Eldritch Cumslut of Cthulhu on Nostr: There are so many characters whose entire persona is the source of comedy, who are ...
There are so many characters whose entire persona is the source of comedy, who are there because their very existence is what's funny.
Men with the characteristics of women.
Them being women-like or identified as such is what makes them gross, ridiculous, laughable. Characters like John Dorian from Scrubs and Lt. Boyle from Brooklyn 99.
The wild thing—the telling thing—is that most of them, perhaps all of them, could be played straight.
If the audience saw the characters as genuine closeted Trans femmes, the entire presentation would be a stark and very painful commentary on how hard it is to survive as a Trans femme. How every natural inclination we have is ridiculed and condemned.
Every time, the writing still works. And the whole series would become a way to show fucking horrible society is to us just for existing.
Cis people: Just sit for a while with that.
