Long story short, these mutants have an idealized shape they associate with themselves, which can be just about anything -- includinganything—including the "wrong" gender. The majority of the stories revolve around a clique of students who had their [[Gender Bender|genders changed]] during their origin stories, and are part of Poe Cottage -- aCottage—a dorm designed to hide this fact (as well as other LGBI students) from the study body at large.
