Why do some uploaders refer to the guy as “her” rather than his? ????

I keep seeing this, as the title states, and it always confuses me. Why is this a thing?

I would put the question the other way round.  Why do some folk refer to girls as guys?

Hmmm, I'm not a hundred percent on that band wagon LeoKricov.     My go to person would have been FROM QUEEN.     Hence, Freddie Mercury, would say that at times I think in interviews or what have you BUT as far as I know he used it in the way I think the posters of these videos do.     To be tongue in cheek.    Or as I just thought...cock n' cheek!     :)     That is all there is to it in my opinion and I find it both very funny and hot too.     Sexual indeed.    I think Wunderbois and 99Twinks are under thirty!    :)     Just picking on them!     But, yeah.    Nice and cool question.    I understand the confusion and how they might think what they do but it is a culture thing.    Gay culture to be sure.   Silliness from what all I can genuinely tell.

I also suspect it's some translation error. Some languages apply masculine and feminine pronouns to inanimate objects as well, like the sun or the moon. I wonder if this may lead to the unfortunate use of phrases like "it jerks in the living room of its mother". I sometimes wonder if the feminine term is used wrongly to denote that the male is gay, which sounds offensive but may not be intended that way.

i noticed this but always assumed that it was an understandable mistake if english is not the writer's native language.... his / her like son / sa in french for example
