Tangentially, is "bastard" gendered? It feels like it's always applied to men, so it seems gendered. And yet, the original meaning of the word "bastard"--someone born out of wedlock--doesn't imply any kind of gender.

So it struck me as weird that this person would call themselves a bastard. nbd, just thought it was odd

Bastard is not gendered in any way.
