BenRG:
FWIW, I noticed that Jeph gave Emmett eye-corner 'wings' today in panel 3, so they may be an early/pre-transition F2M transmale.
ankhtahr:
I would very much like if we could stop all the speculation about Emmett's gender until we get some actual information given by them or Jeph. All we know is that they're called Emmett, are very shy, Sam uses "they/them" for them, and they seem to have a crush on Sam. I feel like that's more than enough to talk about without having to speculate about very personal aspects of this character we don't know anything about.
Perfectly Reasonable:
I'm with ankhtahr on this. Of course we have to speculate wildly about -something- or the forum would be very boring.
Pronouns are an optional extra. It's possible to speak politely and grammatically without using them at all. But they can signal disrespect for gender choices. Or be perceived as such.
How do the muscles join up when that robutt is installed? Is there a special glue or something?
Is it cold in here?:
I was trying to figure out how to say that, with just the right balance between our being here to speculate and overanalyze and the sensitivities of our gender-nonstandard members, and without coming across as criticism.
Even if we find out Emmett is something other than cis, it usually won't be relevant to discussion.
Near Lurker:
I feel like Faye should encourage Emmett to ask Sam out, or at least to talk out their feelings about her. I mean, [insert C.S. Lewis quote here], but it seems clear from their subsequent conversation with Faye that they're into her. Even if Sam's not into enbies, it would be best to get everything on the table.
