I don’t know that much about Astolfo, but they seem closer to implied nonbinary than a strict femboy, though I could be wrong
Bridget is also a character I think of because she used to get this treatment a lot before she was recently explicitly confirmed as a trans girl
From what I’ve heard from a friend who cares more about anime than I do, Ferris definitely seems like one of those characters who’s basically a trans girl but everyone pretends is a trap “femboy”, partly due to the source material not handling it well

This stuff annoys me so much and it’s also present in genderbending fiction where writers will swap someone’s gender for the laughs but never actually consider the implications. Is it so hard not to write about things you know nothing about?
Is this a reference to Ferris, or is Astolfo trans too?
