In the second audio clip at the bottom of this article, she states she uses only she/her pronouns. I will do some more research and update when I find out, as of now I'd go with she/her. https://nowtoronto.com/music/mykki-blanco/ As far as I know, Blanco identifies as a gay man. Can someone provide a source on what pronouns Blanco prefers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.23.99 ( talk) 22:29, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
In Alissa Greenberg's article (Poet-rapper-artist Mykki Blanco:I'm Living With HIV), she writes that Blanco grew up in Harlem. However, the current wikipedia article mentions that he grew up in California and didn't move to New York until he was a teenager. Also, the sentence "Through coming out with this hard-hitting information, Blanco says that he feels like a good person when he hasn't felt that way in a long time" seems slightly wordy and maybe a little confusing.

There is currently a discussion at Talk:Gay Dog Food#Notability dispute, where an editor with zero contributions to Mykki Blanco-related articles doubts the notability of Mykki Blanco's 2014 mixtape, Gay Dog Food, and has proposed merging/deleting the article. Any help will be appreciated. 153.228.131.203 ( talk) 03:14, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
The most recent publications relating to this artist indicate a preference for male pronouns, however this page may be best suited to be under Wikipedia:Gender-neutral language. Do you all feel this change is most appropriate, or should the indicated use of male pronouns as is be maintained? [1] John Maguire ( talk) 20:38, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Hey there, several editors have tried to edit the article to match the artist's preference for they/them and she/her pronouns. However, these edits have not been made because a recent contribution to the Talk page has not been made on it. I'm referencing her Instagram post in which she talks about her taking estrogen and using they/them and she/her. I concur with the above suggestion of using Wikipedia:Gender-neutral language.

Hello, I just wanted add a source to this discussion because the instagram story is deleted/invisible. Here is a podcast where she describes her recent experience in her transition and HRT. She also discusses about the first time she presented as femme and how the character of Mykki Blanco was the awakening of her trans-identity.

Hello, fellow editors,
I was wondering if it wouldn't be appropriate to remove categories that puts them as a drag queen. Although many media labels them a drag performer, they have publicly refuted that claim (as mentioned in this article), and intention is essential for drag. Otherwise we are just calling any performer that is (often wrongly) viewed 'cross-dressing' as drag. Thanks! Akira YL ( talk) 15:04, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
