There's a difference. Where did anyone call you sexist though? Did anyone actually type "Hublijhar is a sexist and hates women!!!!1111"? No.

@A man of questionable sanity That's what I'm saying.

As cool as the idea of a "male" gem sounds it is literally the most unnecesary thing ever. All the gems could be "female" but they're all going to be completely different (As evident by the different personality types we've seen so far). We've literally seen 7 gems, not counting Steven since he's a hybrid, that were completely different. Making a gem "male" wouldn't add diversity to the story because guess what?! It's already incredibly diverse. Yes, Strong In The Real Way called me sexist in the comments of the page. But for the final time, my point was not to say, "we need a male gem", it was to get people to stop listing yellow diamond as female because we don't know what it is, you can see that clearly if you look at the main discussion point. I truly am sorry if you believe I think there needs to be a male gem, that was not the point of this thread. Since that was directed towards me I thought I'd respond.

What does what I say have anything to do with what Strong In The Real says or vice versa? Am I him/her? No. Did I call you sexist? No. I said you made it seem like having a male-pronouned gem is a necissity to keep the show from being boring or whatever you think would happen if all the gems were female-pronouned without any actually reasoning behind that other than they'd bring "diversity" to Steven Universe. THAT'S what I said. You still never fully answered what you meant by diversity. What could a male-pronouned gem bring to the table that a female-pronouned couldn't?

That's all I said.
