If anyone is curious (as I was):
In real life Nemo's dad would have become female after mommy got eaten.

Does trans fall into the term gay now? Honest question. I understood the former to be about gender and the latter to be about sexual orientation.

Not trying to answer the question, but the only party that suggests that in the original post is "the haters".

The aquarium staff hoist the trans flag, and explain that "some fish change gender". The people complaining bring up "gay", but don't seem very well informed about human or aquatic cultures.

Salmon change sex too if I recall correctly.

And mated with Nemo. Let's not forget that.

For non-experts it generally falls into the "gay stuff".
(if you can explain the difference between sex and gender you're an expert)

Nature is queer in every way imaginable. Diversity is the point.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]“Gay” as a blanket term inclusive of all alternative lifestyles and peoples. Like how saying “you guys” is inclusive of all genders.
…or using the term “Man” to refer to all of humankind.

No, but I like fish dicks.

How do fish change their gender? Are there really smart fishes having formed social constructs related to their sex?

I'm not an expert, but I imagine when they change sex, their behaviour changes accordingly.
They don't need to understand social constructs - they're changing gender as a result of changing sex.

Patterns of behavior typically tied to one sex or the other. Like doing mating dances or building nests.

I don't think salmon change sex to be honest. It seems from the stuff I could find that sex determination for salmon is mostly chromosomal but with divergence at certain temperature during development (or exogenous hormonal influence obviously).
The coolest paper I found while searching was this:
Natural sex change in fish - ScienceDirect - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0070215318301145

She's awesome. They also did some Pride crafts and while her two co-workers made those Polaroid picture frames with slogans she made a big angler fish hat. Because she thinks they are awesome (she's right).
