I was thinking about playing the Doctor here in this setting. Just in case you don't know anything about Doctor Who, the Doctor is someone who's able to regenerate. Not all of these regenerations have to be male. Every time he dies he basically completely remakes his body and becomes a whole new person, just with the same memories. Its been canonically proven that some of these regenerations can flip flop between male and female.
In addition, I believe it was a book detail where Time Lords can often dream about being a different gender. As such, sexuality and even gender rules haven't had much weight on who the Doctor is and how he acts.
So I was curious... the only things I can think of that would be different if the Doctor were female from the beginning would be certain treatment in just a few of his adventures. His reactions to those situations, given Gallifrey's view on gender roles due to Time Lords being able to regenerate into different genders is a bit... different, would be pretty much the same. But I was also wondering if you would rather he be genderbent to female through all his regenerations or just the regeneration I'd be taking him from?
Either way I can't see anything being too different for him simply because of this unique sort of mindset and racial condition XD
SORRY IF NONE OF THAT MAKES SENSE /sob. Just lemme know if I need to explain anything more.
