Heh, I meant more ideas for characters with prosthetic limbs.
Those ideas are still terrible, of course

Well, if it isn't my old friend, Mr. McGreg! With a leg for an arm, and an arm for a leg!
Yeah, you're reading that wrong. Saints Row has never labelled you by gender. You were either Playa in SR1, Boss in SR2 and onwards or if a pronoun needed to be used it was they/them. So, no, if you make a woman you won't be called a man.Sorry for bad quality images... Look like if you choose female gender... They still call you a man..
No in SR2 in free roam they pronounce you as the girl if you remember that(in free roam) they are not only call yourself as the boss.. and they only call you a girl in SR2 well i guess i just make male character then. Ex:Brotherhood,samedi,Ronin,police,ultor,masako even refer you as"She" and "Her" i remember that when doing A better life Masako warn their allies with"Watch out she's armed" if you really digging into this game.

There has been a few slip ups in SR2,3,&4. The one that sticks with me is, "The Stilwater Butcherer is making HIS way towards Angel...". But that seems to be more common in cutscenes rather than open world gameplay.
In SR2, random pedestrians or enemies will refer to Playa as "He/She" and "Him/Her" based on Playa's voice. But I'm unsure how it works in 3&4.
But in most cutscenes throughout all 3 games, Playa is referred to as "They" and "Them", with only a few cutscenes using "He" and "Him", which was probably just overlooked.
But that post by "Saints Row" does raise some questions.
Like:
What if I want NPCs to refer to my character as Male/Female?
Will NPCs have any reaction to... Let's say: A well-built male wrestler wearing a tight minidress? Or will they just have a generic response that compliments the dress or something?
Basically, to me, it seems like Santo Ileso is going to be populated by NPCs that are completely desensitised and give Playa generic reactions.
NPC: Hey, you're rockin' that beard and handlebar moustache.
Female Playa: Thanks, I've been grooming it for months.
Don't get mew wrong, I think that would be an ideal society, but that would make the game feel too fabricated. Almost like a "Truman Show" scenario. No matter how different or unique you try to be, everyone just behaves as if things are normal.
So I hope the NPCs don't just give Playa generic reactions to unique behaviour, because that would be a let down.
I personally hope to see some typical "Karens" among the NPCs. That would make the game feel realistic.
I would sure hope so.
But would that not mean every voice actor that refers to Playa by pronouns would have to record most of their lines at least 3 times over for the game.
One each for at least "He/Him", "She/Her", & "They/Them"?
