A Gender & Let's talk about Ontos gender too

I've always wanted to talk about this for a while, and it really bothers me how A's existence is always revolved around her/their gender. it gets even worse since art books reveals. That A character is just being reduced to her gender identity, make me sad, actually.

I know not everyone agrees with me, and that's fine, but I just want to share my thoughts on this matter. I feel A's gender doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things. (I watched Luxin's video, and I feel "A is a woman whose gender is a Monado" describes it much better.) Also, A being a "woman" doesn't erase any queerness in it.

For a heads-up, I think of A as a bigender woman. This also applies to any Ontos instantiation—they are bigender, including Alvis, whom I see as a bigender man. For pronouns, I use she/her just for convenience and sometimes they/them.

Disclaimer: this is just my interpretation & not intended as a fact, This is purely my analysis based on canon material in the game & side-material such as art books.
