@shauna@social.coop I actually kinda used this concept for making a character select screen in a videogame: rather than have an idealised "man" or "woman" image, the character gender selector is a planetary chart and if you select man it highlights the Mars orbit, if you select a woman it highlights Venus, and if you choose a nonbinary character it highlights all the other orbits at the same time

@shauna@social.coop It also implies that - being from earth - I am neither male nor female. Which will be a surprise to my wife. We thought the beard was a dead giveaway.

@shauna@social.coop for the record, I want to be from Pluto and will not be disused by any astronomers telling me it’s not a planet.
