What is the gender of the protaganist of the game?

Its really confusing to me because you can date papyrus and it gives you the option to flirt with toriel

He's referring to Toriel as "lady". You remember the promise he made to her, right?

[thespooniest]

The protagonist is a magical, pan-♥♥♥♥♥♥, nonthreatening spokesthing. By this I mean both Frisk and Chara, just to avoid confusion in the face of differing theories. Come to think of it, maybe I'm misremembering something here, but isn't Asriel too?

I always got the sense that they (Frisk and Chara, that is; I've got no clue about Asriel) are intended to be the same gender as the player. Toby is on record as encouraging players to name the fallen human after themselves, probably to identify more closely with them. This would provide another tie along similar lines.

Toby stated (I can't really remember where 'cause I look up so much stuff about Undertale that my resources just get all jumbled) that the character is in fact genderless so that the player can apply what ever gender they want to it.

It's actually supposed to be gender-neutral, so both boys and girls can play.

This isn't the first time I've seen this confusion. People keep using that as 'evidence' that Frisk is female although it's actually reference to goat mom and all.

[Chara the Explorer]

It's gender-neutral. There's no distinquishing features. There's PROBABLY more fan creations where s/he's a girl, but even assuming that that's true it's hardly canonical.

As for the character relations (and this is even assuming that all characters are hetero unless explicately stated otherwise) Toriel thinks you're just being cute, Papyrus is so new to the whole "friends" thing I don't think he'd even notice anything wrong with going on a date with a person of a gender he's not attracted to, and Alphys is easily confirmed to be bisexual.

I thought this too at a glance, but as has been said it's more likely refering to Toriel, what with the fact that Sans made her a promise AND that... well, she's an old woman and the player is a child.

in the game somone said on the genoside run that he was a threat to all monsters and with the condfusing dated papyrus and the dated alphys and the flirting with goat mom WIZRD (the name of my human) didnt really ask to date any of the 2

[Kris the Whatever]

The gender is whatever you think it is.

[prickly muffin]

Frisk is gender neutral, and I have this theory that in the underground, they have a culture where you can like whoever you want, regardless of their gender, without being labeled something. Idk
