To be honest I've always kind of assumed them to be the same without any proof. I've reverted the link edits for now, since if they are the same they should be aliased together, but I think some more concrete evidence for that would help.

well……I think the evidence is sufficient. When she created the Xinzoruo account, she said it was a burner account for genshin.When people ask Xinzoruo if she has only one account, she always emphasizes that she has only one account with genshin, not just one account.

    You know,It's not very unusual for an Asian artist to have multiple accounts alone.They create different accounts to post different content.Above all, it is a well-known fact that lyy and xinzoruo are the same people in the Chinese community.

    Lyy said she was unlucky today, while Xinzoruo said she hurt her toe today.

    I don't know how to do it, can you combine these two tags?

    "inclined to think" might have been better wording, but from Merriam-Webster:

    inclined adjective

    in·​clined in-ˈklīnd, sense 2 also ˈin-ˌklīnd

    1: having inclination, disposition, or tendency
    2a: having a leaning or slope
    2b: making an angle with a line or plane

    The intended meaning (1) is apparently more common than the literal one you're making it out to be (2a).

    Yeah, Bridget has always been a boy disguised as a girl. That doesn't mean he's trans in the western sense. I'm dead sure the translation mistook "transexual" for whatever that word for effeminate/crossdressing boy is, but it's impossible to check by myself, and I don't have the energy to reason people thinking otherwise.

    To be fair, it's only a third of the transgender mark, which only means it's been stylized by leaving the difference between that and the intersex symbol. (Also, a horizontal flip of the gender-neutral symbol.) Fictional sources do tend to do their own thing occasionally. I've met a variety of definition purists who believe that symbols, when other meaning has not been established, should be completely depicted to indicate proper representation; otherwise, it's either an inversion of the original meaning, a corruption of it, or some other imperfection. The vibe is not dissimilar to depicting the cross upside down to casually refer to something unholy (ignoring that an upside down cross actually does mean something on its own) and not unlike substituting other shapes for a swastika in WWII media.

    People are going to complain one way or another.

    Thank you for interview clarifying things.

    See but, it's not the transgender symbol, it's the androgyne symbol, it's a real, separate symbol with its own meaning. Daisuke is very passionate about these things, if he meant for it to be the transgender symbol, it would be the full transgender symbol. He obviously meant for it to represent Bridget's uncertainty about her identity until the end of Strive. But of course you can't ever trust a journalist to actually do their research and know what they're talking about these days, even when getting their info straight from the source.

    Seriously man, literally every official source, including the official GG website, says she identifies as a girl. She's not just a crossdresser. Just get over it. Daisuke wouldn't be letting people call her trans if she wasn't trans.

    So that's the new narrative?
