(If you don't know: Gigi forgot that the brief for ENigmatic Recollection's characters was "yourself, but with amnesia" and created a male persona for herself in the game.

It's tag what you see, not what you know, and while Gonathan G identifies as a man that's still just Gigi, who is definitely a girl. I.e. If this was Romeo and Juliette with Gigi and Romeo and Juliette as Ame, it'll still be yuri even if Gigi "Romeo" acts and is identified as a male character.
