Rather stupid but it just irked me. Mate was playing Far Cry 6, I was watching, and all of the sudden a NPC transman appears. If it would add anything to the story, fine but this just seemed stupid. Yeah, fighting dictators and shit while popping T and according to the fanwiki "Paolo underwent top surgery without any anesthetic and barely flinched". REALLY? THAT SOUNDS VERY DUMB. It could be it would have a point later in the story but I have doubts and I just don't give a fuck.

I was already kinda bored with the story of Far Cry 6 and after that character I decided to just watch The Orville. Also: it's pride month here and that godawful stupid invasion flag is every fucking where and lots of spicy straights are being incredibly spicy.

To quote the best worst movie of the 2000s and to be extra dramatic: "I'm fed up with this world!" - The Room

I did not hit her. It's not true! It's bullshit, I did not hit her. I did not.

Lol, they literally just adhere to sexist stereotypes. I'm sorry, I know how messed up that kind of messaging is but it's so silly I can't help laughing. Also, your all-caps made me laugh.

I seriously hope women who believe this (I'm sure at least one dev or writer did to write this crap) aren't dating any guys because god knows what kind of bullshit they'd project onto those guys. (I'm hope they're not dating women, either, but most transmen these days are heterosexual women, it seems.)

Ah yeah, that's also a thing. Dudebroking Paolo, with inevitable snapback, is together with a girl. Which of course is fine but in current times, it does feel a bit like gay erasure.

Anyway, apparently some are still angry because it's not good enough representation or whatever.
