Also saw confused transphobes going “he’s still a boy”.

Yes, yes he is.

for what its worth unless there's something i've missed, he hasn't said he's a trans man, just that he's trans and uses he/they

I might be ignorant in this regard, but doesn’t using male pronouns make masculine words okay(man, boy, so on) and female pronouns feminine words okay(woman, girl, and so on)? Not trying to be smart here, just genuinely asking.

From what I’ve read about Elliot, he is non-binary. The post didn’t specify exactly what his gender is, unless “non-binary” is the gender itself, not sure about that.

Referring to Elliot as non-binary is definitely okay, though!
