

It's whatever you want it to be. It's your character

Female and Male selection is actually
Witch or Wizard.

You still get your biological preference.

Though you could say have a male build character with a female voice and be considered a Witch or vice versa.

You have the male and female preset types that then you can mess around with a little more, but it comes down to that final choice of selecting witch or wizard (which is equivalent to the male and female selections in other games)

You can make any character you want, whoever you want. You aren’t limited as much as you think.

Hmm, perhaps this could be acceptable. Can you show me a screenshot of where it clearly says I can pick a Wizard or Witch?

I mean a witch is female and a wizard is male, which I believe is in the character creator. Seems explanatory enough for me.

trans people are just culturally appropriating the other gender...

I am grown up, and as a grown adult, I can acknowledge that both biology and gender expression matter, that is logical. That's how an actual grown up would think.

Easy, imagine they're male.
Conan lets you choose your "size" if you know what I mean.
Games that dont also do that are COWARDS lol.

But, lets be honest. Harry Potter is a PG, family friendly children's franchise. We might be adults now, but it was always meant to be for kids.

Don't expect sexual content, whether that be kissing, girlfriends, or biological anatomy. i dont even expect there to be boobs in this game, not even fully covered boobs. i expect everyoen to be completely flat chested to be as family friendly as possible. and im fine with that.

its fine to call out the Woke nonsense, but harry potter was never going to the Conan of the wizarding world.

I just want to know that my character is biologically male, without a shadow of doubt, for immersion purposes.

Same can be said for nerds who cry about being "underrepresented" even though they're grossly over-represented.

Didn't Conan ban nudity? I miss adjusting my "member" size. :|
