I really don't understand what's so hard for you people to understand here, about Tooru's gender. He said he hated being seen as female, and was more comfortable with being viewed as male. Everyone in the manga uses he/him pronouns for him and he uses the mens bathroom. He is a boy. Is it really that hard to grasp? Sex does not equal gender, and not everyone can afford to/has the means to get "~ The Surgery ~", nor do all trans people want it. Socially transitioning is different than physically transitioning, and you should respect how people identify and try to accomodate them either way, its really none of your business nitpicking about it.

I just don't see what's so hard for people to grasp about this concept. If a character said they always hated being called their name, and wanted to use a nickname- AND everyone referred to them with said nickname in the manga with little issue, I'm sure the fandom would take the hint and take to using their preferred name as well.

So why is it so hard to accept a trans person's identity, hm? Oh, right, you're all transphobes.
