But on the other hand people switch genders for other characters all the time so why is doing the same with her so bad?

But that can be annoying, though I don't think switching a machine's gender is as bad.

da - In this case, chances are the person doing the switching is doing it just to be contrary or ~edgy~ and people don't appreciate it.

it seems more likely to me that they just didn't think about it

malice, incompetence, etc

ayrt - my lenses for this a coloured by seeing tumblr rants about how gipsy is obviously a boy because ?(????)? and canon is wrong. I'm going to assume contrary asshole first everything else second - unless it is literally a Rule 63 AU

fair enough, i guess

If they wanted to label their fic "Gipsy Danger genderswap" or "always-a-boy!Gipsy" then more power to them. But just randomly swapping the pronouns without any indication of a motive other than failure to pay attention is annoying.

Those fics are usually marked with Rule 63 or Genderswap tags.
