...I am going to agree with the person above who said that genderswap is a complicated thing, and even if it's well-written, the reader may or may not have the same feelings about gender as the writer, which may make it seem pointless, or may cause them to miss the point the writer was trying to make.

I mean I'm thinking here of when a friend wrote a genderswap drabble in one of our shared fandoms about 15 years ago. I was like "Hahah, this is great, I love how everything is exactly the same!" And they were like "...Actually the point was that everything was completely different." And this very gracious friend talked to me about it, and, well, tl;dr and tmi but I learned some things about gender identity that I had never even considered.
