I have no complaint with N-Mario. I have, however, history with VC.
That said, if the issue continues to be pressed, I will say something. My patience has been worn thin.
On another note, tomorrow is my nephew's birthday! He's difficult to shop for, and being an old cantankerous child of worn-out stereotypes and old-fashioned parental methods, I just couldn't break myself of ingrained purchasing habits and bought him a gender-neutral gift.
My nephew likes pink, pigs, and playing with dolls. I couldn't find anything worthwhile of the former, and my upbringing wouldn't allow me to justify purchase of the latter. That was mainly due to "what would my half-brother think of this? Our encouraging of these interests?"
I have absolutely nothing against his interests and I encourage them. But, I'm not his parent, and I need to be mindful of what kind of message I send. Remaining gender-neutral is a viable option.
On that note, happy birthday, Dennis!
