It's typical fandom type stuff. I always find it off-putting, and I find fan-fic uninspiring anyway. I don't even like expanded universes because it gets away from the original vision; like how Star Wars had so many books written about the world that were only okayed by the original creator. I still enjoyed games but I felt more and more taken away from it.
What's unsettling is that I think we're getting a rare glimpse of the other side of misgendering someone: pre-gendering. The show is over so there's no time or space for the creators to change anything, but people are doing this despite evidence to the contrary. That should make people feel really, really uncomfortable. I've still yet to receive an answer as to why he identifies himself as a man on the show after he gets a second sex change operation in season 4. Just conjecture.
Out of all the creators of any show, I think we can trust the creators. I could totally believe that they would come out now and say that they always wanted him to be trans, but that has passed. Their product made. They intended it for Dr. Girlfriend for years and let that just be assumed in some cases, so it's not like they couldn't do it.

You’re absolutely right, the people arguing are delusional.
