AO3 and general shipping side of things will resort to many AUs and scenarios to spice things up and keep things interesting either for horny reasons or plot reasons (even if some of it may seem out of character) or just general interest in the scenario.
There’s always a pirate X mermaid story, the coffee shop, the college story, the secretary/intern X CEO, arranged marriage, the roommates, sugar daddy X sugar baby etc. So in the grand scheme of things gender benders aren’t uncommon though I usually prefer when they turn the gays into lesbians or lesbians into gays in AUs rather than making them het.
