my year later updates are that i think george would dress like nerdy preppy like very professional 90s womenswear in a really simple way all the time (like pleated high waisted tan slacks plus other colors im just seeing tan so clearly rn and v neck sweaters over collared shirts) and like life journey personality wise she would probably be really into sporty women like shed be super into womens sports and would have had posters of female athletes on her wall from when she was a teenager that remain when she lives with her parents in season 3 and 4 i think when shes unemployed and then when she comes out shed want to go after athletic women / jocks / ballplayers / gymladies / etc. in terms of her hairstyle/baldness maybe it is an alopecia kind of thing but i think she probably would wear wigs before coming out and relaxing. maybe its not alopecia could also be like a trich situation or born with a lot of bald spots so the best way to wear that hair naturally is pretty short

i think jerrys dating habits would be as such... shed meet a lot of women through standup but maybe especially early career would have a lot of experiences of being led on or used by straight women. i gues im trying to humanize her more than the actual show does bc now this character is a woman for this thought exercise so im inclined to believe she would act better than a man or have better reasons for acting that way but thats not necessarily true. like the ways in which canon jerry was not great to women mostly narrowed down to him being shallow and neurotic and noncommittal and a misogynist but women can be all those things too. definitely her neatfreak-ness would get in the way. youre also just... insanely busy as a traveling comic which gets in the way of things

seinfeld characters as lesbians

jerry: actually funny now. went to a state college for a few years but dropped out to pursue comedy full time. 30 at the start of the series, and dresses the same too. comedy is more of a struggle for her too though, because of being a masc gay woman in the industry as it was especially in the early to mid 90s.

george: georges essence as a character is so male its been hard for me to think of how shed be but. 31. has a lot of issues. obviously. i feel like she would really struggle with coming to terms with being gay and perhaps would still be dating men at the start of the series. then for her baldness i feel like the options are she regularly shaves her head but i feel like thats a much bolder choice that the character of greg would not make as a woman or that she has alopecia you know. so maybe her arc involves like accepting her sexuality and then she begins to shave her head regularly after getting fed up with having long hair due to social pressure. anyway she also went to a state college but did end up graduating. at the start of the series before she accepts herself she dresses more typical casual but awkward feminine but as she gets more comfortable with herself her style shifts more to her canon style

kramer: extremely dykey. has been out since she was like, 16. still 6’3” also, 36 at the beginning of the series. she was known for her long curly mullet in her 20s but now has it in the same style canon kramer does. like kramers kavorka and the latvian orthodox nun, women will have often not been truly aware they were attracted to women until they meet her. she never went to college and did various odd jobs and manual labor jobs over the years but during the series is surviving and getting most of her money by selling pot.

elaine: pretty much the same as canon elaine except… dating women. though she went to a womens college somewhere in the northeast and majored in english. 28 at the start of the series. deeply invested in butch/femme culture and identity.
