Since we're all from different worlds and cultures I think there are a few things we should probably get sorted out as a group. First thing should probably be how to address each other. Go ahead and write your name/title/what you want to be called, your gender identifier if that's important to you, and pronouns to use for you.


Kai, he/him

Gender is bullshit.

You don't need it.

It's nice that it only seems to matter here if one wishes it to. But can I ask why you think that?

[not_scrap]

Because it's a trap.

Someone thinks they know you or what you're capable of because of it.

If your asshole owner called you a 'he', they wanted you to be treated like you had power, control. Authority. Same as every 'man'.

Did you?

[ That's a very strange concept to consider. Regardless of the pronouns used for him, he was never socialised as a man and has never experienced the associated male privilege. ]

No. I'm meant to obey and serve humans. Where I'm from, my artificial nature has been the sole determinant for how I'm treated.

[Oh no, rant unlocked. You poor thing. ]

Yeah that's just the bullshit game they make everyone play who isn't rich enough to be making the rules. You, me, my crew, you name it. We have to obey the stupid rules and do their stupid jobs so we get the privilege of not getting made dead. [Capitalism SUCKS, yo.]

So you never had like people treat you different than if you looked like a girl?
