Hihi, he's just a gay man who likes men who likes feminine type things like teddy bears! Thats atleast what i clarify from this book. He wouldn't be trans since he is a man from birth to now!
That's not how being trans works fam. You don't magically become trans only after transitioning. Please do your research.
What?... i just said he wouldn't be trans since he still had his birth gender? Sorry if i said something that offended you i was just trying to clarify that he was a man who continued being a man haha
Oh wait sorry
lol fam.... you didn't 'offend' me, what you said simply made no sense.
I think gender and sex are both different. Sex is when you are born with male or female body parts. Gender is more on the mindset. So if a boy who has male body parts is a woman at heart, then she's a trans woman. Or if a girl who has female body parts is a man at heart, then he's a trans man. Then there are also genderfluid and genderless ones. Gender is more of a social construct, while sex is biology.
I can't tell whether the uke is a gay man or a straight trans woman that doesn't realise they are trans.... Like.... there is a difference between being a gay man that likes feminine things and a trans woman, but the translator treats these two concept like they are synonymous. I am not sure whether this is the same in the raw version, so I can't determine the thought process of the author. That being said, this lack of clarity shows that the translator and/or the author need to educate themselves so that they can write characters that actually make sense.
