You, my friend, are well-meaning but unfortunately unlearned on the subject.

"Transgender" is not a noun. It's an adjective. "Transgender people" or just "transpeople" (transman, transwoman, etc.) gets the idea across. "Transsexual" can be a noun, but it's a word that many transgender and otherwise non-cisgender people do not identity with or otherwise have issues with.

"Transvestite" is someone who likes to wear clothing meant for the opposite sex, for whatever reason. So if "fetish type outfits" are frilly maid skirts and whatnot, then yes, you could argue that he is a transvestite. (Though the word "transvestite" is fraught with its own issues.)

"Fetish type outfits" and "sexy gay outfits" are not necessarily the same thing. In fact, I think the only difference between "straight fetish outfits" and "gay fetish outfits" is the sex of the people wearing them while having sex.

"It's obvious that Ash is NOT transgender because he still has his manly features." WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. I know you don't mean it this way, but this is a method of erasing or denying trans people. Someone is trans if they identify as trans. A transwoman may have facial hair and pecs and a bass voice and a dick, she may like football and duck hunting and motorcycles and porn, but if she considers herself a woman, SHE IS A WOMAN. Period. She may not fall into traditional ideas of womanhood, but SHE IS A WOMAN. There are plenty of reasons a transwoman may still present as male, and that does NOT diminish or lessen her status as a woman. PERIOD.

I know absolutely nothing about the fandom in question, so I know absolutely nothing about the sexuality, gender presentation or gender identity of the character in question. What I do know is that your argument is confused and flawed, and I strongly recommend that you learn a bit more on the subject before trying to make another argument about it.
