Context: Omega is some clone in this new animated show and she's a girl. I haven't watched it but the wiki is pretty clear about her being genetically unaltered. Also trans fem clones in the series are not unprecedented :thonk-trans:

    Would there even be a difference between cis and trans people in a scifi world where they can alter your body down to the chromosomal level?

    Also, a question for the lore experts. Do star wars humans even have X/Y chromosomes? Are they inexplicably identical to modern earth humans in literally every way?

      Good point. If there was a machine that could change XX to XY and vice versa in an embryo, does that machine cause the baby to be trans or CIS?

      Our current framework is based on what we know to be possible. Who knows what Star Wars people believe with all the space magic and technology.

        CIS

        FYI, cis isn't an acronym.

        Well, we're talking about Star Wars, so I guess it actually is. But the meaning is very different lol

          Thanks for the correction, comrade. I always forget that it's not an acronym and my phone's spell checker seems to think I want to talk about Star Wars or the association of states of the former USSR.
