How I choose to make my character look has no impact on anyone else’s experience.

Tell that to the idiots making mods like this. Not that it changes anything for anyone but themselves, but it does promote bullshit bigotry over a menu selection of all things and fully deserves to be shut down.

And none of this is about "public validation". It's about having even just one more avenue for people that don't happen to be cis white males to make a character for themselves that's more relatable. More options should always be welcome. It hurts nobody and lifts up many.

Yup, I agree. The mods exist to push a narrative and make others angry, that's it.

I could understand if Bethesda made the MC trans with no way to change that, but expanding role play options is never a bad thing IMO.
