ONE PIECE SPOILERS
I am not trans so I can’t and won’t speak in their behalf, this is me just complaining about the stuff I am seeing around about Yamato.
I really don’t understand what’s so difficult about using Yamato’s pronouns. He calls himself Kaido’s son, he used boku to talk about himself, Luffy calls him Yama-o - that literally meas Yama guy. I think that’s enough to conclud that he *is* and *wants* to be perceived as a man.
But I saw some people arguing that he wants to be *Oden* not a *boy* and his character development is going to be him stopping wanting to be Oden, so stop being a man.
And let’s pretend for a moment that that’s going to happen, so what? At the moment he sees himself as a man, we should all respect that and use the correct pronouns. It’s really not that difficult.
If indeed he decides that he is not a man at the end of the arc, than we should stop using he/him. Until then, it’s really that hard to call a fictional character by the right pronouns? I don’t think it is.
So let’s stop saying ridiculous theories just to try to hide our bigotry. Thanks and sorry for the kinda long post.
