Morrowind talk:Gender

Rewrite Note

Under the "Other" section, it is mentioned to be inappropriate if a male character (Bosmer, for example) makes romantic or sexual remarks at the player character if one's gender is male. I move that this homophobia be rewritten. --217.157.160.83 15:10, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

If you want to rewrite it, go ahead, but I don't think it's homophobic because it is odd. The dialogue rules mean that every single Bosmer you meet can tell you how attractive you are no matter what your gender is. That would be like discovering that every Scot (for instance) is gay and open about it. Feel free to change the text but the bizarre responses are worth mentioning. rpeh •T•C•E• 15:56, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

mana/health

im pretty sure females have more magicka and less health than males, but that might be due to lower and higher intelligences but might be worth mentioning (Eddie the head 14:28, 24 April 2011 (UTC))

These differences are all mentioned on the Races page, since it is race-dependent. --Brf 14:31, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Male Greeting Bug

I've been playing as a male Altmer on an unmodded Morrowind (latest patch), and I've noticed that (with a high disposition) male Redguard and other male Altmer will occasionally comment with female oriented greetings, "Not a lot of pretty ladies..." and "Please, madame..." respectively. Has anyone else noticed this bug? Peterpeterohsofeeter 19:01, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

The "Not a lot of pretty ladies..." one isn't a bug. It's an "idle" dialogue, not a PC-specific one, so the NPC is just voicing his thoughts. The other one is a bug. The condition tests that the NPC is a male and that the "Same Sex" function evaluates to "1" rather than 0. rpeh •T•C•E• 19:13, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Got it. So it can be assumed that it would require a patch to correct this and can't be solved in-game? Peterpeterohsofeeter 06:09, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

EDIT: This bug was fixed by the Morrowind Patch Project. Peterpeterohsofeeter 12:37, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

It was not. There are still some NPCs that respond incorrectly. --Brf 14:09, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

i had the same thing happen. this bug affects ALL savegames. people just dont notice it sometimes.

this bug ONLY affects MALE breton npcs and MALE high elf npcs. all other npcs work fine. its not a bug on your character but on the greeting of these two npc sets. so it cannot be avoided. since its only these 2 races and genders it happens with youll rarely hear it. — Unsigned comment by 77.188.16.151 (talk) at 21:14 on 21 September 2013
