Rap Trouble @Treblebaps. 5h Gwen is blatantly a trans woman in this movie, it's never outright spoken but the implication is unavoidable. If the "protect trans kids" sign above her door wasn't enough for you, her entire story as Spiderwoman centers around her dad accepting her identity. O 1 611 ↑ 18 Trouble @Treblebaps. 5h Whenever Gwen is struggling with her identity as Spiderwoman, especially in regards to "coming out" about it to her father, the colours of the movie become pink, blue, and white. As in her colour palette, and the palette of the background, change entirely to the trans flag. 9 2 1 17 20 ♡ 558 Trouble @Treblebaps. 5h Her and her father's relationship is one that starts with disownment, and ends in acceptance. Her personal struggle with her identity as Spiderwoman, and her dad's perception of her, is a direct trans metaphor. 27 12 ♡ 445 Trouble @Treblebaps. 5h And although I cannot directly quote the movie by memory, the dialog is so distinctly drawn from things that might be said when coming out or arguing with a parent. Replace "Spiderwoman" with "woman" and divorce it from the context of the story, and it hits very close to home. O 1 22 11 15 405 Trouble @Treblebaps. 5h Gwen is a trans woman. Both literally, and metaphorically. O 4 ↑ 428 ↑ ↑ Trouble @Treblebaps 1h Thought I may have just been seeing things while watching the film. But no, her dad is wearing a trans flag on his police jacket as well. The sign above Gwen's door isn't her just being supportive, she IS trans and her dad is supportive OF her in that regard.

14 hr. ago i think the flag in her room is the strongest bit of text in there. Like, sure, maybe ally. But, like... a person with a trans flag in their bedroom? near obvious implication for the people with trainee senses 24 Reply Share 13 hr. ago There was also the coming out speech to her dad that had trans colors everywhere and had her hair change to them Idk it felt just coded enough to go over cishets heads but pretty obviously trans (not officially confirmed of course) 10 Reply Share 2 which is objectively worse than just not doing representation at all tbdesu. nobody asked for this but if they're doing it then it's such a cowardly way to go like, if it's received really poorly they can cop out or if it's received really well they can say she was queer the whole time but in the meantime any trans person that picks up on it and talks about it openly will field all the aggro from internet jerks while the people that made this can decide what seems like the most profitable path forward. It's gross. Reply Share 9 hr. ago ... 8 hr. ago I mean I kinda agree but I don't blame the filmmakers, there's no way Sony would let them have a trans person as a main character in their huge blockbuster kids movie so the most they can do is imply it. It isn't the animators' fault, its capitalism's fault (it's a metaphor for capitalism?) 23 Reply Share 1 7 hr. ago maybe but either way it's just really spite inducing being a part of a minority group that can only exist in subtext or as supporting characters in cis people's narratives, I hate that cis people get to just exist center stage of everything, it's just tiresome.
