* In ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossing'', you can wear any clothing or accessory items, even those that are obviously intended for the opposite sex. This extends in subsequent games to even unlocking the ability to have girl's hairstyles or shoes on a boy or vice versa. The only thing you can't do is change the face style or actually use the opposite sex clothes model (that is, putting a dress on a boy character will make it still look like a shirt, and putting a shirt on a girl will still look like a dress)- though, this last restriction is removed in the 3DS version, which has skirts, pants, and dresses as separate kinds of items.
** Blanca, the cat with the blank face, is evidently a male, even though "Blanca" is the feminine form, the gibber-clip is the highest-pitched one used for females, and the outfit is the female skirt. So, uh....there you go.

** Also, Gracie is a guy in the Japanese versions.
