    What does this mean? The character looks very androgynous and could be either male or female, trans or cis. Is this referring to how gender-neutral-looking people get assumed to be male?

      I thought the picture was a woman, not even a little bit androgynous. Interesting how interpretations vary.

      That’s a custom character in Baldur’s Gate 3. Gender isn’t determined by appearance in the game, but this is definitely a base model used for female characters. If we could zoom out a bit, you’d see some extremely improbable breasts sticking out.

      Zoom out a little more and there are lots of options for what could be downstairs. But as far as I know the NPCs that use this base model are exclusively female. So as far as the meme is concerned, I believe it’s supposed to look outwardly like a woman.
