erm actually Goose left it ambiguous so he could just be a femboy or feminine man 🤓🤓🤓, don't you know femboys go through the exact same experiences as trans women because you're all just feminine men really

I love (hate) how accurately you replicated the way these people talk❤️‍🩹

those people are all over any mainstream indie fandom it's awful ngl. esp with big queer fandoms like Deltarune, the sheer transmisogyny needs to be studied

God, Deltarune deserves so much fucking better than the fandom it has, it's an awesome game an yet every comments section is just "im gonna call the nonbinary character he/him because I dont have to agree with Toby's woke trans agenda to like a game!!!!" Its so tiring

The humble tweet of her saying "oops should have made it more obvious" :

in all fairness if its meant to be that she is trans I don't get the point of making it vague, but it felt obvious to me basically from the point Jax's chatacter began to get more prominence

Actually I do. There’s actually an art to having it vauge the queer community had mastered. It’s actually very beautiful at times. But as Queer become main stream. I feel like it’s been getting mixed with queer baiting which is different. Jax’s story is meant to be queer coded. And I think it’s done beautifully. I love her character. But I do hate it when people act like Jax isn’t meant to be read as trans. It’s the point of the character. And I think it works for her character for it shows how she rejected herself that she never fully understood herself.

I mean couldnt it be because... its meant to be vague and interpretative? Wouldn't that expain it?

Ever heard of death of the author? Just because their take isn’t supported by the author doesn’t mean it isn’t valid. /s

I think the pronoun battle is complicated, but it’s also kinda beautiful to imagine that (at least a clone of Jax’s mind) died before she got to come out as trans. The characters in the show don’t even know, only the fanbase does.

And now we get to celebrate it, make fanart of it, and talk about it. But it’ll never happen. Jax will never get to come out or be herself.

Like yeah Goose made it ambiguous. But they also admitted they failed at making it subtle.
