Just saying, manga weighs more than databooks from what I know. And you guys still need to make a distinction between sex and gender. Orochimaru is the only person who has ever hinted as somewhat having a gender identity different from what he was born as. His ASAB is male, but his gender identity is ambiguous. So for him, and for him only, we have three options: His ASAB (male), his body swapped sex (currently female) or what he himself says (ambiguous).

And then there's the fact that he's apparently actually a snake. And we don't know the sex of that snake. We only know the sex of its host body, which is apparently female at the moment. Or is it? Who are we to judge? Actually, doesn't the same go for all other characters? Wouldn't it be better to remove the sex from the infobox altogether? Lest we offend anyone?

This topic is a slippery slope, as you can see.
