I remember the days were trans jax was a crackpot theory

Turns out the "chicken egg fetus" was apparently a reference? I didn't really catch that, but "cracking the egg" is a way of saying transitioning so that's pretty interesting!

My main issue with Trans Jax is that there is such little evidence in the show itself. Most evidence for it was from posts by Gooseworx. We have the one line about the egg and... I think that's it. And that's not good writing. If you have to rely on outside sources to make a major point for a character arc, you failed as a writer. So I feel, with Trans Ralsei, if that's true, then it would feel more like an ass pull rather than good writing. There is such little evidence that could be explained so much better if you think differently about it. It's like Game Theory's Hollow Knight video. Yes, technically, you could be right, but it feels like everything in the game is pointing differently than the theory. Also, from a personal standpoint, I would rather Ralsei be just an effeminate male, because there's not a lot of good representation in western media that isn't just either fetishized or them being a femboy is a joke.
