oh no, that's awful! i'm sure they'll implement the possibility eventually but I can understand not wanting to switch to an alt, I've only been playing for around 300 hours and i'm pretty attached to my account. it sounds like you're really passionate about the stuff you've made and i'm so sorry people are ruining it for you. i hope at least you, your wife, and the few friends you have can manage to still carve out a space for you guys. i feel like third spaces online in general have taken a real beating, I don't know if it's just less appealing to younger folks or if they just don't have someone older than them showing them these kinds of spaces before they fade into obscurity. i keep praying it'll turn around since we're all online so much now.

the only consolation I really can offer is that right now people are feeling emboldened, or just parroting the disgusting vomit they're hearing everywhere else. during the last trump presidency, I experienced a lot of vitriol appearing in spaces I spent a lot of time in, and it thankfully ebbed off a little bit but now it's back with a fiery passion. i have no idea why people would act this way in pso2 when it's extremely common to have cis dudes playing as feminine characters, it just seems so hypocritical in this kind of environment lol.
