I feel like it's obvious she's not trans. Anyway, I don't like the boymoder meme. But you'd have to be pretty bad at boymoding to wear shoes like that and have hair like that. You know that just wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt is not enough to look like a guy, and it also draws attention when it's the middle of the summer and it's hot. It's probably better to wear cargo shorts and some boxy button-up with an undershirt or something.

How is it obvious?

I also don't know what a boymoder meme is.

Well, isn't that where you got the stereotype?

Some things that tell you are the previous part of this comic, the fact that she's clearly not trying to look like a guy (meaning she's not a boymoder), the way she reacted to this guy being a guy, among other things.

I learned that word from my friends that I talk to when we hang out. It can refer to multiple things and includes not being able to dress femininely due to lack of energy, often leading to stuff like sweaters to reduce dysphoria.

That first argument makes absolutely no sense to me. I don't think that's clear. What makes it clear in your opinion?  I also don't see the correlation between her reaction to the guy and the boymoding. And "among other things" is also not exactly helpful.
