Not only is Pathfinder 2e inclusive of many different genders and sexualitiies they have used a background system to eliminate the racial tropes that are problematic in Dungeons & Dragons.

Gods:

Shelyn encourages love that isn't limited by gender, or structures or norms of relationships, other than "sharing in passions and love". She is in a polyamorous relationship with the goddesses Desna, and Sarenrae.

Arshea both none and all genders (not sure what the word for that would be). "... a champion of the repressed and weary, providing mortals deliverance from their bonds." Encourages free love and sexuality, and worshippers often explore genders to "overcome repression and understand freedom" and to find the one that suits them.

Gozreh has two forms. One male, and one female. His male form is associated with the sky storm, and wind. Her female form is associated with the sea.

Alseta goddess of transitions. Apart from doors and portals and such, it also includes stages of life. Birthday, marriage and transitions to a more fitting body.
