Yeah, that’s definitely the appropriate maturity level. Congratulations on getting a whole one thing right so far this month!
who the hell would think crowler was female, that’s like saying yzma isn’t ugly
Are you saying crona was “obviously male”? If so you couldn’t be more wrong, because technically, crona has been confirmed by okubo to be not gendered, he essentially never decided on one
Just making a joke
But to me professor Crowler looked like a woman and I think I thought he was
Professor Crowler from yu-gi-oh gx was clearly a dude also Crona from soul eater
Any side boy/girl character in Pokémon
Professor Crowler from yu-gi-oh gx
Kurapika from hunter x hunter
Pretty much the dude looks like a lady thing we see in some cartoons and most anime
I agree.
Honestly, Princess… I really enjoy the idea of a colt so cute he could be a filly. It makes him an interesting character, instead of just Pinkie Pie v2.0 now with cream cheese filling.

In keeping with the facts and such, do note the script uses male pronouns almost immediately on his introduction:
This action line however is not in the final product (instead he makes funny noises with Boneless 6; it appears storyboarders had great freedom in FiM’s production). There is also an argument to be had on whether using male pronouns counts, given a tendency in many writing styles to use them for unknown sex.
Also, on reflection, I’ve realized that as far as I’m aware, this is the only line in the script indicating his sex, and also the only line in all of FiM’s scripts with the word ‘fart’…everyone is effectively arguing over whether the only ‘fart’ line in the entire series’ script is definitive canon over the customary implications of its onscreen result.
I recommend taking this as symbolic, in that we shouldn’t take the matter so seriously.

this is mangle from FNAF all over again
The character was animated as female
That’s never been a universal standard, though, especially with fillies and colts. That’s one of the main reasons all of this artificial folderol over a one-scene character with no lines is getting so much pushback; the whole “looks like a filly, MUST be a filly” thing that the yellers are insisting on has never actually been true.

actually the writer said that gender was neutral but used to male words anyway Jim Miller the storyboard director is the one saying it’s male
The script showed that the character is gender neutral.
The writer says the character is male.
These are the facts, this is the division, here you go.
A director’s only capacity is to follow a script as best as possible
If you’d watched the Making Of special that aired alongside the Series Finale, you would have seen Big Jim in the recording booth making changes to the script in real time. I don’t know where you’re getting the idea that directors are somehow slaves to the whims of writers and scripts, but pretty much the entire film and television industry is built around exactly the opposite, especially with multiple author franchise productions like FIM; it’s not difficult at all to find stories online of writers for TV series bitching about having their scripts hacked up, and it baffles me that you would even make such a claim when M.A. Larson is standing right over there telling anyone who asks that he wrote a completely different Magical Mystery Cure than the one which aired.
You probably don’t realize this, but you’re self-declaring the hierarchy of authority and cherry-picking your source. A director’s only capacity is to follow a script as best as possible. Fyi, directors are not at the top of the food chain. Directors don’t read the script and then do whatever they want; you’re mistaking the producer for the director.
Directors generally do not have power to make drastic or absolute changes to a finalized script; they answer to the producer who makes the final decisions and accepts / rejects scripts. Then the producer hands their approved version and notes of the script to the director who is then ordered to follow it as closely as possible to the best of ability within the time limit and resources available. Even so, if he wanted it clear that Li’l Cheese were a boy, they obviously would’ve taken off the eyelashes, but that wasn’t a concern. That automatically means he left it open to interpretation to the character design art team.
Besides that, the information I’ve gathered, Big Jim never stepped in and authoritatively declared that he’s a boy. Jim was making a reference to the script and stated he had made an assumption. So he essentially pointed back at the script and the writing team verified that the ‘he’ pronoun was used as a placeholder but was not explicitly meant to be boy or girl.
But ultimately, writers are a “tier” above the director; they create the inherent and intended content that everyone else falls in line with to follow. The producer has the ability to ask for changes and in a sense has more authority, but producers don’t write the content, just dictate what the goals are and assesses if the script falls in line with those goals.
The director’s only job is to follow what’s on the script as much as there. He didn’t communicate to the visual character design art team any necessity for Li’l Cheese to be a boy, they either knew it was up for interpretation, or were told “do what you want from the script” and got info from the script department that gender wasn’t important. So they shrugged and made Li’l Cheese likened to a girl. Big Jim probably noticed and just allowed it.
