i dont want to be mean but i need people to stop citing grell from pedo bait british anime as representation of a trans woman when from her inception she has been nothing but an extremely homophobic and transmisogynistic caricature and gag character .............. and if in recent years the mangaka has said she's officially a woman then... i guess I'll take it back? but......................... she was not created with the intention of genuinely representing a trans woman and presenting her that way is misleading at best.

#i guess there's nuance here but IDK just casually listing her alongside other more compassionate examples...#like examples wherein the author was genuinely trying to write a trans woman.........#like if trans women identify with her thats great and none of my business im just saying like #even just considering the source material is literally created because the mangaka has a shota fetish... not a great recommendation!!#and if ppl go into the manga or anime assuming they'll see a trans woman they will be disappointed or even get triggered by it. thats it #sorry im like so upset by even the mention of black butler i cant not talk abt it
