Summary

0011207: Enhancement: alias or rename creature sex tokens

Description

[MALE] and [FEMALE] have caused confusion in the past, leading to still-existing minor bugs like female seahorses giving birth and the [ORIENTATION] tag looking at those tags rather than at castes.

It would be nice to have an alternate name available for these two tags to be able to correctly specify the seahorse castes without it looking like a typo, for example.

Tags

No tags attached.

Notes
(0039664) noxiilarxene (reporter) 2020-01-12 17:52	I'd say this is more of a tweak than a bug, other than the seahorse issue. I'd promote using the Forums for things like that (and related, separating pronouns from sex tags). Probably should use [CAN_GET_PREGNANT] and [CAN_MAKE_PREGNANT]?
