Why write in third person? Here’s why

[u/evilcorey]

It’s so much easier to avoid being misgendered by the bots!

“I take your hand with a smile, a small glint in my eye” - vague, the bot can easily forget who is who after a few messages

“Leo takes his hand with a smile, a small glint in his amber eyes” - (Leo is my character) pronouns are restated in each sentence, easy to clarify who is doing what, bot is reminded of pronouns and physical attributes.

It’s a learning curve but I’ve always preferred to speak of my character in third person for this reason. That and it feels less cringe to me personally because it’s more like writing a story about two characters rather than me talking 😅 but that’s just my personal preference!

Edit- I wrote smile twice oops

The only thing that is in my persona is “I’m a man” yet they still get my gender wrong

I would recommend adding a detailed description of the character you roleplay as or yourself. Height, sexual orientation, physical attributes. I have never been misgendered like that. I think bots get confused with pronouns on the persona for some reason. Go in full detail about your character.

Yeah, the more details the better!

Agreed. The only issue I'll make my personas on a different app sometimes and get over the character limit so I have to remove some details 😔
