Category talk:Transgender Characters

Yamato
why put yamato among the transgender characters when she may be acting like this only because she wants to impersonate oden but she could feel like a woman. ie at the very least I would leave the question open until a definitive explanation is given by the author. so you go to give information which, however, is not said to be correct. in addition I would put ivacov instead who is a confirmed transgender character.

You already know where to read up on the Yamato desicion. Ivankov is included already through the Newkama category, which is a subcategory of this one. Dragonus Nesha (talk) 21:30, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

I do not want to open up a can of worms, but most of those characters aren't transgenders. Okamas are crossdressers and Yamato is a whole story. Would that be a major issue to call this category Queer or Genderqueer characters? Rhavkin (talk) 07:57, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

I'm not against using "queer" to define all these characters, since it's an umbrella term and rolls off the tongue better than "gender non-conforming characters". My only concern is that "queer" can be seen or used as a slur, although it is used non-derogatorily in the FUNimation dub. But I dunno if that's an issue here, since it wouldn't be used in a derogatory way anyways. Somebody probably knows about that stuff better than me. 21:40, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

But to which of the okama articles do you think the transgender term doesn't apply? Dragonus Nesha (talk) 22:37, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Okamas in general are seen to be as crossdressers, or drag queens, I believe. Correct me if I'm wrong. 23:20, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
