* Roger from ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' is treated by the family as male, but he'll dress as and sleep with AnythingThatMoves. In later episodes Francine is shown to treat him as female when in female personas. He mentioned in "The One That Got Away" and "Jenny Fromdablock" that he doesn't have genitals and in one episode [[spoiler:after having sex with Klaus]] he asked if it made them gay and Roger replied that it didn't because he's an alien.

* ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'': According to Creator/JhonenVasquez, while Zim and other Irken may present as male or female when disguised as human, outside of that they don't abide by a gender binary, [[https://twitter.com/JhonenV/status/1325571053238640640?s=19 stating on Twitter]] that "the only IRKEN gender is [=A55H0LE=]. all caps."



* The alien protagonists of ''WesternAnimation/SolarOpposites'' are from a race with NoBiologicalSex who instead of having kids have "replicants". Similar to the ''Series/ThirdRockFromTheSun'' example above, when they came to earth they assigned themselves genders so as to sell the idea of them being a family. Jessie chose to be female, while Terry, Korvo and Yumulak are male, making Korvo and Terry [[DiscountLesbians come off as a gay couple]] even though they're not an actual couple and [[AnythingThatMoves are pretty all over the place sexually.]]
