Transing any kind of history/character is wrong and should always be called out.

I mean the character was explicitly based on the designer.

If I made a popular piece of media based on my struggles and then got diagnosed with my OCD later, it would be perfectly reasonable for me to say, "Yeah that self insert acts like x y and z because she has OCD".

Riddle me this then...

If the creator is a TW, and TWAW, then wouldn't the original female character be "living the dream" for the creator? Isn't turning the female character into a transgender, in effect, admitting TW are NOT Women (whether or not this move was done for woke points or marketing reasons). Hmmmm?

Seems to me, these "identity uber alles" folx just can't fully commit.

Creator wrote "I was thinking I am normal cis man when was writing her as cis woman".

Isn't turning the female character into a transgender, in effect, admitting TW are NOT Women

But I like your logic.
