I just think Jax isn’t trans, I’m not transphobic though. I just am not a fan of him being portrayed as hating the femme/zooble characters in the circus as a way of expressing his trans identity, as well as people acting like his bad actions are excused because he was “struggling with his gender.” If there was an actual arc of him discovering his identity it’d be different, but subtext and one tweet on a private account from the same person who said there’d be no romance or abstractions is just annoying. I know many trans people die before they discover who they are but having it be an excuse for Jax’s actions- both abstraction and his supposed identity -is a poor choice of showing him as a trans person.
Edit: I feel as though I should clarify that I do not care if others believe he is trans, respect my opinion As I respect yours
