@lara yes that's about right... MIAD is literally "man in a dress" and typically they want to be called he/him all the time, because they are not presenting "female", they are literally a man in a dress. They might even have beards or bald heads - because they're men. In fact most of the ones I've seen on this site don't wear makeup and/or wigs, possibly they think that's too much of "woman" thing? But there's no hard and fast rules, like everything else in the LGBTQ+ umbrella, the individual defines the rules for themselves.
There are several MIADs active on this site and that's great. It wouldn't be my thing, but each to their own.
Pronouns in general - you'll see I've used "they" a lot in the first paragraph (actually I haven't used "he" or "she" at all in this post). That was deliberate to illustrate why some non-binary people use "they/them", because it's already an established way in standard English for telling a story about a person where their gender is not important. "I asked the bartender for another beer but they said I'm too drunk". The gender of the bartender is not relevant to the story, so "they".
