After all, Alluka clearly looks and acts like a girl and may very well be a female in nature and psyche, but that doesn't change the fact that biologically Alluka would still be male, plus like Martial said Killua called Alluka his little brother on the phone to Morel. Now if you look at other people in the Zoldyck estate that aren't as understanding as Killua(and by understanding I literally mean understand Alluka's female psyche), they would obviously go for the more logical way of referring to Alluka using "he", because that's his actual gender if you don't take his emotions into account. But, for now let's say that they are massive dicks and would refer to Alluka as male even if he was a girl. Even so, before they even knew about Nanika and the way it kills(the reason they resent him), they still referred to Alluka as male, pretty much disproving that the Zoldyck call alluka a boy just to be dicks. And I mean there's the tiny detail of her gender being confirmed to be male in the OFFICIAL DATA BOOK!! But you know, who listens to official sources and confirmations these days when you can just use wild speculation and force your opinion on others without logic or sense! Am I right? I'm sorry if i wasnt totally clear, but I did state the fact that what I said was my opinion. My statement was in no way true.

Now I do believe that Alluka was born with male reproductive organs, technically (I guess) making her a male. But, some people born into male bodies feel uncomfortable or like they don't belong, so they decide to come out as transgender, and go by different pronouns such as a male going from he/him to she/her or they/them. This is what I believe is Alluka's situation (or something close to it). Some reasons she may feel more comfortable in a male's body are because she has been stuck in that room for a very long portion of her life, causing her body to become frail. This couuld be a trigger into maing her feel more comfortable dressing for her body type and being called a female. Another reason could be Nankia. Who knows, maybe Nanika's gender is female, anId that affects Alluka some ways, causing her transer. Or yes, she could just have a female mindset or psyche.

The reason I specifically brough up Killua refering to Alluka as a girl is becaus he has been the one to spend the most time with her, so he is the one who would probably be the most accepting of any of her choices. Him calling her a female could be out of respect for her decisions, or just him being a good big brother. Some reasons her could have called her a him on the phone with Morel could be that some people are less accepting of these types of things, or that she is indeed a male, and he wants to make that clear.

The Zoldyks obviously hold hate towards Alluka, saying she is a monster. They may not have taken the time to really get to know her enough to know how she feels. They call her either 'he' or 'it'. The 'it' is abviously meant as negative, but the 'he' could be them not knowing any better (Alluka coming out). Some of the Zoldyk butlers though, are fine with this. Canary accompanied Killua, Gotoh, Alluka, and Tsubone for the sole reason of having another female accompany Alluka. Both canary and Tsubone refer to Alluka as she as well.

Now one more time, I do belive Alluka was born as male, and still does have a male body. she just isnt comfortable with it and chose female. I'm not trying to force my opinion onto others, i'm just trying to back it up with details from the anime/manga.

NOW JUST TO MAKE THIS CLEAR ONE MORE TIME. THIS IS MY OPINION. THERE IS NOTHING OFFICIALLY STATING ALLUKA IS TRANS, ITS JUST ME HOPING FOR TRANS CHARACTERS IN MANGA THAT ARENT JUST FOR KINKS OR PLEASURE. NOT SAYING THERE ARENT ANY, JUST NOT ENOUGH.

(and another thing is I didnt notice the 'gender abiguity' section of this article, wich is the main reason I posted that comment which is my mistake but now that I'm here I should just go all out)
