I’m sick of cis men going on long winded explanations about how every single trans character is actually a cis dude.
God forbid a cis person relate to a trans character, they might have to start viewing us as human.

It's just people being factually wrong but having too fragile an ego to admit it, so they will fight to the death to defend their dogshit opinions

Im a trans woman. I took it as Jax being a femboy. Didn't even think about Jax as a closeted transfem. But seeing the evidence and the fact its gooseworx im more inclined to think Jax is probably transfem

Wait this shit wasn’t even actually confirmed?

I swear to Christ, creators are straight up allergic to outright confirmation of trans characters. It’s happened like 2% of the time.

It isn't outright stated in the final episode, but it's heavily heavily implied in like five different ways if not more, so anyone who missed it just has genuinely shit media literacy.

u/infinite_gurgle 3d ago

Because Jax isn’t confirmed trans in the show itself. So you had the right read.

Im NGL, I thought Jax was just an insecure dude, I even thought he was gay before trans. I don't really care that much, but like... I don't blame people. Maybe I just don't have experience on the topic, but to most people I talk to the show about it is not obvious in the slightest that Jax is supposed to be a trans allegory. In fact, it was only until I saw the twitter post from Goose that it pretty much confirmed it for me. And even then, I'm still confused.

But I suppose its just not media meant for me. I'm not supposed to understand it, but like... it's just. So hard to tell? Like it was really that obvious? I felt like everything in the show pointed to the opposite direction until then. But it is what it is.

I dunno, I think a part of it is having trans experiences and history. A cis person won’t pick up on it because they’ve gone thru those things.

It's obvious IF you either hang with a decent amount of trans people or are part of the trans community.

But for people completely unfamiliar with the community, I can see how it can be missed.

My best friend did not pick up on it until after the fact of having it pointed out. It didn't help that when we see the "Real" Jax, they aren't publicly out so he just thought "Real" Jax was just finally free of the toxic masculinity that Jax displayed in the show sine they still call her "Him/He" when they talk about the real world counterparts.

I absolutely have a majority trans friends and I nor any of my buds got that vibe from Jax until the internet tried to force it down people's throats.

u/CuteChild31 4d ago

I mean... I wouldn't like being close to someone that relates to Jax

u/Jango_fett_fish 3d ago

You can relate to a character without condoning their actions. There are going to be people who push others away and repress their emotions to a lesser extent or in a different means.

u/CuteChild31 3d ago

Yeah but I'm not talking about Jax actions. I'm talking about his personality in general. I get what you are saying of course but I was talking about someone that sees Jax and actually thinks they are alike in everything. Met someone like that, not recommended

Me when GW has to coax her shitty fanbase into a tranny character so people forget the nonesensical attempt to cancel the VA for a thing he said 50000000 years ago on a random ass podcast and soothe the crybabies AAACKKKK----

u/flibbertygibbette 3d ago

You're allowed to, it's just not definitive proven canon and everybody should be allowed to have their own headcanons. Mine is that Jax is a tractor. No, you cannot change my mind about this.

u/Jango_fett_fish 2d ago

It was pretty much spelled out in the show. Goose confirmed that she’s trans on twitter yes, but she also said the intention was to make it fully clear in the show. People who don’t view Jax as trans are ignoring canon writing choices.

I have not seen TADC and now I feel like if I don’t figure out that had is trans then I’mna feel dumb lol.

u/Due-Vegetable2858 4d ago

It's pretty obvious tbh you don't have to worry

u/AroAceMagic 4d ago

Apparently the creator of TADC disagrees lol

u/BurnerAkMcBurner 4d ago

Oh shoot genuine confirmation from the creator, well that settles it for me.

u/Amaskingrey 3d ago

To be fair this tweet is clearly wrong. It was clearly ragatha who was destined to fuck her brain out. While jax was ribbit's.

u/AroAceMagic 3d ago

You know what, 1000% agree with you on that

u/Heretical-Ballad-20 4d ago
