if you're considering it? if there's that brief glimmer of unthinkable hope? it really doesn't take the fall of a city for things to be possible. there's plenty of easy and immediate steps you can do to feel it all out; conveniently, for one, you're already on (the wiki for) a browser game where one can set one's gender entirely at will. from there onwards, sometimes there are hoops that may arise that you shall have to jump through, but that's tractable. and by god i swear, it is worth it. entirely worth it.
