===========================
WARNING - PLEASE READ FIRST
===========================
This modification was made with the US-English client in mind and will cause compatiblity issues with any other client language. While you can still use the mod with any game client, it will show english dialogue (subtitles) for any character my mod overrides. I would love to support these changes in all languages, but at this time I'm not quite sure how to go about that.

DESCRIPTION
===========
Based on the principle of jwvanderbeck's Free Love. Equal Love removed gender biased restrictions from various characters within the game opening up new rewards, interactions, and romances. With this modification, women will be able to have their kisses from Kaitlyn and Bella, bed the innocent Gheyna, couple with Anora, and even romance Morrigan. But fear not men, as you have not been forgotten. Men will be able to romance their beloved quirky Alistair and bed the hunter's apprentice, Cammen.

NOTE: This simply removed many of the unnecessary gender restrictions opening up new pathways to men and women characters. This does not remove any class or race restrictions.

===========
COMING SOON
===========
I am looking into editing the dialogue, altering the audio files, and resyncing the lip-sync to match any made changes. But at this point, it is very far away due to time constraints and human resouces.

HISTORY
=======
v1.06 - 26/03/2010 - Finally fixed Alistair so that a male warden can rule by his side. And pleasently, this also carries on into Awakening.
v1.05 - 21/03/2010 - Opened up flirting with Dwyn in Redcliffe for males as well as giving females the possibility to bed both Mardy and Teli. Do note that while females can bed Mardy, it should not trigger the quest "Of Noble Birth" for obvious gender differences, this is intentional on my part.
v1.04 - 20/03/2010 - Hopefully fixed Bella (FINALLY). Get your kissing on!
v1.03 - 20/03/2010 - Added support for Duncan during the Human Noble Origin as well as the dialogue that takes place during the Prelude.
v1.02 - 20/03/2010 - Rewrote some lines for Gheyna so that the player's lines are more gender neutral to help keep immersion.
v1.00 - 24/12/2009 - Support for Anora has finally been added. female players should be able to couple with Anora as any male player would.
v0.97 - 23/12/2009 - Initial Release with gender neutral support for Alistair, Morrigan, Bella, Cammen, and Gheyna.

It is NOT compatible with any modifications that alter the above listed files. Due to the nature of override modifications, its just not going to work out of the box without combining both modifications into one.

Known incompatibilities:
Improved Atmosphere - overwrites same dialogue files. To make compatible, you can use everything except for the dialogue files that Equal Love uses.
