Change is good! Even in WoW!

Alright now, I am a HUGE fan of World of Warcraft, I mean I play several characters on there. I enjoy the questing, the auction house, the instances- all that jazz.

WoW, of course, is a production Blizzard- Who, and I quote, has put out excellent games throughout the years! From Starcraft to Diablo to Warcraft. I have always been a fan and they have never disappointed!

Well, now all that ass kissing aside; I wanted to highlight on a particular item that has caught my eye many a times on the main WoW login screen. Y'know, the screen you see before you hit play? If not, look below (Exhibit A):

That screen, it varies now and again each time you double click your icon. On this particular screen, I want you to take a look at the ad regarding "Character Re-Customization". Now, I stared at this particular ad for several days, and I thought to myself; 'You know, that is actually a nice way of saying "Sex Change"! But why on earth wouldn't they just put, "Sex Change"?? Such as below (Exihibit B):

Well of course because of all the 'innocent' little kiddies that play the game and what not. However! Is this not much more easier to say?? I do agree it is blunt, but what are you doing when you preform the "Character Re-customization"? Duh! You're CHANGING your SEX!

Granted, many players of Warcraft would never in their life get a sex change, not stabbing at those who do, hey you are your own person so don't dog me on that! However, you will not hesitate to change your toon's gender now will you?

Lvl 70 Warlock: "Yeah, I'm tired of being a dude. Whoa! I can change my sex and have boobs and a pussy?! Hell yeah!"

Ten levels later after the Warlock hits 80....

Lvl 80 Warlock: "So the boobs are too heavy and I miss my dick. I know! I'll go back to being a dude!"

Know what kind of feeling I get when I see this screen? "Hey! It's OK if I want to become a dude! I can just go and get new parts!"

Thank you Blizzard. Thank you for giving us the encouragement and 'balls' to want to change our sex should we feel necessary to do so. No matter what the outcome may be afterward, the message stands clear:

"It's OK to change your sex!"
