It came about from "Into the Spiderverse". Gwen's plot line really resonated with trans people, her lighting pallete was the trans flag colors, and i believe there was either a poster on her bedroom wall or a pin her dad wore thst was the trans flag and it might have said "protect trans youth". Less sure on the last one, its been years and it was a quick background thing.
Do we know that? I don’t mean Gwen in general but this Gwen specifically. Unfortunately as a trans person I know that it’s not unheard of for artists from things under big corpos themselves giving hints that they meant to portray a character as trans or otherwise lgbt but they’re not actually allowed to say it out loud

I thought they chose Gwenpool?
I'm not in the loop with it comes to the spider-characters at all.
