Where the guy says “no man can kill me” and she takes off her helmet and says “I am no man” and he implodes out of respect to her pronouns. Always loved that scene.

    I’ve always imagined a skit where a player character argues over the rules with the DM on how that should be ruled.

    PC: “okay, he says he can’t be killed by a man, but my character isn’t a man!”

    DM: “In the setting and history, the ‘race of men’ refers to both men and women! It is a distinction of being mortal, not a particular gender!”

    PC: “oh, so he can be killed by an elf man!?”

    DM: “No! An elf man is still a man!”

    And shenanigans like that

      The book and to a lesser extent film does this sorta. Merry stabs the Witch King with his elven dagger which is magic and makes the Witch King vulnerable. So it’s an assisted kill with a woman from the race of Men and a male from the race of Hobbits (who are technically Men, but good enough)
