No I understood your point entirely. I just think the argument you used to make it is silly.

thank you for explaining it without snark.

I can see similarities (like they feel they were born in the wrong bodies/skin) but similiar =/= same and I was trying to explain it to myself in ways beyond “just because” you did a much better job.

Dear god thank you. This is the first time I’ve read this argument to the transracial debate or whatever it’s called. I have been wondering why nobody has been bringing up the main difference being choice.

"Because while Agent Carter (the character) is a strong female in her own right, the only males portrayed in a positive light are either dead, incapable of helping themselves, or milquetoasts (hello, Jarvis!)."

From his description it sounds like a movie about a man disguised as a movie about women: the important thing about these women is what they taught HIM.

Aaaaah yes, a "clopen" is what I've always heard them called...
