No, we're supposed to be confused early on. Mutsuki's appearance is fairly androgynous, but he uses the most masculine personal pronoun ("Ore", which generally gets used in anime to convey a tough guy or a manly man as opposed to the more mild "boku"). So no one had a clue until the Torso incident, and now it's a matter of whether one believes Mutsuki is intended to be a transgender character or simply pretending to be a dude.

Officially, the wiki goes "IDK look over there!" and runs into the night. But the Japanese material uses masculine (or gender neutral) language, with the exception of Torso being unsettling.
