    ok. Sex is physical (Which sex organs do you have)

    Gender is mental. (Do I feel more feminine or masculine)

    You can have men who feel like they should be women. Many of them choose sexual reassignment surgery (sex changes) so that their sex reflects their gender.

    Gender does not equal sex.

    These are technical terms.

    Gender in most cases is used synonymously, however incorrectly, to sex.

    We're not trying to get technical about vocabulary here.

    /\

    my apologies. They are, however, technical terms. So using them interchangeably and incorrectly can throw people who are used to the jargon off. Also using the jargon to be very specific can confuse people: I'm sorry for the confusion.

    Ok, I think this discussion on gender has gotten away from the actual topic.

    In my opinion I think that the player should be able to decide whether everything (pylon crystals, archons, etc) change color as well or just the typical markings are one color and everything else is the standard blue. It's freedom of choice people! Who can argue against freedom?! ;)

    Lol, but I don't think that's going to happen. I know they did something close to that for DoW:DC, but I can't see them doing it for SC2.

    It just looks funny because the Pronoun "it" in the salt sentence of the 2nd paragraph has no antecedent. Making it hard to understand

    /\ gender in the previous sentence is the intended antecedent.

    So you are saying gender is a psychological disorder?!

    Ah wrong "it". Sorry. Having a sex and gender that do not coincide is considered a psychological disorder.

    edit: ok, I thought I was making sense, but apparently I have the dumb (hehehe) I'm off to bed.

    Yeah that happens late at night.

    Back to the topic at hand:
    I like the colored pylons and psi blades but a choice would probably be best.

    no see thats why they make it so u can choose your own color from a large list

    that way if you are protoss u dont have to be brown

    the red archon looks godly! ! ! ! imagine green and orange too
    is its attack red too?

    i say that when u select a pylon, if you are red, the pylon power matrix fields should be red too

    I'm betting on white archons more than anything. That's kind of like the thing you see in movies.

    This idea to change the Protoss zealot's blades into other colors is weird and disgusting too ! :upset:
    Even if it is to recognize the units from each other, when there are a lot of players who are fighting against themselves.
    They must be blue, like in the kinematics, like in the original SC Protoss units, etc .... Even the pylons are colored !! That's weird !

    Blizzard has to change that.

    Can someone report this suggestion to battle.net ? Thank you if you do that. :)

    I think this idea will grow into us. Because different colours on all buildings and units is pretty much necessary now, because otherwise it will be REALLY hard to see which units who are yours in combat. I just thought of something, mayby all zerg units and buildings will be coloured too, LOL pink zergs!!!
