A theater in my home city cast a transwoman in a woman’s role for an upcoming production of a pretty popular play. (Sorry. I’m being vague on the details to obfuscate which city.) The guy doesn’t pass. I’ve been hearing whispers from people as more promotional material comes out because everyone is forced to quietly acknowledge a dude is playing a beloved female character. A lot of people won’t say the obvious out loud, but it’s abundantly clear they’re not on board. And this is just looking at the guy on the poster. They haven’t even watched him in stage yet. (It’s going to be a shitshow when the curtain rises, I imagine.)

So, yeah. Please let this be a mainstream film. Let the peaking soar. Because most people aren’t going to look at this creep and be able to pretend he’s a lesbian woman.
