(obviously it's ok that this user got banned, it's just the switch2boycott/andjusticeforall/basedball or whatever person who has said transphobic things in the past, that's not my point)
In the post in question, there was never any indication that the girlfriend character was not a girl, and I hope that the Hexbear mod team can at least recognize that it's possible for a person to both be a girl and nonbinary at the same time.
Also, while it's probably true that most people who identify as non-binary and also as a woman or girl use she/they or they/she pronouns, you could literally use he/him pronouns (or any other) and still identify as both. The whole point here is that there aren't really rules about how someone can feel about their gender.
no you're totally right. as a NB i jokingly call myself a "he/they" or a they as a tongue-in-cheek shorthand for identity (so do a lot of my NB friends w/ their own pronouns) but pronouns =/= gender identity
