Okay, I am really fed up with usual story-plots which contain stereotype characters, although they seem to frame a much more realistic side of life.On the other hand, there's myself.As a writer, I might choose the ''unusual incidents plus people'' to fit in my own novels but-still- I wish to be as realistic as possible.
So, I have recently created a character to whom I want to give neutrality as regards to his/her gender.In other words:I am tending to create a mysterious character, with neutral personality-appearance, to whom I will be reffering to as ''it'' (for example it said that...it did that...etc), in order to let the readers decide whether he's a boy or she's a girl.Its gender remains unknown both for the other characters in my novel and the readers themselves.
My only problem is if such action will cause damage to the readers' attention or-even- provokes their anger as long as smth like this seems to be unusual.I just think it's a great idea to do so, but still, many people will say that an actual person ''has gender'' and that my character is fake.
Well, just for your information, this character has gender.It's just me, I want to make my novel unexpecting but original.
