why gabriel agreste is trans *NOT clickbait* *written at three ahy ehm*

He legally changed his name from ‘’Gabi’’ to ‘’Gabriel’’

He rarely ever talks about his background or where he came from. He’s canonically an extremely secretive recluse

He’s estranged from his birth family, and was the one who enforced/initiated that

The way he treats Adrien could possibly be Gabriel projecting onto him

Butterflies symbolize metamorphosis, change, and being born anew. Many transgender people identify with butterflies because of this

He was a punk when he was a teenager/young adult. He could’ve faded out of this belief in order to completely pass as a cisgendered man

He had the pinnacle of a ‘’rags to riches’’ background 

The fashion industry is filled with queer influences, particularly those of gay men

This could be attributed to his constant professional demeanor and persona, but he always wears suits and ties. He’s never been shown to wear anything else, except in very few instances (note: this is very minor, it’s common for characters in cartoons to wear the same outfit in order to keep consistency.)
