So I just received one of the most insulting personal rejections I've ever seen. Not insulting to me, but insulting to my story.
I was told that I should have made one of the characters in Reformatted Soul male.
Granted, I did strip out the non-binary pronouns to make the story more palatable for the market, but seriously. What the fuck?

I'm trying not to be too pissed off about it. He didn't like my story, and that's okay. He's also a sexist douchenozzle who doesn't think robots can have genders. (He put EDEN's gender in scare quotes in the rejection.) It's just really discouraging because I gave him the watered down version of the story.
