The Federation isn't as open-minded as people like to think. Just look at Bashir about how he was afraid of coming out of the closet for being a Genetically Engineered human. The Federation was happy with keeping Bashir as a happy idiot than a highly productive member of society. The Federation supports diversity just as long as it deals with aliens and not different variations of human beyond the norm.
Now you just spoiled DS9 for me... I am at season 3 only... Remember, there are people who play this game and only started watching Trek series simultaneously with playing the game... ~.~
Oh, and also.. Genetic engineering is frowned upon iirc.. so no wonder if he was hesitant to come out of closet. and yet, I do not see any societal baggage norms being even mentioned in Trek. Just saying...

Suggestion: Stop reading these spoiler-rich forums, then. It's not like anyone revealed the plot to last night's episode of a current hit show.
Remember, there are people here who watched the first Star Trek shows just shy of 50 years ago...what's the "Statute of Limitations" on spoilers?
Because they probably cured that kind of stuff, here is what I mean. They are several hundred years into the future, it's VERY likely they detect even the smallest kind of imperfections in children, like small neural development issues that would one day turn into gender confusion and such and probably filter it out. Nobody is born "wanting to be the opposite gender" when they grow up anymore.
And frankly I'm glad cryptic ain't giving a rat's butt about the SJWs. Games are not and should never be their soapbox.
That comes very close to genetical engineering what you're referring to. As such it would be outlawed by Federation regulations for good reasons (Kaaaaaaaahn).

Don't worry he didn't give away too much. There's more to it
The character creator should you just let create the character, then you label the gender and then give it a name. We should have male, female and custom. The latter is for aliens, species that have just one sex or species that have more than two sexes.
The differences between human males and females are not that great irl, so a good game character creator should us let create a male that does look like a female and a female that looks a bit like a male.

Why can we have transgenders?
Why can't we all mutate into Odo?
Just 'coz they said no ... or haven't thought about it.
I hope STO get's better ...
