I've got a half baked idea where the MC wishes to be "in a harem anime" and gets genie wished into being one of the girls in someone else's anime harem. In the course of rejecting this placement he a) learns about sexism and b) firmly entrenches himself as the group's tsundere. Then a genderfluid plot emerges where they realize that their initial rejection of a woman's body was more the result of the culture they grew up in and not a reflection of how they really feel about it.
