I don't have to know anything, all I'm saying is that you dont have any proof. All Mutsuki said was that they were tired of "living" as a female. That can always pertain to anything, such as rape, after that, they probably became much more tomboyish, decided to crossdress and quite literally live as a man.

Plus, Torso seemed to be confused on Mutsuki's gender until he confirmed it for himself, and called Mutsuki a female. Meaning, there's probably a good chance Mutsuki is just crossdressing and still didn't get surgery. I was specifically talking about surgery, not what they identify as, it's confirmed Mutsuki see's themselves as male, you dont need any proof for that, I'm talking about their body. Plus plenty of women will also hide their feminine features, I'm not pulling this out of my ass, it's right there in the manga.

1.He is male on paper

2.He considers himself a male and lives life as a male.

3.Torso said he was female.

4.Still has somewhat feminine mannerisms

5.Is anemic and doesn't eat a lot of meat(Your diet and your body correlate, and a lot of women eat very differently from men.)

So while Mutsuki is "known" as a man in the story, there's no real confirmation they got surgery, the CCG should have the finances to easily give Mutsuki that option, but that doesnt mean they did it, they probably act like that to safeguard themselves because they see men as powerful figures. Mutsuki wants to be strong, so throwing away your feminine traits is one way of doing that. Plus, even if she does see herself as a man, does that mean she is interested in women now all of a sudden? Got any proof of that?

No? Oh, I see. So we probably have a character who went through some sort of traumatic experience that made their sexual identity make them feel uncomfortable.

We don't know what that event is, but if Mutsuki always felt like she didn't feel right "living as a woman" (even before the incident or whatever) then thats just who she is, and there won't be any more need to speculate her character. But if this "living as a man" nonsense happened after an incident, I think its just backlash from trauma.
