Is it really genderswapping when the characters are canonically nonbinary and only sometimes presenting as swishy gay men to avoid freaking out the humans?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah that's what I keep coming back to. Aziraphale and Crowley are canonically genderless. I don't see the issue here. You want Aziraphale to make an Effort to be female-presenting and use she/her pronouns, go to town it doesn't make either character less queer. That's one of the reasons I've enjoyed the Good Omens fandom so much is the variety of interpretations for this pairing. m/m, m/f, f/f, they/them, genderfluid, ace, demi, gay and any all combinations there in. It's all wonderful. it's not all wonderfully written of course this is still fandom after all, but I love seeing so many people encouraged to explore orientation and gender expression.

Then what is the point of not writing the character exactly as presented in the source? Does the swishy gay nonbinary presentation freak you out? Gotta make that more trad-fem for relatability?

[(Anonymous)]

Because it's going to be an original work and OP should write whatever floats their boat?

This particular thread isn't really about the OP's situation, and is more about genderswapping in general and genderswapping GO characters in particular. The OP should have really just said, "I like the dynamics between these characters so I'm basing my original romance novel on them except my characters are het," and no one would have batted an eyelash, but nope, they went with the homophobia bait.
