- What your suggestions boil down to is more regulations regarding how
- the game is played. I don't care if Caitlin wants to pretend to be a
- man while she's in armor. I don't care what she calls herself. (I don't
- see why she thinks she needs to be a man to be in armor, but that's
- another kettle of worms.) Do you want to see Corpora written like "If
- the Crown Tourney entrant is a biological female fighting in a male
- persona, then she(he) must fight for a biological male being
- fought for in a female persona . During the reign, one of them must
- permanently assume female persona, and one of them must assume male
- persona...."?
