The Joker is easily more sympathetic than other characters. The breakdown he had the one time that the Martian Manhunter telepathically forced him to realize how much suffering he was causing, for example, was pretty well done (and on the flipside, his speech during that otherwise horrible Emperor Joker bit where he explains why he's planning to wink all of Existence, well, out of it).

OK, I know you were tryingto say that an AntroPC's gender is a fluid thing, but Gender Fluid just sounds too much like happy batter.

I dunno, i'm getting confused at all the "alternative" genders out there.

I remember at one party, I was like: "Wait, I don't call you transgendered, just ...in transition?"
