Do changelings have sexes?

Changelings generally have a fluid relationship with gender, often seen as genderless in their natural forms, but capable of adopting any sex or gender identity (male, female, nonbinary) as part of their shape-shifting, making gender a tool or personal choice rather than a fixed biological trait.
