Not strictly, it's all inclusive gender positivity. It's equally possible that the character is trans, gay, or cis. You don't need attraction to recognize attractiveness

The reason I ask is because as someone AMAB, and has not transitioned or anything, I can relate to a weird sense of guilt for being attracted to girls but also being jealous. It's hard to explain, and was just curious if this was a deep cut into my personal psychological experience or not =]

Hey. I've felt some of those feelings. You're valid.

Oh! I don't know anything about the artist, but I think it speaks a lot about how inclusive media is able speak to different people in different ways. I'm ace, and I had a similar realization that I don't need to feel shame when I notice someone attractive.
