The books I tend to re-read are Komarr and A Civil Campaign, mostly because the combination of them makes me happy, and I don't think it's possible to harsh my squee, but I see what you mean about the problematic trans* and feminist issues.
I would do what Donna did in the same situation, and I wouldn't even think twice about it. (I don't have a strong sense of gender, and I identify as genderqueer.) That's probably why I haven't reacted at the portrayal of Dono. I would love to hear more of her and By's backstory.
