Okay then, if you're a guy, then try putting yourself in maybe your sister's or mother's shoes and clothes, try dealing with the things she does daily, from her personal feelings to bodily functions and so forth. I'm not presuming to know any of what goes on with your family, I'm simply trying to say that if you see my point you'll see why most of us have problems with Desmond reliving any of his female Ancestor's memories. It brings up not only questions of both anatomical origin but character-personal origin that I doubt that the gaming community is ready for, but conflicts in such as well, not to mention possible conflicts in story. The overall goal of the whole Animus idea in Assassin's Creed at this point is training Desmond to be the ultimate Assassin to fight against the Templar's, not profoundly confuse him (and possibly the player) with such a gender crossover. I don't know if I fully explained myself on this, but I hope you see the point I was trying to make.
