“Alchemised,” a novel by SenLinYu: Front Flap says protagonist has “inexplicable memory loss”; back flap indicates author is nonbinary; both suggestive of Multiple Personality Disorder (a.k.a. Dissociative Identity Disorder).
Memory gaps are a cardinal symptom of multiple personality (2), and many persons with multiple personality have both male and female alternate personalities (2).
