I was the only one who thought this of Erica Ortega was non-binary or trans? (thelemmy.club)

When I started watching the series, I had this doubt. As the three seasons went by, I came to the conclusion that she was simply a woman.

There was a character in the Fallout series, Dane, and I completely missed the fact that they were non-binary. I thought they were more of a tomboy character, but no—the character is non-binary, and the actor is a trans man, if I'm not mistaken.

I want to know if I was the only one who thought Erica might be the same case.

It's weird to say because I usually try not to make assumptions about people, but sometimes I feel rude for not noticing these things sooner.

That link seems broken for me, it says "bad title"

Weird just search José Tyler that's the character she is based on

I think this is the correct link, for José Tyler: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Tyler
