While it is nice to be able to choose the main character gender (and other
features, as I don't identify well with thin blondes either) it seems weird
to jump into that conclusion. I mean, books nearly never allow that choice
at all, there is just both kind of books and no one goes "Eeek, they are
discriminating against women by having a male protagonist".

In my opinion, the best way to go about it regarding the game mentioned
would be for a  technically savvy woman to make a patch allowing gender
choice.
