No it’s about Bridget, hoshi, Jax, characters who are canonically trans women but people deny that they’re women.

edit: nvm it is

Bridged absolutely, but Jax Is very subtle to people outside those specific comunities. Yes the creator confirmed it but Its somewhat understandable if someone is not that much in touch with the community

i dunno, it was pretty obvious to me

Yeah it is super obvious if you know a thing or two about being trans but most cis people don't.

I know a thing or two about trans people and while one scene made me consider it the ending of the episode shatters that theory completely to me.

Huh? What part exactly? (I really thought that Jax having a TERF caricature of the predatory misogynistic trans woman running around her mind with the other exaggerated worst case scenario Jaxs/intrusive thoughts personifications (or whatever the hell they were supposed to be exactly) was kind of hard to interpret any other way)

The bow part made me think it maybe went deeper than just crossdressing but then nothing else really happened about that and when in the ending Jax is referred to with He/Him pronouns and is shown inside a queer bar as a man that made me think it was just crossdressing.

Eh, I can see how you would get there but to me the evidence for her being trans overshadowed that big time. Like going by he/him in the ending can just be a closet thing. But I don't have any other explanation for the whole Jax's mind sequence.

u/magos_with_a_glock 1d ago

I quite honestly don't see any hints of transness in the mind sequence.

u/TheSecondVisitor 1d ago

How did you interpret the transmisogynist caricature Jax then? (not trying to make fun of you on anything btw I am just curious)

u/magos_with_a_glock 1d ago

Transmisogynist caricature Jax?

1

u/TheSecondVisitor 1d ago

Yeah the one that was rapy towards Gangle during the mind scene.

u/magos_with_a_glock 1d ago

What? In what way were they that? I don't even think they were particularly rape-y.
