TV Tropes Rule 63

Manstander!

I laughed.

What's the feminine counterpart for Roy?

Royetta

Closest listed are Rowan and Rowanne.

How the Hell would Rule 63 work for me?

This is a serious question.

You would be male

tendollarwhore

@Bobby - I like Royetta.

Hmm, I guess I would be deeRoyetta

Awesome.

@whale - But rule 63 is "For every male character, there is a female counterpart."

I'm biologically male.

MY HEAD HURTS.

Technically the OP said "gender-swapped", so if we want to be pedantic about the "gender" bit, and ignore the conventional meaning of the set phrase and of "rule 63", no physical change would occur.

I'd be oridude, and I'd be a cranky gay guy with self-esteem issues.

Aren't you happy I'm me instead? :D

@Bobby - *sneezes* Sorry, I'm allergic to pedantry.

@Aiko, you're female so your rule 63 persona would be male.

I think Kerrah works as a woman's name as well as a man's. It rhymes with Hannah, after all.

Well shit.

Talby is a surname, so I would still just be Talby.

Attractive Vamp 22, I guess?

Attractive Vamp 88

because 88 is curvy

I'd be Carciofa, and I'd be... well, pretty much as I am now, I think, except female, I think.

Although, I am not sure about how a female me would have reacted to the male preponderance in scientific disciplines, and to the fact that male children are generally more expected to pursue them than females.

As a kid, I was about equally interested in science and in literature (perhaps I even favored the latter somehow): if girl!me had been encouraged to pursue the latter more than the former, I could see her making some different choices. Or perhaps she'd get annoyed at the pressure and push back harder. I dunno.

Idla 20 would be almost exactly the same, except better dressed.

Phoenixory(?) would probably be even shyer than current me is now, and would most likely have a job at a library. She'd also be much more likely to wear her glasses, and a little less prone to snarking. Just a little.

Since I have no gender identity, how would this work for me?

Daca; according to my trope page and discussions on the Gender Swap forum game is an Action Girl, loves shoes, possibly an Amazonian Beauty but refuses to say because of Darkclaw, Good Bad Girl, The Lad-ette, full of Les Yay (due to being a lesbian), Meganekko, prone to Poke the Poodle, a Plucky Girl, a Statuesque Stunner at six feet and an inch and says "Totally" a lot! Oh; that and she's probably a Blood Knight and a Ditzy Genius.

And although I'd have no way of knowing this from myself; I'm gonna say she is a case of Buxom Is Better; (because I can).

In That Human's case; I say That Human should be allowed to make up both a male and female That Human to keep That Human's mystery...mysterious.

They would be... This (Wo)Man?

With the brackets; you still stay a mystery, since either woman or man can be implied due to the brackets.
