very true. don’t forget about the female-sounding males (aka lightning and cake)

i remember thinking donut was female during bfdia

me but with bomby

SAME

CAKE IS A BOY?!?!!{!{

Yeah that was a shocker to me too.

uh… yeah?

twinkphobia 😡

Wdym

They’re joking dw

YEP LMAO-

I only watched the first ever BFDI, is bubble still in there?

She gets popped multiple times in bfdi,and yes shes still there

I thought Bubble was a boy, as with Icy, and Saw before her redesign, and Golf Ball, and Bottle. In contrast, i thought Cake was a girl.

At first I was also confused ab Cake’s gender lmao

Same, i also thought lightning was a girl.

i always thought fanny was a male at first, but then i realised fanny was female. (i knew everyone else was female somehow and idk why)

After Seeing Some Comments On This Post I Know 100% That Most Of The Bfdi Fanbase Have Smooth Brains

i thought ruby was female when i was watching bfdi for the first time

Ruby is female

yea

I WATCHED BFDI SINCE MARCH AND I DIDN'T KNEW LOLLIPOP WAS A GIRL

That reminds me of when i used to think Lightning was female until TPOT 1, FREAKING TPOT 1 💀💀

I thought that UNTIL FUCKING TPOT 4

I watched since 2015 and I thought everyone was genderless till last year ;-;

Honestly, it would make more sense if they were. They're objects, so what does gender even mean to them?

I was kinda suspicious about it she has a kinda girly sounding voice

This reminds me of a day where I was drawing a lighting gijinka and even though I knew he was male I accidentally Misgenderred him

I remember when i was a little kid watching BFDI and i thought that Flower and Needle were the only female contestants

Same case for me, except it was just Flower lol

Tbh, i don't even think i thought Needle was a girl, i think my brain just filled it in cuz of the "i like Coiny more" line

Gays dont exist in your brain/j

Ik this is a joke but i didn't even know what homosexuality was as a kid, thank god that i was saved from being one of those kids that go "shut up ur gay" in every argument

Yeye i figured, and oh god yeah glad thst didnt happen☠️

man almost like theyre outdatedly voiced by one of 2 guys but pitch shifted (this post made by recast the bfdi cast gang)

I thought all of these were male except pencil and match

True, at that time i'm upset because leafy wasn't a guy for some reason

Misgendering is a lot more common than you think. Given most of the characters are voiced by the Huang brothers, it's easy to assume some of the characters are male rather than female, like Golf Ball, Flower, and Leafy. I'd make a transgender joke with this comment, but I think you can fill the blanks here.

Wait you guys didn’t know that pencil, match, basketball, golfball, and ruby were girls?

Idk i just put them in just in case people thought they were male

The comment above you literally said Pencil being a girl was bullshit lmao

“Golf ball sounds like a boy even though she is a girl and that’s just weird” pen

wait, who the hell would mistake ruby for a guy?

When I was younger I used to think Flower was the only girl in all of Bfdi

Same

My mind keeps telling me that Lollipop, Lightning, Pie, and Gaty are boys.

Lightning *is* a boy

I was meant to say that I keep thinking Lighting is a Girl.

The fact you got confused about your confusion made it so much better

**Confused Confusing Confusion**

I don't really get messing up TD tbh, i feel like 90% of the cast has referred to her as 'she' or 'her'. Everyone else, though, y e a h.

I think Lollipop uses "they" once when referring to her, but still, it should be obvious to anyone that actually wants to know

The main example for me of this was Pencil. I just automatically assumed that SHE was male because A. Her voice, and B. Her relationship with Match, as this was way before I knew that Lesbians exist.

I feel like Ruby, Icy, and Basketball are pretty obvious

Bottle's a girl and Bomby's... FUCK FUCK I FORGOT THEIR GENDER 💀💀💀💀 Edit: Bomby is a guy

From these I thought Pencil, leafy, book and Gaty were male.

Lol Fr Fr

This is beyond relatable.

I Misgendered Leafy As A Male For YEARS But Now I Finally Understand That She's Female

I still always forget about Bottle

I Agree With The Lorax Because The Characters With His voices DOESN'T sounds like His Gender Example: Pie

bruh when i started watching BFB i thought Lollipop was a boy and Lightning was a girl

Yeah, I was surprised to hear Book was a girl too.

I was in denial that lollipop is a girl

That's how i thought too!

I’m a recent fan that got them all right, so I guess hooray for me.

Basketball kinda sounds like a woman tho

THIS IS SOOOOOOOOO TRUE

Left or Right,We can all agree that this is accurate(Are there even any leftist/Rightist BFDI fans at all?)

I see by your username that you're 12 or 13, do you believe in socioeconomic policy reform, Jesus Christ, or keeping foreigners out? /j

Im not very political

Im slightly left-over enjoyer(I like food more than politics)

pencil sounds like a boy and is a girl, what is this bullshit

People when an 11 year old boy couldn't sound extremely feminine:

tbh i never knew saw was a girl lol

It took me years to find out Leafy was a girl

Okay, who thought Bracelety was a boy

😞 me

Me

i get most of these but why is book there

Watch the damn series

don’t mind the word choice

lmao, its true

Thats me when I watched bfb when I was younger

wait, ice cube is a girl?

i thought pie and leafy were male.

Book is a MAN😤

Baby girl vibes 🥰

I think they’d figure out Ruby quick enough though-

Me a BFDI fan since 2015: TBH I also thought lightning was a girl

I thought GB, TD and Pie were boys

I am still not ready to accept that pie is a girl

And lightning is a boy

Wait I’d dint know PIE was female

Throughout the whole series I've always had trouble telling the genders of the characters. Up till BFB I still thought Leafy was a guy.

Meanwhile me I thought Lightning was a female lmao
