Marvel
has
been
sharing
new
teasers
and
posters
for
the
upcoming
Disney+
Hotstar
series
Loki.
While
fans
have
been
waiting
for
the
release,
Twitterverse
couldn't
keep
calm
over
a
cheeky
reveal
in
the
latest
teaser.
The
new
18-odd
second
teaser
gives
a
glimpse
of
Loki's
Time
Variance
Authority
file
which
reads:
Sex
-
fluid.
Marvel's
Loki,
played
by
Tom
Hiddleston
has
joined
the
short
list
of
MCU's
diverse
characters.
The
big
reveal
comes
in
Pride
Month,
leaving
Twitter
abuzz.
While
there
have
always
been
theories
of
the
character's
celestial
capability
of
shape-shifting,
which
hints
at
gender-fluidity,
the
makers
have
finally
outed
the
God
of
Mischief
as
gender-fluid.
Meanwhile,
in
the
comic
books,
Loki's
non-binary
identity
was
confirmed
in
the
2014
release
Original
Sin:
Thor
&
Loki:
The
Tenth
Realm,
where
Oden
introduced
Loki
as
both
his
son
and
daughter.
Marvel
until
recently,
has
refrained
from
making
such
confirmations
in
its
movies,
however,
fans
were
happy
to
see
the
studio
take
a
giant
leap
forward.
One
Twitter
user
said,
"MARVEL
FINALLY
MADE
LOKI'S
BEING
GENDERFLUID
AN
MCU
CANON
OH
MY
GOD
#LOKI",
while
another
wrote,
"anyways
now
that
mcu
loki
is
confirmed
genderfluid
they
also
doesnt
owe
us
androgyny,
nor
a
feminine
look,
loki
is
genderfluid,
loki
is
a
he/she/they
no
matter
how
she
presents
as."
Fans
also
dug
out
an
old
interview
of
Tom
talking
about
Loki's
identity
and
can
be
heard
as
saying,
"He
is
not
even
gendered
really,
he
can
be
a
man
or
a
woman."
anyways
now
that
mcu
loki
is
confirmed
genderfluid
they
also
doesnt
owe
us
androgyny,
nor
a
feminine
look,
loki
is
genderfluid,
loki
is
a
he/she/they
no
matter
how
she
presents
as
o
k
a
y
so
uh
that
thing
that
was
posted?
It
said
sex,
not
gender.
If
it
said
gender:
fluid
then
that
would
have
been
confirming
that
Loki
is
genderfluid.
That
said
sex:
fluid
which
simply
means
Loki
can
shapeshift.
sex
≠
gender.
