Why did Link dress like a girl?

Link dresses like a girl primarily in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (BOTW) for a specific quest where he must disguise himself as a "vai" (woman) to enter the male-restricted Gerudo Town, a gameplay mechanic allowing access to the area and providing heat resistance.

Are femboys part of LGBTQ?

Femboys are not inherently part of the LGBTQ+ community, as "femboy" describes a gender expression (feminine presentation by someone who is often male/man), not a sexual orientation or gender identity, though many femboys are queer, non-binary, or trans, and the community overlaps heavily with LGBTQ+ spaces and identities. A femboy can be straight, gay, bi, asexual, or any orientation; the term itself just means a male-identified person (often cisgender) who presents femininely, but they aren't automatically LGBTQ+ unless they also identify with a queer orientation or gender identity.
