    I fail to see the issue. Rarity simply represents a normal user. Why would we need an icon to state people's gender?

    Rarity, Royal Guards, and Admins are all just to show someone's status. It doesn't display their gender in any way.

    If you want to know someone's gender on the chat, you'll likely have to either ask them or go to their profile.

    I don't think we need yet another excuse for users to start going: "OMGZ U REEL GURL, BE MEH GF? Pliz!"
    Also, all the main six are girls, the show was (originally) aimed at young girls - if you watch it despite that, surely a girl icon in a chat isn't going to be that big of a deal?
