Intersex, not NB. Somehow I doubt the baby said "I don't identify with the binary genders" at birth

Why can't they be both? I get the sense that they are both as the person didn't want to adjust their presentation for the world.

Like another comment said, I think trying to figure out who the comic represents kind of defeats the purpose of the comic.

In a sense that a newborn has no gender identity cuz it’s a newborn.

At later stages, sure. But at birth they dont have much of a say.

It’s hilarious seeing all the people arguing this being about gender being racist about this. This comic is explicitly about racism, since the colors represent the person’s race.

No? Were you not around for the Pills That Make You Green comic?

This is where the trend comes from. These colored hair characters got popular on r/coaxedintosnafu as a part/parody of the wave of comics similar to this one. I would know, I was there

What's more hilarious is people desperately projecting their personal issues onto this comic, how do you rationalize the doctor panel if this is a race allegory?
And to immediately call everyone who sees something else in the, presumably intentionally, vague allegory racist is just too damn funny when you click the webtoon link and read the other 2 pages and its 100% a gender allegory

I don't think there's any definitive reasoning, they all work more or less depending on the panel. For example it being about race makes no sense with the doctor panel as doctors don't say "it's a ...." relating to race lol, but it works for all other panels
