An easy explanation on why Yamato is a man.
Let's start with this. Most people say that in Vivre Card it says that Yamato is a female as you can see on the picture. Certainly Yamato is a female.
Unfortunately for YOU, who a female is not a gender identity. It is sex. Let's explain first the difference between sex and gender. Sex is an assigned female or male at birth, this means having female or male reproductive organs. Female is an uterus and male is a penis. While gender indentity is how you FEEL about yourself. As a female you can identify as a man, masc or anything you want to. Anything how you feel like.
But then let's say that's not how it works. Vivre Card is still nor made by the author of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda.
And as we can remember many Vivre Cards were wrong a lot of times. Let's even take Yamato's Vivre Card. He has Observation, Armament and Conqueror's Haki, right? Well in Vivre Card it says he has only the first two. So it's not a good argument to use against Yamato being a man.
"But Yamato just calls herself Oden"
Yes, he does. But didn't you know what was One Piece about? It was about freedom and being themselves. Yamato quits calling himself Oden at the end of Wano arc, yet still everybody call him a man. If Yamato was only acting there would be a wholesome scene with Luffy and Yamato, probably Yamato crying, calling himself a woman and saying "I'M YAMATO, NOT ODEN!"
But it did not happen. Yamato still calls himself a man. Luffy calls him "Yama-o", which basically means "Yama-bro". (Also this is super cute, cause "yama" means a "mountain" in Japanese and considering Yamato is like two times taller than Luffy it makes sense and makes it cute ❤️)
"But she still has boobs"
Mind you that not all transgender people have to feel gender dysphoria. Also how was he supposed to get a top surgery? He was locked for 20 years in a country without such surgeries and it was war, then right after war he was injured, it's not a surgery to make, when someone is injured, definitely not. It's a shock to the person they're flat and it's kinda long process and all the testosterone. I doubt there is something like testosterone for transgender people in One Piece, but if there is... still HOW in a country like this being locked for 20 years?
Anyways. I have so much more reasons, why you are transphobic if you call Yamato a girl.
But I'll stick to few more
Here Yamato said "Kozuki Oden was a man, right? So I became a man too!!". Many transgenders (idk can I call us transgenders?It sounds cool, like superheroes) understood their identity, just because they liked someone and wanted to be like them.
Transgender identity is an aumbrella. Imagine it like this: There's a really big umbrella, there's said it's a transgender umbrella. Under the umbrella there are many other smaller umbrellas. One of non-binaries, one of trans masc/fems, one of trans men/women etc. Because transgender is every identity that is not identifying and using pronouns to your assigned at birth gender. Which Yamato does not. Yamato might be a female and even a girl. But if he uses he/him pronouns (which he does) is still under the transgender umbrella. Which makes it transphobic if someone doesn't use his preffered pronouns.
Yes, you are transphobic, be proud of yourself 😘
But if you knew this one... Then what are you doing reading/watching One Piece? You clearly didn't understand the point of it and that loved by everyone Bon Clay is also queer (LGBTQ+ term used for someone who is LGBTQ+)
Bon Clay doesn't have a partner in Baroque Works, because they identify as both woman and man (this is to make you understand better, because they identifies as genderqueer which has no real explanation, it's an identity that you feel yourself and people can't tell you how you feel).
Ivankow is genderfluid, which is an identity, where your gender varies from moment to moment.
Even Kaido calls Yamato his son.
Baroque Works says queer rights ✅️
Revolutionary says queer rights ✅️
Kaido says trans rights ✅️
Also if you read/watch One Piece and think that you are on Luffy's side, while you are racist/trasphobic/homophobic/judging/etc.
Then you are not on Luffy's side. In fact you are exactly like the World Government and should read/watch One Piece with your eyes open. This is about freedom, happiness, equal rights and All the good things. One Piece is not about the imaginary world. It's the same as our world. There exist hate, which is the World Government. Luffy is freedom and happiness. Revolutionaries are equal rights and freedom.
Never call yourselves One Piece fans again pls.
If my English was in any way no good, go ahead and tell me, it's not my first laungage
(ALSO I LOVE BEING RIGHT AND TELLING DUMB PPL THAT WILL DEFINITELY DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT THEY ARE WRONG HAHA!)
I'm literally Yamato irl.
THAT'S ALL FOLKS! ❤️
I love Yamato! He's my favorite LGBTQ character from anime. I am glad that in One piece nie are 2 trans characters ( Yamato Born as girl but call himself a men and Kiku ( Sister of Izou) She Has Born on men's body but ,, Has a womens heart'')
I was half asleep making this last night but someone in the kkir server said this was them 😭😭
Second poster done. Yamato is easily one my favorite characters.
Wip Yamato for my buddy’s birthday!
Omg a text post
Went to write a story, been a looooong time since I was ready to go throw it down with the keys and here I am.
So it's about Naruto, the series not the character. 7 pages in and I have not introduced the main character... Which I don't even know if he is going to be the main character. Is the center of the story automatically a main character?
Gai and Yamato are there goofing around. Tsunade the usual pretending to not give a shit badass, who actually gives a lot of shits. To herself and everyone around her.
Why am I even writing this down?
7 pages 2 chapters in and I have no idea where the story is going...
And I enjoy it so hard.
would you ever be open to someone getting a piece of your art tattooed? i just fell in love with your juubito/obito cutout art!
woah woah..I have nothing against it..on the contrary, I am very pleased!! Only..if you do, be sure to make a photo report, I'm very interested!
drawing Obito (more kakashi at this point…but Obito's clothes took 80% more time, so!!! and I also want to do the same art from his side later) until my hand falls off, day 10!!!! big numbers
more sketchy, Because I'm getting ready for tomorrow's class😴
and..just so you know…full art takes from 3 to 4 days(I have the opportunity to draw only from noon) , so in between I draw small pieces to post from time to time and continue the challenge :^)
and I'm sorry, I like to draw this bloody ahh mess whenever there is an opportunity
would you believe me if I said that I wanted to draw something more cute
A funny fact. at first, I treated Kakashi as a deliberately unloved character, because I have a strange opinion that a popular character does not suit me, or I just get bored of hearing about him in every corner of the fandom! but as I started watching, my heart completely melted. How can you not love him? the way he treats everyone, his team, his teammates, even despite what he's been through. His smile is heartbreaking, especially when it follows a tragic event.He deserves ALL the love he gets. I denied it for a long time, but he is my second favorite character. After Obito!! of course.
+ you can consider this a spoiler but…
I was looking for references and caught a seizure.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE HELLO?? i am dead
ty for almost 130 followers <3
A set of my different sketches. I really like to redraw official art, especially if I find something interesting
Picture with Yamato is a piece of my future work (¬‿¬ )
yammy!!! still kinda figuring out how i wanna mess with his design :]c
buncha doodles i've accumulated
Yamato/Tenzo my underrated king they will always make me love you☹️☹️☹️💔💔💔
Masks of Wano
Wano was really a fascinating look at the Masks one wears, and the burden of false names.
also something-something about gender and expectations. Not sure how to explain it, but you get it, yea?

Yama-guy !!!
One piece wiki finally using he/him pronouns for Yamato :0
just thinking about how well Yamato would fit into the Strawhats…
Talking with Robin about books, working out and being a muscle headed himbo with Zoro, being over all goofy and playful with Luffy, listening to Usopp’s stories and lies, playing with and doting on Chopper, Fanboying and being overall hyped about any new Franky inventions, joking with Nami and telling her any cool navigation things from Oden’s journal, laughing (way too loudly) at Brook’s jokes and singing along with him, joking with and bugging Sanji with Luffy and bonding over their shitty dad’s locking them in exploding cuffs and being an annoying yet endearing little brother-like figure to Jinbe and asking to hear his stories..
he’s perfect
if Yamato has a million fans, im one of them. if he has one fan, it’s me. if he has no fans, im dead
It’s hilarious to see transphobes clinging to the databook and oda box as if that means anything. That’s like saying “But the birth certificate says female at birth” So? Yamato’s preferred pronouns are male, He wants to be treated as a male, he goes into the male bath because it’s where he is most comfortable. That’s what it means to be trans. If fucking Kaido his abusive father can respect his pronouns you dudebros can too. Just admit it you don’t want Yamato to be a guy because that means you’ve been simping over a dude and that makes you…GASP gay!!!
somebody needs to sit down with transphobic One Piece fans and explain to them that if someone says they’re a man, they’re a man
This week’s chapter has gotta be for pride month cuz I think Oda created my ultimate trans heaven
On that note, I do not want to hear a single person say Yamato is not a man again. If I hear anyone say anything along those lines, I will shove Yamato’s kanabo up so far up their ass, they’ll be able to taste the transness
if Yamato ends up joining the crew (still so fucking excited about that lmao i legit almost cried while reading) and Sanji and Brook keep fawning over him then i’m gonna start telling people they’re both confirmed bisexual because of it. you can say what you like about it and idrc but i just think it’ll make dudebro’s super upset and honestly i’ll say and do almost anything to see them get overly pissy
many doggo yams
