Western fans really need to learn the concept of values dissonance. Especially when they come into wuxia fandoms and say things like "this character is GNC so obviously he's trans". No, he doesn't conform to modern American ideas of masculinity. He does conform to traditional Chinese ideas of masculinity. (His GNC-ness is that he... wears colourful clothes and writes poetry.) No Chinese person would ever think he's either GNC or trans.
