Been looking over the previous responses to my posts and I want to ask 
another question:

  Does it really bother people to play a character of the opposite 
Gender?  I enjoyed Christminister, and was able to identify with the
character well, even though she was female.

  In SHOPPING, the game I am writing, while your gender isnt stated, the 
point of the game is to get your girlfriend out of the dressing room
after waiting for her for an hour.  Sounds simple, but Itll take you 
through uncharted reasons of time and space, into dreamland, to meet 
several famous fictional characters.  Youll discover why Sheers 
salespeople are always so cheerful, and what Veronica(Victoria's older 
and kinkier)'s secret really is...

  If I get enough feedback, in release two Ill make it so you can choose 
your gender, but for at least the first release that the way it is 
(mainly cause till I learn inform I dont think I have the talent to 
implement it)

Chidder
