And, assuming that I have the third hand, this is only the tip of the problem with genderswap: sadly, in the majority of the cases genderswap means "everything in previously normal, balanced characters is suddenly about their gender". Which is irritating, yes.

This brought up some interesting thoughts for me. When gender swaps occur in pro media - especially visual media where it's easier to make gender apparent without overtly calling attention to it - I love, love, love it when it isn't commented upon at all and we get so see how gender need not be considered a personality trait or even necessarily relevant. At the same time, if someone does that kind of thing in fic, I just wind up thinking "What was the point of that? Why did you even bother? You just wrote the same character and tweaked the name a bit."

While I agree that making gender-swapped characters all about their gender is annoying and cringe-worthy, I suppose I find gender-swap fic that avoids exploring gender at all to be dull. I guess this is why, save a few rare exceptions - I'm not really into gender-swap?

Haha, I think I agree with you. Genderswap fic is some razor blade.
