But Oro has stated that (and I'm using he only for simplicity sake) he does not conform to either gender. Because overtime, body swapping has landed male and female forms. Meaning that both are true. And we have seen this since the start. Oro has never been male, we have seen female forms and male forms in equal measure. Just because by birth Oro had a male form, doesn't mean that now he's stuck with that. In fact, his true form is a mass of snakes. And we can not look at pronouns because translations are iffy between Japanese and English.

The fact that Oro doesn't stick to one and is fluid is the entire point of the character. Change, not being subject to human/social constructs. Swapping bodies and forms until it is no longer something as linear as male or female. The fact that Oro wouldn't tick a box shows that "male" is therefore incorrect. If Oro was male, why would it be an issue, and brought up repeatedly? The question has been asked many times. We have two answers from oro.

One: it is inconsequential Two: there have been times I was a man, and times a woman, and others something not of this world.

Even if he was born male, that doesn't mean that the character can't become non binary. It doesn't matter what was in his pants as a kid. Especially considering Oro is the face of change and body swapping.
