:I assume it's pronounced like ''girl'' but with a ''k'' sound instead of the ''g''("''Kirl''").

::That is speculation. We do not have any sources that say how people who identify as qirls pronounce the word. --[[User:Sekhet|Sekhet]] ([[User talk:Sekhet|talk]]) | |||

::That's true, that still doesn't meet the new policy. It looks like that post was submitted by the personal blog "BoiQirl," a blog which has since been deleted, and is not available on Archive.org, so we don't know if that was a sideblog run by the term's coiner or somebody else. The personal blog of the person who originally coined it, Vmerli, has also been deleted. Since both blogs are gone, that gives us fewer leads in finding good enough evidence of use of this term. If only it had been submitted to a Gender Census. I haven't checked for it in every year's census yet, just in 2016 and 2019. --[[User:Sekhet|Sekhet]] ([[User talk:Sekhet|talk]]) | |||
