@Sajainta: Consider it a compromise. I was going to simply use "he"/"him" (no quotation marks), but figured that would be taking it a little too far. Besides, as I understand it, he/she is still, at this point in time, biologically male. And when it comes to determining gender, biology is what I go by.
@Lance VII: I'm not attempting to call that into question. I don't know him/her personally and therefore can't attest to the quality of his/her character beyond what I've seen. I'll assume that what you're saying is true, because I see no reason to believe that it isn't. You people seem to think that I have some sort of personal vendetta against PSZ. I don't. All I ask is that he/she deal with his/her private, personal issues in a way that doesn't involve an entire forum dedicated to something completely unrelated.
@Lord J Esq: This entire thread is harassment?? This entire thread was STARTED BY PSZ, TO DISCUSS HIM/HERSELF. I'm sorry some of the responses he/she got were not of the "accepting" variety that he/she might have hoped for. Except I'm not really sorry, because I don't think this is an appropriate topic, I don't think this is an appropriate thread, and if nothing else, I don't regret taking the position that nearly everyone PSZ will have to contend with in the foreseeable future will most likely take. Look, I AM sorry if PSZ is "going through some difficult times". That's a shame. I sincerely hope he/she finds a healthier, more effective way of dealing with it. (Like, say, therapy.) But I've "gone through some difficult times" too. Maybe I haven't had to deal with the same type of difficulties, but the difficult times I've been through were pretty fucking difficult nonetheless. If you've never "been through some difficult times", then damn, you're pretty lucky. At no point during my own struggles have I gone into a fan community for a game/movie/anime, announced that I am LITERALLY a character from that story, and requested that I be treated as such. The reason I have never done this has less to do with the fact that I haven't grappled with major issues of sexual identity than the fact that it's absurd, obnoxious, vain, and to put it in "bigoted" layman's terms, incredibly fucking stupid. I'm not going to get into the topic of transsexuality because that's really a private issue, my own opinions on it just as much as anything. But I absolutely am going to make noise about the roleplaying thing, because it's obnoxious, it's discomforting, and as can be seen on this very thread, it's tearing this community apart.
