I'm having a bit of trouble getting my point across in this reply as I am a cis man hater, a yuri lover, and an anticensorship believer + I am not transfem so I don't want to overstep and say something disrespectful considering this has now been turned into a discussion that concerns trans women and my opinion is far less important in that. Because of that, all I'm going to say on this topic is that-- I also get her point and I think my tweet WAS reductive in the way that I didn't think too deeply into what I was saying (I wasn't trying to engage in discourse, honest 😭 I saw the og tweet and absentmindedly commented on it without looking at any other discussion about it and that was that) and it came across as ignorant because of that. However, I think all stories of all experiences have merit and should be allowed to exist as long as they're handled correctly-- and for the record I have not read the manga, I only know of it and the concept so I don't know how the manga portrays the lolita boy (ALSO I don't consider the manga to be a queer story despite them being gnc because it is still a cishet relationship, I just need to make that clear.) And saying as a yuri reader, it's just true that ultra fem girl x masculine girl has been done countless times before (for example, I rarely see butch4butch yuri though I will take recs if anyone has any) and I don't think that that's enforcing gender norms obviously considering I'm a femme lesbian with a love of butches and butchfemme relationships are definitely not "gender conforming..." but I've never seen a het manga with the premise of both characters being gnc and I think that's nice and I like the idea of a boy in lolita.
