** Some of the Western fanbase theorizes that Dororo is {{transgender}} (specifically [[spoiler:a transgender boy]]); the child identifies and refers to herself as a boy after being RaisedAsTheOppositeGender, so they see it as fitting the definition of "identifying as a gender different than the one assigned at birth." Other theories have it as Dororo subconsciously realizing what dangers await her if she lives as a girl in their CrapsackWorld of an era, so she just lets people presume she's male.

** Some of the Western fanbase theorizes that How Dororo is {{transgender}} (specifically [[spoiler:a transgender boy]]); handles [[spoiler:discovering they're a girl]] changes depending on the child identifies fan group. Some think Dororo takes to it easily, some think Dororo never truly gives the identity up, and refers to herself as a boy after being RaisedAsTheOppositeGender, so they see it as fitting the definition of "identifying as a gender different than the one assigned at birth." Other theories still others have it as that Dororo subconsciously realizing realized what dangers await her if she [[spoiler:she lives as a girl in their CrapsackWorld of an era, era]], so she just lets people presume she's male.the masculine presentation is a safety net. There's another major fandom interpretation, see in Trans Audience Interpretation below.

* TransAudienceInterpretation: Around the 2010s, the title character often got pegged as a fledgling trans boy, due to being RaisedAsTheOppositeGender since birth for protection and even after figuring out her birth sex from Hyakkimaru sees no problem in identifying as she has been, at least in the original manga. She also showed some discomfort in how Hyakkimaru treats her after discovering she's female. Many adaptations make clear that Dororo eventually identifies as her birth sex, however.
