Haha yeah, I'm pretty sure that Frisk, Chara, etc etc. are just UNKNOWN gender, not "neither male nor female" (there is a distinct difference, and it seems that a lot of people misunderstand that. A character with unknown gender CAN be male or female or nonbinary, but a canonically nonbinary character CANNOT be unknown gender... because their gender would be confirmed as nonbinary, and is therefore "not" "unknown").

Frisk and Chara are like that so that the player can better immerse themself in the game's world. If a player was a guy but Frisk was called a girl in the game, then that guy might not be able to fully put himself in Frisk's shoes.

Frisk and others are called "they" because "they" can refer to someone of unknown gender. In English, it's really hard to write without third-person pronouns without things sounding awkward. Unless Toby Fox actually says "Frisk is nonbinary" then Frisk is not canonically nonbinary :V

Personally, I see Frisk as a male lol.
