“Hi there nice to meet you. Would you mind sharing your pronouns so I can address you how you’d like to be preferred?”
Then respect whatever answer you were given and refer to them that way.
It’s not hard to support people’s identities, it just requires caring enough to respect them. You don’t even have to like it yourself. But if it seems really hard to respect a person’s identity it’s almost certain the problem doesn’t lie with them or their identity.
just don’t ask for gender? let the player either design a sprite or pick one and pick pronouns or just refer to the player with they/them. Sex is only a fact insofar as the collection of bodily features we commonly refer to as sex exist. the reference to it is still a social choice, and we could’ve just as easily picked another group of features, or none at all.

“genero” no es “genre” en esto contexto. Debes poner “gender”
