Because it’s not GL, it’s Genderswap. You probably forgot since our Main character doesn’t act like a dude at all.

But I learned from the comments when I said this before, some people vehemently don’t agree with me here. Genderswap is not GL, and I will die on that hill.
To be completely honest if a man immediately starts acting like a girl the way this guy pretty much did as soon as he was magically at that point the character is about as genuinely a girl as any other girl. So, like the tag still applies.

Your opinion doesn't change the validity of this fact.

You are correct, GL and Genderswap are entirely different tags with different meanings. BUT you can have a genderswap GL story. If people are removing the tag just because of that reason you gave then that's a bad reason. The only good reason to remove the tag is if the story in the source publications doesn't have the tag.

Fact? Define fact. Because what you just said isn’t a fact. It’s Supposition. All you’re saying is that it should’ve been a woman from the start.

Okay then sir or madam what do you suggest a story where a person permanently exists in a female form and enters a relationship with women should actually be tagged?

As much as you may not like it a story can be tagged as both Genderswap and Girls Love because they're a girl from now on.

Genderswap manga tends to be written by people who go out of their way to ignore the fact that the genderswap happened at all but because it happened the tag is there and it will stick.

If GB isn't GL, then why aren't all the manga where a guy gets GB'd into a woman and falls in love with a man labeled BL? Would a woman being GB'd into a man and then falling in love with a woman be GL? I doubt you would want to call it that.

Not to mention that it makes looking for GB GL manga impossible without having to sift though all the "straight" GB manga. I'm not interested in reading those, so why do you think they should be categorized the same?

Your take makes no sense on any front.

Do you honestly want me to answer this? Because you already know the answer. Brace! Brace!!!

They are a man in a woman’s body. They remain the same gender just in a different body. Gasp

TBH your mentality would also get the few but still existing genderqueer/trans coded type genderbend manga where the character is actually female in mind and ends up with women also labeled as not girls love.

Also, even outside of those examples I've noticed that Genderbend manga that don't do somewhat complicated gender identity tend to but don't always adhere to the idea that the body has an effect on mentality as a fact. So, in a lot of stories Girl body = Girlish mind

Are you saying you're the one who removed it?

Thats completely untrue. lol. Males and females have structural differences in their brains. Its a fact.

And interestingly enough, trans people have differences from other members of their biological sex that tend to align with the opposite sex even before they seek hormone therapies. And...the changes become more noticable after hormone treatments over time.

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-there-something-unique-about-the-transgender-brain/

So it makes sense that if its that much of a difference in trans people, then it would be an even bigger difference in this instance, in which case someone is literally transmigrated into the body of the opposite sex.

You can say "its a man in a womans body" but theres no such thing. Thats a colloquialism. Since we cannot prove that souls exist, or that they have a gender, your argument is pretty illogical to me. At worst Susie is a masculine girl or an oddity among females, but is still physically female.

And since gauging a persons 'mental gender' or 'gender identity' is something only they can do, its not relevant to your argument. The author identifies this series as a GL and has marked the webnovel as such on its site of origin.

So thats the way it shall be classified here as well...

if someone wants to read a GL genderswap manga, how would they search for that according to you?

Yes. Exactly my point.

Also, tags dont work the way he's saying. Its suppose to be that all the primary genre elements are tagged. I.e, if it is a Yuri Genderbender, both will be tagged. Personality of a character doesn't matter.

And its done that way for exactly the reason you just mentioned.

He also said people are 'vehemently disagreeing' about it. Its like yes, they are...but not because they are simply being opinionated or merely disagreeing with you. Its because you are just plain wrong and clearly dont understand how tags work. Its not a shade of grey or a matter of opinion. lol.

And the dude has been a member here since 2018? With almost 2000 messages? lol! He's been here that long and doesn't understand how the tags work? This dude cant even be fixed. He's perma-broke. lol.
