I know the first is a tomboy which is a type of girl personality, assuming the second is the same. Loki is a Norse god so don't even apply human rules them and wtf is the 4th image?
If they are paying to push this, it means even the idiots that do it for free are realising it's a losing front, which is good the sooner all this multiple gender shit is in the trash, the sooner the west at least can move onto rebuilding.
Next in the ultimate heel-turn they'll be pointing to droids in Star Wars and claiming "the CHUDS can't accept that droids are genderless!"
it's interesting to think about. droids indeed do not reproduce, so technically speaking a male and female sex would not apply. protocol droids will have male or female voices, but they will otherwise act and are built the same. Since they are built to be humanoid and social, this makes sense.
droids like R2D2 and other utility and astromech droids don't have a gender because they're fucking robots. they're not even supposed to resemble anything human or be social. if memory serves, they are never even referred to with pronouns, but rather they are always referred to with their designation or a shorthand of their designation. "c-3po, 3PO, r2d2, r2, etc." droids that do have names given to them, such as Chopper, are also referred to by name or nickname, and never with a pronoun.
asking what r2d2's gender is is like asking what Google's gender is. both Google and R2D2 do not have one because they're not alive. They aren't people.
As I remember it in the EU droid 'gender' was about on par with why youd use a male or female voice for a computer prompt or public announcement- that is, entirely utilitarian to the function it serves.
