I read a really interesting thread here about pursuing LIs outside of your sexuality (https://www.reddit.com/r/Choices/comments/elnybv/pursuing_lis_outside_of_your_sexuality/). I'd be interested to know what aspect of how your MC and/or LI identify is more/most important to you when deciding whether to play as a male or female MC and deciding who (if anyone) to romance (obviously this is heavily caveated with the fact that the Choices universe is, to a large extent, geared towards binary choices; although not every book! And that polls are always a bit derivative and simplistic given the extremely complex, rich tapestry of both gender and sexuality).
