@Plykiya Better than Hourou Musuko? You drive a hard bargain if such a toughtful, intelligent and incisive series can't meet your standards...

@Plykiya Fair enough. Even if, to be honest, Hourou Musuko never tried to appear as a fairytale-like story, so I didn't expect a true happy ending.

You're just asking your bro to do your hair for you. Nothing gay about that. You don't have cash for a barbershop and your boy down the street has some clippers, so you get that fresh cut for cheap. Nope, nothing wrong with that.

@Plykiya @anotherone @linette .... keep in mind Hourou Musukou isnt really crossdressing, they are trans so while it may look similar it comes with different emotions and feelings of discovery... it is also why it didnt really have a fairy tale ending, it was supposed to be more representative of the struggles transpeople face in society (especially at the time of writing) and so obviously it wouldnt have much of a happy ending. when you consider that Hourou Musukou was a great manga, one of the best mangas in existence when it comes to trans topics (most genderbenders are just "put cishet boy inside a girl body" sometimes they end up liking men who knows, and many crossdressing is more of a gag where they are forced into it some way)... even if the manga is a bit outdated with its information. 😃

@Nari I'd say whether or not it's crossdressing has more to do with how the person doing it defines it. Japan isn't too on board the politically correct train so even in instances where there's a transgender or questioning character they still might say what they're doing is crossdressing more often than not. Pretty sure that's what happens in Hourou Musuko. Nothing wrong with calling it crossdressing if it's how they themselves define it, but it is rude to call it crossdressing when a trans person does it and they just consider it dressing normally

@Plykiya yeah thats the point though, the MC of Hourou Musukou is actually trans, hence its rude to call it crossdressing because saying a transgirl who wears girl clothes is "crossdressing" implies you believe the transgirl is not actually a girl. im not sure about the FtM character of the story, that part got confusing at the end, but the MC was clearly written as trans

sometimes however a transperson may call it crossdressing early on, but this is because they themselves dont yet see themselves as a girl or boy, im trans myself, i know this from experience, but that still doesnt change the fact that its not actually crossdressing as a transgirl is a girl, not a boy dressing as a girl.

@Linnette [asks the following question elsewhere on this comment thread---]

" I know this is a weird place to ask, but does anyone have a manga recommendation that's similar to this?

CuteGothLolita answers with a suggestion---

This manga has such similar theme and story line. I hope you review it and find it is what you wanted---

Also---Twin Tails are the best, even if they are somewhat short !
