Oh I got called selfish on Reddit for saying she was a woman and it is offensive saying she was a man. The beauty of the story was that she saved her fathers life by becoming a soldier in his place. Making her really a dude after all takes away from that and makes the story incredibly misogynistic. Also Disney's Mulan was very much a stereotypical modern Disney female character: she didn't fit in, she was dreamy, she had an animal side kick. Also Reflections is like Colors of the Wind, Part of Your World, and other Disney princess songs. it is a song lots of people can relate to. They need to write their own damn stories instead of trying to make characters trans. Shit, they even try making real life strong women trans.
