I'll copy-and-paste what I wrote on Ulti's wall and add on to that.

To some, including myself, it seems very ridiculous to have this requirement. Yes, the Omnitrix alien can technically be used by another gender (other than male or female). Does that mean the series creator is going to have the other gender use this alien in a series? No, it doesn't. If anything, this requirement shouldn't even be enforced. It should be preferred, but it shouldn't be mandatory.

If you want more reasons as to why this restriction shouldn't exist, look at BTP. It has its flaws, and it does mention opposite gender Omnitrix aliens (Gwen 10), but does it have this requirement? No, it doesn't. If BTP does not have it, then why do we? It's baffling to see that a wiki with that many restrictions actually doesn't care about something like that, and to see that a wiki with more "freedom" than its counterpart restricts something that its counterpart allowed.

There's also the fact that this rule has not been enforced until now. All it took was a minor update, and boom! Something as insignificant as this rule was suddenly enforced. If this hasn't been enforced until now, why the wait? Was it because no one actually knew it existed? Or was it because none of the administrators actually cared enough to enforce it?

Voting ends on 3/8/17.
