This is kind of probably mostly off-topic, but oyu know what fucking annoys me?

In gender-swap fics, when the 63'd character starts off as "he", gets switched into a female body, and then is promptly referred to in the narrative and by the other characters as "she". (Although presumably that would be IC for some characters, but the narrative has no excuse.) Even worse is when the character spends the rest of the story bemoaning his/her fate and is willing to do almost anything to restore his/her original body.

I'm fine with gender-swap fics as a whole. They can be fun and, in some canons more than others, an interesting insight into the minds of everyone involved. Plus a neat plot device. But if "she" was male five minutes ago, and "her" gender (i.e. the one he identifies as, not is physically) is completely the same, why in the world do the pronouns change? I mean, isn't the person in basically the same situation as trans* people, except with magic or whatever attached?

THIS. SO MUCH THIS. If I woke up tomorrow in a male body, I wouldn't suddenly start thinking of myself as male. I'd still be a woman. And in fic where the character's physical sex simply got magically changed and they're struggling to get back to their original body, it doesn't make sense for them to suddenly switch pronouns.
