I can't post this in a TADC subreddit I'll get crucified
as the title implies, I will be hung. But this is coming from a place of love for TADC and Jax (since my system has a jax alter who we all hate /hj)
Anyways, I love analysing characters, and I can absolutely see how Jax was intended to be a transgender woman (and especially since Goose has confirmed it)
But, I feel like my OWN understanding of Jax never really fit the transgirl idea (which isn't me saying theres no hints. THERES SO MANY!!! but I never felt like it was a term that fit Jax personally)
I'd say canonically Lee[roy] is 100% a transgender woman who struggles to accept it but is aware of it (I mean boymodding cmon) while Jax is a transgender woman in denial who is very confused and defensive about the possibility while dealing with extreme dysphoria.
whereas, in my own internal understanding, I probably wouldn't even separate Lee[roy]/Jax, and I see him as a cisgendered guy, struggling with toxic masculinity imposed by his mother. On the other hand, I see Pomni as a transgender woman who is honest with herself and has transitioned but occasionally has massive spouts of dysphoria. I'm not entirely sure why, but to our Jax alter, this is just 👍👍 true since our Jax alter has a lot of memories with Pomni. Canonically, in Glitchs Show?? No, of course not.
Just wanted to chat a little about it since it makes us a little guilty but it's impossible to sort of change the view on that when you have an alter who is the complete opposite of canon gender wise and views the other members differently from canon as well :'] I'm hoping this sub is understanding of it cause I know other TADC subs will immediately jump to some sort of conclusion about our character from this
