❶ Bridget being a trans girl is completely incompatible with his backstory.
❷ If Daisuke really did have the vision to turn him trans, he would shy away from continuing to call Bridget a boy in Japanese promo material (e.g. figurine descriptions still call him a boy), indicating that he’s only pinkwashing.
❸ If Bridget were a trans girl, that would validate the TERF argument that adults are “grooming” children to be trans, due to his backstory matching that transphobic drivel to a tittle.
❹ Making Bridget a trans girl reinforces gender binarist / egg theorist stereotypes that if a boy is feminine, he must be a girl.
❺ Stealing one of the first characters, if not THE first character, who identifies as a man, presents himself feminine, and is NOT written as comic relief, from vulnerable gender non-conforming people is bigoted and oppressive to an entire category of already socially ostracized people who want freedom of gender expression.
For fuck’s sake, man. You haven’t improved a bit since 10 months ago. Do better.
