Considering her genius in biology, she can probably be whatever she wishes in regard to both gender and biologic sex.
It’s weird and a little creepy how people only jump to this conclusion because she’s the only female who doesn’t conform to the “Glen Keane Girl Face” house style.
I mean, I’d love a transgender hero, but don’t be weird and make weird assumptions about it. For instance, don’t assume you can clock a trans woman just by the fact that she has a slightly more angular jaw. That does both trans women and gender-nonconforming cis women a disservice.

Right, as Six brought up above, that’s actually pretty messed up to make this types of assumptions when there are lots of androgynous women.
I don’t even know where this came from.
“SHE HAS SHORT HAIR AND A DEEP VOICE SHE MUST BE TRANS”

“Biology’s habits are hard to break…” … to me, that quip just tells me she wants to be rid of this human crap all together. I side on androgyny over trans.

Well, that’s literally the forum’s first reaction shortly after her Blizzcon 2017 announcement.
“Is Moira trans?!??!”

If she can transfer her consciousness into an omnic body… I’m thinking she would do it in a heartbeat.

Actually is was more like “WOAH ARE THOSE ZEN ORBS SO UNORIGINALL XDDDD BLIZZARD” and boy was it irritating.
I’d hate to see folks like that during Orisa reveal…
They probably couldn’t make threads about it because they were convulsing on the floor from the mental overload.
I thought the general consensus was that Moira was female
We don’t need represenation purely for the sake of represenation. It’s just like having ‘international black day’. If you really want to be accepted into society and treated as normal, you shouldn’t do things that make it seem as though you’re outliers.
Why is this even a post on a forums for a video game ??? at what point do you ppl stop all this non sense ITS A VIDEO GAME

Pretty much.
She honestly is pretty original though with how she’s got a throwable barrier and personal anti-cc + damage resistance which is great for a tank.

She’s the kind of person who wouldn’t care. She’ll be anything you want her to be, so long as it helps her research. That’s literally why she’s with Talon, they were more beneficial to her than Overwatch was.
What do you mean “most likely”? Theres no debate, shes not trans.
The game is fine (well, you know, as far as this is concerned). It’s the forum that’s unbearable sometimes. That said, this thread, while unnecessary imo, is reasonable enough.
Funny, no other game forum I’ve frequented has had so much Discourse™ so regularly.
But she is definitely the ones that cut off your parts for the lulz
This hurts to read sometimes.
