I'm not OP. Just so you know.

The writer makes a point of identifying the character as male so that she can 2 pages later, in the character's language which is the "genderless" language that she couldn't find a neutral pronoun for, tried to use "they" for and ended up using "she" for instead, identify as "she." So yes, he is misgendered. He is totally misgendered. You and I and everyone knows he is misgendered. The author made a clumsy *point* of misgendering him, just to further her story's agenda.

And that's why ick.

What.

How do we "know" Seivarden is misgendered? She's perfectly fine with the pronoun "she", which is what she uses in her own language. Outsiders who don't know any better label her "he" because she is biologically male. They're misgendering her.

Claiming that, because someone is biologically male, they must be "he" - and that "you and I and everyone knows" it - is honestly what's "ick", here.
