You claim that futanari has existed as a real, historical classification for over a thousand years is simply a myth that confuses contemporary hentai terminology with older Japanese words that had ENTIRELY different meanings.
The use of the word futanari (成 or ふたなり) is referring to a woman with both female and male genitalia, male genitalia, or just the rod and the vag. In erotic anime or manga or anything porn related, is a purely fictional and modern fantasy concept, popularized in postwar Japanese pornography, especially from the 1980s onward. Historically, the word did exist in Japan, but it actually meant something completely different. In early Japanese usage during the Heian and Edo periods, futanari meant “dual form” or “androgynous nature”, it was used to describe people, animals, or even spirits perceived as having both masculine and feminine characteristics in a poetic or spiritual sense as Japan especially during these periods were very spirit so it did not refer to literal anatomy combining male and female sex organs, and it was certainly not a social or biological classification lol.
There's also no historical record from the Asuka, Heian, or Edo periods describing “males with breasts” being called futanari in any medical, legal, or cultural document. Pre-modern Japan had concepts of gender fluidity and performers (such as onnagata in kabuki theater) who played female roles, but those traditions had to do with gender performance, not intersex conditions or eroticized depictions of hermaphroditic anatomy. The idea of a “futanari” with a penis and breasts in an erotic context is simply a late 20th-century invention.
The “futanari” concept doesn’t describe trans women or intersex folks at all, it’s an entirely fictional erotic archetype that blends masculine and feminine anatomy for fantasy purposes, not anything real or applicable to Earth.
Is this the character people speculate might be trans? To clarify, any individual who produces male gametes is biologically male. A quick note: having a vagina does not automatically mean someone is female. The key factor is the predominant characteristics. If an individual only produces male gametes and lacks a vagina, they are biologically male. If they identify as a woman, they would be considered trans. Similarly, if someone has a vagina but does not produce female gametes—or does not exhibit female gamete production—while possessing complete male genitalia and producing only male gametes, they are biologically male, much like a male intersex individual in real life!!!
