I think the idea of gender 'non-binary' works very well in fiction. Weather it's a shape-shifter or a race where there is no gender I think it's a very intriguing concept. Irl it's just straight-up nonsense.

It was a sex-changing alien lizard? or something non-mammalian. I didn't have an issue with it and I even thought it undermined RL "non-binary" advocates. The same with the Stephen Universe Gems. They're alien rocks that don't reproduce sexually. It's actually possible for them to be "non-binary"... unlike you. I never understood how this was "representation."

Exactly. You're not non-binary, dude, just like you're not a sentient rock.

Are you talking about that disgusting Japanese anime tentacle rape porn all the TiMs and weirdos watch?
