#im closer to androgynoid (or anthronoid) too.

The word 'android' is a male word. The female word is 'gynoid'.

As a sci-fi nerd, it has always bothered me a little that all robots are assigned male gender, even the booby ones.

They should all be androgynoids. I wish that was the word.

If I were a robot, I would prefer androgynoid as my pronoun.

I actually hadn't considered the etymology of the word android before, so thank you for making me consider it! (I love thinking about little language things. the origin of words and affixes and such)

It's unfortunate that the 'gender-neutral' nouns in the english language are often just the same as the neuter ones, or when the neuter words imply masculinity.

The gender neutral 'android' is probably something like (as you mentioned) androgynoid, or anthropoid/anthronoid ("-oid" of or like, "anthro" [a] human). One of those would probably be a better word for it.
