A female character who resembles [[Bishonen|a pretty, androgynous boy]] but in a positive [[Fan Service|fetishistic]] way, usually coupled with an appropriate 'masculine' outfit of varying conceivability [[Only Six Faces|depending on the artwork]]. Swooned over by [[Unsettling Gender Reveal|confused females]] as much as outright [[Schoolgirl Lesbians]]. Sometimes in the episode they're introduced, they're confused for men until the other characters recognize and treat them as girls. Occasionally, it's also a roundabout way of adding a stereotypically 'male' role to a show that doesn't have (or [[Improbably Female Cast|want]]) one. Very often subject to at least one [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]] gag, sometimes even after [[The Reveal]] of their true biological sex. |
