@RandomCatLover, that is your choice, but be aware it could offend someone.

Best to play smart. The body make look at DNA, the blueprints of life, and say "There is a "Y" therefore this is a boy" or "There is no 'Y', this is a girl" but the mind goes "I'll be what I want to be thank you!". ITs something that humans do, spirituality may be in our DNA possibly, but religion or a religion isn't. Much the way, its something we've chosen or were raised into. Best advice is to take note of the others though and play it smarter then that.

I often use neutral terms like "they", "their", etc rather then genders when referring to producers. The Vocaloids... Aside from VY1 and VY2 which although are male and female vocals are "it"s by nature are all defined genders and are safe to use "he", "she", etc as their also not real people, but things. However, producers are real people and real people have feelings which can be offended. I find its safer to just use neutral terms as even if you know a gender of a producer anyway you can screw up and forget. Its the safest play.

I'm just saying, perhaps you should use some "tact" when speaking of producers.

@Everyone else... My experience of Iroha on the gender issues is that if you want to get work done, people will make more of a fuss on gender then they will on anything else. Everyone is human and they make mistakes, they may not word it well, etc. Unless RandomCatLover turns around and hates on Ghost for their choice of identification, the alarm is only a small one for now. We're likely going to make more of a fuss over it then Ghost would themselves, and likely someone would get hurt.

Don't turn a blind eye, its all I'm saying, but also don't go straight for pitch forks and torches either. Both things are wrong to do.
