Your opinion matters. · 11:21pm Nov 1st, 2019
Hello to everyone who has followed me for my Bizarro Am Not in Equestria story. Firstly, Is like to take this time to thank you all for following, Favoriting, and liking my work. It's because of all of you that I continue to write and improve my writing, which is why I've decided to write this blog post.
I've had a problem with my story for a while that has really bothered me, despite it being a minor detail that I shouldn't care about. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't come to a decision on what to do, so I'm leaving this decision up to you, the ones who I strive to please.
Firstly, should I continue to capitalize Stallion and Mare in the story or should I use lowercase letters for those genders. Secondly, should I capitalize species names, such as Dragon, Pony, Unicorn, Pegasus, Earth pony, Changeling, etc, or should I leave it as dragon, pony, unicorn, so on and so forth. I understand that many people may not care one way or the other, but I still ask for your honest opinion on which one you would perfer.
Whatever gets the majority vote will be used as the new guideline for the story, and I'll go back and edit what I've already written. Thank you, and have a pleasant time.
Caps for species no caps for gender
Btw love your work
I have trouble with that too. I used to have a link to a really comprehensive guide, but this one seems good.
Votes:
Definitely no caps for genders.
No caps for species either. I'm finding that the guides that mention it say not to, and why make it complicated?
I say no for genders and no for species..
Since we dont need to capitalize male, female, or human.
Just use me as a tie breaker if need be; I’m impartial.
Alright, it seems a majority of people prefer no capitalizations. It'll take a while, but I'll try to fix every capitalization I can. Thank you all for voicing your opinions.

Ditto to that.
Personally I don't mind either way, however if I have to pick one I guess it would be no caps. Keep up the stellar work! Your story is still one of my favourites.
Doesn't matter either way if it's to add emphasis on certain things than yeah but whether it be a quote that one says or is written then no.
No cap for gender but I think cap for species looks better
