I feel like everyone should at least see this so they can judge this massive fail for themselves.
You guys know I'm not very vocal about... anything really, but this is beyond stupid. I've never been very active there, but I've been logging onto dA since I was about fourteen years old, and within the next couple days I'll be shutting down the last account I'll have there (unless they magically get new management, issue an apology, and decide to treat humans like humans again).
In case you didn't click those links: basically deviantART and its staff refuse to believe there is anything other than "male" and "female" when it comes to one's gender - and they now require each user to pick one before they can make an account. They piled up this beautiful clusterfuck by throwing in the word "hermaphrodite" and somehow getting gender confused with sexuality.
I'm not saying everyone should up and leave the site, but...
They are clearly fuckheads, and I'm not going to encourage them by keeping my account active.
