Do changelings even have genders? They appear patterned after social insects, and social insects are usually asexual except for the breeding queens and drones. There may be no such thing as a “male” or “female” changeling other than Queen Chrysalis and (presumably) her male consorts.

Do we have any evidence that a female changeling can disguise itself as a male and vice versa? I don’t know if we do. I headcannon it as a glamour; they don’t truly transform but put a sensory illusion that they look and feel like whoever they’re disguised as.

Oh, I’m not going to argue about the changeling biological gender, I was referring to its gender identity; how it views itself. Now it’s entirely possible that Spike just assumed, but seeing as all the data we have at this point is “Spike referred to him as a he”, I’m just going to assume it is a male until further evidence presents itself.

This changeling’s gender is so mysterious we’re gonna need experts at solving mysteries…and who better than Mystery Inc.?

Except with changelings there are a lot of possible other scenarios. They can be completely genderless, herm, gendered with the option to change it whenever they wish, gendered when they reach a certain age, etc. Or if they’re like bees/ants/whatever, then drones are all infertile females. I guess nobody knows.

If you’re a friend with a trans person, you call them by their chosen gender, with the possible exception if you’re talking about something appropriately medical (if a M->F person gets prostate cancer, using a male pronoun while describing the condition may be appropriate).

For a sec there I thought Spike was being changeling’d or something because his sclera is gray. Then I realized it’s just transparent :Y
