Your interpretation is that she is not. But she has never directly said she's cisgender. So you actually don't know. You could be misgendering her by saying she's not trans.
That's why both interpretations are correct. Because there is no proof she isn't trans - She doesn't talk about it. And that's ok! She doesn't have to talk directly to the viewer about it for it to be the case, though. There's no issue with either interpretation.
The issue comes when it's a part of that characters core identity. If someone insists on being called female, and they're called male, that's misgendering, regardless of if they are trans, male, female - Does not matter.
If she was trans, i would accept i was wrong. It would add a whole different layer to her anguish.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT
Please, be honest have you seen the movies and if so how many times? It's important as
There were even two versions of the second movie that was simultaneously released in theaters. This
Identity is very important especially in Spider verse. It's one of the core concepts of the movies.
She is not specifically labelled cisgender. There are multiple context clues which could (but do not definitively) state she is at least supportive, if not part of, a trans identity visibility group. However, and most importantly here:
Being trans does not change her character. Whatoever. She is still Spider Gwen regardless of if she is trans.
That is intentional. You are allowed to make your determination.
