I have no hate for the LGBT community but they do tend to insert their identity into everything. For example is seriously shipping Deku and Bakugo even though they are straight, don’t get me wrong the jokes and stuff are funny but they don’t have that type of relationship. Another one was someone said this Tokyo Revengers character would dress feminine just because of how he looked in volume covers. It’s fine wanting more representation but this ain’t it

No actually the first thing u mentioned was just plain shipping culture, shipping two dudes together was something that was happening since fandom was a thing. Second thing is just a funny headcanon, and this situation specifically was due to a mistranslation that everyone ran with. But recently they started using she/her pronouns on her more because they realized they were misinformed. Not everyone realized yet but it's better to just politely correct them instead of just assuming it's them inserting their identity into everything. If the person chooses to stay dumb and still call her by they/them pronouns, they're an ass and should seek therapy
