I have been searching through articles on gender variables for the past week, and have only managed to accomplish one massive headache. Could someone explain the code for me? This is what I have been trying to put in startup \*if gender = “male” \*set gender1 “him” \*set gender2 “his” \*set gender3 etcetcetc \*else \*set gender1 “her” \*set gender2 “hers” \*set gender3 etcetcetc Any links to cool articles would be appreciated. I have not been able to find one that helps my confusion. ---

For gender variables for more than one person I change the \*set him “her” bits to things like \*set shim “her” … and here are some more general things about learning ChoiceScript that should explain pronoun variables as well > [@ChoiceScript Full Tutorial (finished!)](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/choicescript-full-tutorial-finished/16130): > > Link: [ChoiceScript Interactive Tutorial](http://www.maderealstories.com/games/ChoiceScriptTutorial.html) I’ve lashed together basically everything you could want from a ChoiceScript Tutorial.

Well after so long and so many iterations, I’m closing in on completing it. My intentions with this guide is to create something that, no matter your level of skill or computer knowledge, it can teach you the basics of ChoiceScript. For me to consider it truly ‘done’ though, I want to make sure it includes every thing that any aspiring ChoiceScript writer may want.
