I am really curious about what is so important about being able to play two women ?
I don't know about Jemeryl, but me (female) and my girlfriend are both into RPGs and really excited about this game. Of course, D:OS would still be a great game for us if one player is forced to play a male character. Playing guys is not a problem at all, in fact that's what I did most time for the last 15 years and I'm okay with that. But IF (!!) a studio says "You know what? Play what you want" and it's actually happen (not just some PR gag), OF COURSE I'm really really glad and taking the opportunity to play the female/female constelation.
So I have to second this: THANK YOU, LARIAN, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Back then when I pledged for this game, I did it without knowing that this would happen. I just thought "Wow, this game looks awesome and I want you to make it" and look, now it's even better than I expected!
I knwo that female players are still not a real target group (not talking about "Barbie & her Pony"), especially not when they're gay, but just so that you know: We're there and we're very, very grateful for every studio like Larian.
PS: Sorry for my crappy English. (:
