We'll worry about aliens once we meet them. It's quite possible that they won't even adhere strictly to "animal, plant, fungus" divisions, either.

Robots are always "it" no matter what they've been decorated as in order to deceive you into thinking it's a "person".

Especially since the self-proclaimed enbees then pile onto that character, claim it as their own, and flood the associated fandom with their alphabet pride bullshit as they designate it as proof that they exist. Ignoring the fact that the character is neither human nor even of this world, and is playing by different biological, psychological, and possibly even existential rules that justify why it wouldn't have a proper sex. Whereas they're all just a bunch of regular loser humans who are functionally demanding that all the peasants address them by their proper titles OR ELSE.

Seems like a lose-lose situation to me. Not assigning a proper sex to a robot because it technically doesn't have one justifies the enbees' bullshit in their mind because they'll claim anything without a sex as their own. But at the same time, labeling robot characters as male or female simply because they're designed to look and act like men or women even though their sexual characteristics are purely aesthetic is in-line with troon and enbee ideology that says your sex is whatever you decide to identify as at the moment. So they win either way.

Honestly, I'm starting to wonder all these sci-fi stories that set out to humanize sapient robots and AIs did more damage to society than we realize. They took an issue that seriously never applied to reality at the time they were written and tried to make some feel-good story out of it without considering what the ramifications of that philosophy could be if idiots and opportunists decided to apply it to real life. After all, if this robot is a woman purely because it looks like one, then that means a man can become a woman if he looks like one too!

The only work I can think of that could justify say, robot girls being female would be Armitage III. The big thing in that anime was that the Thirds were gynoids that could conceive and bear human children.

I'd like to see who downvoted this. Those are the people we need to monitor in case of a robot uprising.
