Then vs Now: Miracle on 34th Street

[animefankotaro]

Trans Susan (Miracle on 34th Street)

December 1946

Susan Walker was a very special child Kris Kringle thought. For one she was almost like a grown up in a kids body. Her mother originally raised her this way teaching her the truth rather than lie. One thing that botherd Kris was that she thought her there was no Santa Claus. He thought that wasn't right. Susan is a kid and should get to act and think like one. She has all her life to be a bitter adult. That wasn't the biggest shock though. What was bigger was that Kris found out she was born a he. She used to be a boy named Stu but felt like a girl.

“What do you mean you were born a boy?” Kris asked.

“I was born wrong. I should have been a girl instead. I told my mom that I was one and she let me become a girl”

“Does your father know about this?” Kris asked. Susan hook her head.

“Mom thinks that if he finds out he'll take me away and make me be a boy again. He would also send mom to the nut house.”

“What about the other kids?”

“They make fun of me sometimes. One boy once saw me wearing a new dress and playing with a doll and said “What kind of boy plays with dolls and wear dresses?” and I said. “I'm not a boy I'm a girl. He then walked away with a weird face.”

Kris wasn't sure he understood. She claimed to have written to him once when her mom wasn't looking wishing to be a girl. When it didn't happen she believed her mother there was no Santa. Kris talked to Doris about it.

“She told me last year that she felt like a girl. At first I thought he just wanted my attention or was confused about something. So I bought him some dresses and called him by his new name Susan. Before I knew it Susan was here to stay.”

“What have the reactions been like?” Doris sighed.

“I have a lot of parents calling me crazy and that Susan should be taken away from me. One couple said they would cut Susans hair themselves. If that happened she would be devastated. It look her months to grow it long.”

“What do you plan to do for the future? Let her become a woman? There will be puberty in the future.” Doris nodded.

“I've read about how men used to have their bits removed so they're voice wouldn't drop back in the olden days. It would also prevent facial hair. Maybe if Susan is still sure in several years we can consider it. I'm not sure how she can get breast though. I know she could never get pregnant. I want her to be happy. I know she wants a new birth certificate with her new name and declaring that she's female. I've told her that won't be able to happen. I wish there was a way it could.”

During his court session Kris wondered it Susan would get a similar trial. While he was trying to prove he was Santa she would have to prove she was a girl. Kris chuckled. Maybe they weren't so different actually. Eventually Kris won the case and was legally Santa. It seems all was said and good. But he was unable to get Susan the house she wanted; or change her into a real girl. Susan was rather upset.

“I knew you weren't the real Santa.” Susan cried “You're just a nice man with a beard.”

“I'm sorry, Susan. I tried to get you that house but I was unable to.”

“And turn me into a girl.”

“That proved even harder. But look here.” He put her in front of a mirror. “Now what do you see?”

“You and me.” Susan said.

“Who am I in the mirror? Who's refection do you see?”

“Santa's.”

“Me too. And who's reflection do you see for yourself?”

“Me. Susan.”

“Exactly. Me too. I see a little girl named Susan. She's already proven she's a girl. She doesn't need a piece of paper for it.”

“I guess. You did though.” Susan replied.

“Proving to be Santa is a lot harder than proving you're a girl. Just remember Susan that this mirror already proves it.” Susan nodded though was still disappointed none the less. However, it didn't take long for Susan and her family to find her dream house. That wasn't it. There was also a birth certificate sent to them with Susan's new name and declaring she was female.

“I knew he was real I knew it!” Susan said happily. After Susan left the room Doris talked to Fred quietly.

“First the house now this. By law Susan is a girl.” Fred nodded.

“Yes. It seems like she got her wish.”

“We still have to worry about her in the future. She doesn't want a beard like Mr. Kringle.

“We'll find a doctor then who can fix her. Unless Kris can do something about it first.” He looked at a cane that was by the fireplace. Doris nodded happy that she meet Kris Kringle and made him Santa.

Animator and Writer Looking For Your Help

This is extremely accurate. I have no idea how long I’ll be out of work currently and I meet with a lot of friends in the industry in the same place. The time between projects is becoming longer and I’m at a point where I do love animation and telling stories, but I want to stop being dependent on studios and networks for a living wage. It’s terrible to constantly not know how long you’ll be out of a job with no insurance.

I’m going to try to get more of my work out there (Not by pitching to studios, that rarely goes anywhere. Especially if it’s an original story). I want to try book publishing again. Novels and comics. In the past, my stories had great reviews, but I could never get the word out on them. I’m hoping you’ll help me drive my work to being my full time job. I want to focus only on my own characters and stories without needing to desperately look for the next studio project to get onto. My stuff doesn’t get a big reaction typically, though Doris went further than most with her fan made Discord (Which I really absolutely love!) To keep these ideas going and building more, I need your help.

Thank you,

GIVE US YOUR AMERICAN HOUSEWIFE HOT TAKES!!!!!!!!!!

I have so many but here are my main ones:

-Season 5 while the shortest season is still an amazing season and doesn’t deserve the hate it gets!!!

-Giselle Eisenberg did a phenomenal job of being Anna-Kat during season 5 and doesn’t deserve any hate for replacing Julia Butters!

-The original second breakfast group is irreplaceable and they made J.T and Tammi way too much like Angela and Doris; there shouldn’t have been a replacement second breakfast group for season 5

-Greg and Katie were both bad parents however Greg was the worse parent

-Oliver should have gone back to Ballet once his ACL was healed also should’ve made an episode where Oliver went to the doctor to see how his ACL healed

-Anna-Kat has the worst character development and Oliver has the best character development

-Greg and Katie should’ve either separated for a bit to see that they were good together or gotten divorced

-The only reason Katie is friends with Doris is because Angela and Doris go together like two peas in a pod and Katie liked Angela as a friend but couldn’t stand the way Doris acted like a Westport wife at first, but then got used to it

-Katie’s favoritism of her kids changed per season (seasons 1&2 Anna-Kat was the favorite, seasons 3&4 Oliver was the favorite, and season 5 Taylor was the favorite)

-Katie should’ve never shown/verbalized her favoritism

-Hans Gruber and Luthor while both cute storylines should’ve never happened because Greg adopted both of them without communicating with Katie first!!!

-Suzanne was the creepiest Westport mom

- British Greg and Viv starting their family should’ve been a bigger storyline

-they should’ve made one more episode for the finale where you could see Baby Otto and see how Greg and Katie handle the newborn stage, and shown all the kid’s weddings/raising their own families and their futures instead of the ending we got

-Anna-Kat should’ve had just a completely different storyline for the season 4 finale “season 4 episode 20: Prom” because Covid ended that season early which means that Julia Butter’s last episode as Anna-Kat was her portraying a bully which while she’s mean ti family members seems to be so sweet to her classmates and Katie’s reaction to Anna-Kat being bullied would’ve been a huge reaction and I feel like Greg would underreact to the bullying situation

It's mother's day, and by complete coincidence (For real, wasn't planned) It's the day pen was put to paper and Dawn was designed and created.

Propaganda Under Cut:

Grace de Pointe de Lac (Mother of twins + Benjamin): When her brother changed she began to be worried of her children's exposure to them fearing what he could do to them. She eventually told him to leave so that her children could be safe.

Doris Walker (Mother of Susan): Doris raised her daughter to be factual and logical, not wanting her to believe in nonsense. But after seeing how happier her daughter was she softened and began to believe as well.

Lew's grandmother was very active in politics. This newspaper clipping was from 23 Oct 1918. Franklin D. Roosevelt was still early in his political career. US women were granted the right to vote in 1920. The election year was in 1921. (On a side note, Lew's mother, Doris Ryer, also participated in the Suffrage movement in 1915)
