In the real world, femininity and masculinity are the product of years of influence by the sex hormones (for example, the facial bone structure).
You're right, of course. Gender differentiation starts
in utero and kicks into high gear with the onset of puberty. In the real world any doctor would be able to distinguish a person's original gender from the facial structure, Adam's apple, shoulders, the long bones, and most especially the pelvis.
So you'd expect a "real" zerophiliac to generally be better looking as his/her original sex.
Perhaps we should assume that this condition transformed not only the outward appearance but the skeleton and musculature as well — sort of the way a human is supposed to be transformed in a werewolf movie. We saw how it affected body hair
a) when Luke noticed his chest hair had disappeared, and
b) when Michelle transformed into Max in the shower.
Did you notice: There was no one in that town or at that school who looked over 30? (Except Dr Sydney — who'd left her Savannah accent in Georgia.)
My biggest gripe: Whoever sang that opening song just could
not reach some of those notes. (Perhaps she broke into song because she couldn't find the key.)
