"I think some mistakes are meant to be made, because we can't help but hope that they won't be mistakes."

How about writing a story where the main character is gender neutral. Give absolutely no reference to gender at all. Just let us put a gender to the person. And then have the person enter a romantic and same-gendered relationship. Then, last part, just do, "I am a x"
x=boy/girl

So like say main character=a. Then romantic counterpart=b.
If b=boy, then have a=boy, then most people, at least heterosexual, will assume the gender of a=girl.

Why not a main character in a wheelchair? No need to make it hard. Write what you know... doesn't have to be your story, just use knowledge you have to bring life to a different story.
