Li’l Cheese is the Pyro confirmed.

@Background Pony #F285  
As you stated Li’l Cheese’s gender was left open for interpretation so everyone is entitled to their own ideas and interpretations but I’m just curious, how come you both agree that Li’l Cheese’s gender is up for interpretation yet also state that you’re against the mere prospect that Li’l Cheese could be a male?
Background Pony #2CD2
also the staff doesn’t care about pinkie’s child that’s why their gender is open to interpretation

@Background Pony #057C  
just because he was male in the original script doesn’t mean he has to be male in the final version  
and personally I really don’t like the idea that lil cheese could be male

Gameloft makes the game, not Hasbro. Blame them for the confusion. :P

“Filly” stands for Young female ponies.  
“Colt” stands for Young male ponies.
 
I’m confused, i thought Li’l cheese was a male. Hasbro, why do you have to make us so confused? Why? Just why?

Chimerism is very interesting. One case I heard was of a woman with her unborn twin’s uterus so that the woman wasn’t the biological mother of the child she birthed. I think I might be getting off topic…

Another form of intersex development is chimerical: fraternal twin embryos fuse together early on, and result in a person who has some cells, tissues, even organs that are male and some that are female.

Intersex is a possibility and yes I believe that is the correct term. If Li’l Cheese is intersex than maybe she would choose to present as a filly.
 
PS, horses can deviate from strict male/female one example of an apparent female that was actually a male

Li’l Cheese is genderfluid. Given his parents, even her gender is inconsistent and bends more to the rule of funny than the laws of physics. Pronouns used deliberately.

Literally only one writer said that they were male, they don’t speak for the entire show. Lil Cheese is whatever gender you want them to be, they’re just a placeholder child for those who wanted Pinkie to have a kid. They were never meant to be more than that.

Hopefully we can put an end to this debate now for good, but then again Gameloft could just be guessing based on his/her design rather than it being an official confirmation from Hasbro

Enter if you dare
The Gameloft game is still just a licensed game they don’t decide canon

Everyone has their own headcanons. I mean, Gameloft says Li’l Cheese is a female, but you can make her a male in AUs or something else.

I’m a wordy sunnuva-bitch, what can I say?

@Background Pony #F285
 
The final version doesn’t have dialogue saying the character is female either. You are just assuming Li’l Cheese is a female based on appearance. While the script says otherwise.
 
And there’s lots of kids that can be mistaken for the opposite gender. Both in real life and in fiction.
Background Pony #2CD2
@Background Pony #9704  
So what? I mean sure, but apparently it’s not their final decision. Again the final version shows that PP’s child is actually a filly pinkie recolor, so at this point who cares about the original idea..

OK people I have the answer: Little Cheese is Both Male and Female, but neither one.
No, not a hermaphrodite: Think of it like Schrodingers cat. They are male or female depending on who perceives them.
A Schrodingers gender if you will.
Honestly, given that this kids parents…are we REALLY surprised?
 
That’s a lot of words to describe intersex
