This is really kind of funny.

We have a very famous saying in Italian, dunno if there's something like
that in any other language. When someone is debsting about something that
trivial and meant to be unknow that the debating itself is even beyoint the
point of total uselessness, we say "he's debating about the sex of angels",
referring to the idea that in the bible anger have no sex, meaning their no
male nor female.

LoL, Kaworu, Angels, debating about Kaworu sex, 1+1=2.

:-)
