Being trans as a result of trauma is a thing you know. :\

It's not the most common, but trans is trans. And I'm sorry, but what makes you say he actually identifies as female? So far, every instance of him seemingly embracing it is during psychotic breakdowns, and it looks more like a reaction formation to me.

The very beginning, Mutsuki describes classic dysphoria: "For reasons I never understood, I was never comfortable living as a woman. I would like to live as a man."

And there were quotes around "girl" when Mutsuki said "I am a 'girl'" to Saiko in the original text that Mangastream neglected to include. Pretty sure he exclusively meant his assigned gender, especially since that's how quite a few trans people indicate it.

Look, even if you don't believe it, using the pronouns he wants to be referred to as while he's mentally sound, which is masculine. Refer to him with masculine pronouns until canon explicitly indicates otherwise like with Karren.
