Obviously it's semantic, given the character is fictional and can't correct you or get personally offended. But like I said, it's rude to decide what pronouns you're going to use for someone, especially when it's known what pronouns they prefer you use for them. The implication is that you wouldn't hesitate to misgender a real person if you felt so inclined. For a slightly more extreme example, imagine if you were to call a fictional black person the n-word. What would you expect people to think of you if they knew this about you? --- CyricZ He/him <cite>CyricZ posted [p:964926260] in Capital G ...
