Out of curiosity, I went and checked on the TVTropes page of Guilty Gear characters when Bridget was revealed for Strive, and they immediately edited Bridget's page to swap out all male pronouns for female, like someone frantically rushed over to the page to edit it and spare no extra second, and that site is adamant on keeping the pronouns they want instead of what's canon (For example they refer to Yamato in One Piece with male pronouns despite Oda confirming she's female) even the discussion page is having a hilarious shitfit over Bridget's pronouns, and pretty much going "We're going to refer to her as female because we don't want to please transphobes"

Hey, on the topic of One Piece, do you know what's up with that one character the Ts kept saying were a "Trans woman"? Wore a mask, and had long black hair tied up. I think the name started with a Y.

Oh, I think you mean O-Kiku. The situation with that character is that unlike Yamato, her whole gender thing is fully laid out in the manga. When first introduced, she's fully feminine and has no indication that she's trans (kimonos realistically presses the bust down to be less prominent so she doesn't have the usual One Piece bust), and when someone who recognized her from the past remembers as Kikunojo, Chopper asks her "Wait you're a guy?" which she just simply responds "I'm a maiden at heart" but with no anger or anything like people expect from Western shrieking people, and it was just accepted at that and never brought up again, nor does it interfere with her skill as a samurai

With Yamato in one of the supplemental books it fully says Yamato is a she and the daughter of Kaido, and her emulating Oden down to him being male is more akin to a little girl playing pretend and saying she's Batman, and wants to be referred as Batman, which makes sense since Yamato was also shown to be very immature.

So, One Piece already has an established trans character. Heck, it has MULTIPLE trans characters but of course, SJWs are still not satisfied (and never will be) and want to claim characters they’ve taken out of context because “RePrEsEnTaTiOn!”
