There seems to be conflict. As far as anyone interested knows, fa'afafine are a Samoan type of bigender people (between male and female) that, while typically leaning toward supreficial masculine characteristics, does not fit binary model of gender... yet the article also notes a (well-sourced!) gender transition, an odd for a intersex/non-binary person.
There seems to be no info about pronouns on either Jaiyah's Facebook or Instagram, so, until clarification, pronouns are changed to they (please don't use that for anything else in article as a compromise. stupid english language).

As a follow-up, she calls herself a trans woman in this article: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/aug/29/jaiyah-saelua-transgender-footballer-interview. Do not edit trans people's pages if you can't be bothered to do very basic research. The information you requested was linked in this very article that you chose to butcher. If you want to delete a trans person's pronouns, you need to provide substantial evidence for doing so. Don't bulldoze into trans articles. There was no conflict in this article. You should ask questions in the talk page rather than taking inappropriate and unilateral action when you clearly are unfamiliar with the subject at hand. Otherwise all you're doing is creating harm and spreading transphobia. Stop it. 24.141.118.159 (talk) 07:57, 21 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
It's not right that trans women have to constantly prove their gender or else cis editors on this site revert to they/them status. Particularly when the evidence for her gender is listed *in this very article* it just comes off as incredibly transphobic. Cis pages are not filled with demands for mountains of evidence of someone's gender. Stop deleting her pronouns. I've edited this article to revert her pronouns back to before some other contributor edited it. If you want to change her pronouns to they/them, you should provide substantial evidence for it. They/them pronouns are not a compromise. 24.141.118.159 (talk) 06:07, 21 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
