Genderless individuals like NiGHTS and Amaterasu difficult for some people to fathom because there’s only one species in our reality that we’re the most in contact with and that species has very few unusual characteristics. We don’t have a wide berth of aliens and monsters to commune or socialize with and so humanity’s collective perception on identity and universal entity interaction is fairly limited. Once sci-fi and fantasy enters one’s purview, one is forced to ask and answer questions with no immediate basis in the real world. Subsequently, as soon as fantasy becomes reality, those questions and answers will become irrelevant.
 
Which is why you probably should do research on nonbinary yourself. :3

That’s not how identity works.

You sure its not because the writer wants to feel like he’s progressive?
 
I still say Dust Devil is a dude regardless. They just look the most male out of Zecora’s old friends.

@Red-Supernova  
Non-binary representation is important.
 
Also I don’t see how this is going to stop people from making porn. Being non-binary doesn’t mean they don’t have a dick or a vagina, and even if it did, that has NEVER stopped the porn artists.

@Background Pony #A3FA  
But why though? Did they want possible porn for Dust Devil to be impossible?

Dust Devil is nonbinary? Neat!

So they’re seriously making Dust Devil gender neutral?
