More like, “I believe cishet white dudes are the default and any deviations must be explicitly justified.”

This is why g*mers and c*peshit enjoyers complain about diversity being so in your face. You act like the stuff that’s not in your face doesn’t exist.

    "Nonpolitical" consoomers assume that there's some "normal" that is the default state of being and that "normal" is a cishet white man and his helpmeet waifu.

    Unless that helpmeet waifu's already been fridged, then the other counterpart of "normal" is a camera-ogled daughter figure of some sort that needs "protecting" from politically-coded bad men in a very nonpolitically violent way. stalin-gun-1 lmayo us-foreign-policy

    “They were roommates” but for presenting as trans in every possible way.

    Its the same every time. "I think this character is x"

    frothingfash "NO STOP MAKING EVERYTHING X THE CHARACTER NOT X AAAH AAAAH WAAAGGHHHH"

    Can't even make every character gay anymore its cancel culture gone mad

          Yeah, she's been interpreted by many fans to be trans. I haven't seen the movies, but apparently many of her character's themes resonate a lot with trans people. There's a shot of her dad's jacket that shows that it has a trans pride flag patch stitched on it. It seems pretty likely that she's meant to be trans but it just isn't said explicitly.

    This is why it's praxis to say that any ambiguous characters are actually trans.

    One of my favorite things to do is go in the chat of whatever game I'm playing and confidently proclaim that a bunch of the characters are gay. Fun stuff.

      I'm not homophobic or w/e but the idea that a supporting character whose love life is never examined in this franchise that I like might quietly be queer DEMANDS A RESPONSE!
