[Artemisia] Gender Bending Barons

[Stephanae Baker]

As an interesting side note (someone please correct me if I'm wrong),  
I think it's perfectly legal for (for example) a man with a female  
persona to become "queen" and have a woman consort with a male  
persona be the "king" as long as the individuals in question actually  
possess opposite sex body parts. I will, however, refrain from  
offering my opinion about the logic of this rule.
