My backstory is one page long, I'm looking for a girl named Page, that's it, just any girl named Page.

I agree with most of what you say, but human can absolutely change their sex. What do you think hrt does?

Sex is a collection of biological realities, all of which lands you somewhere on the sex binomial spectrum. Some things are impossible to change (chromosomes and dna), while others are very much possible (ratio of hormones or sexual organs).

I like this chart:

You are assuming we have these items...

It's open source, not really a way to exclude people. You can ban them and not merge their prs, but they can just make a new anonymous account.

3 action economy for me, I also like that the rules are much clearer and more balanced to more play styles.

I would guess that if you had wings with feathers you'd be intimately knowledgeable on the tensile strength of them

Are we assuming Tom Hanks, Barkhad Abdi, or the camera to be trans in this case, or all three?

It wasn't intended to when created, although, their closeted transness probably affected the production.

Here's Lana's comments on the subject:

No, I didn’t [confirm The Matrix is a trans allegory].

Yeah, so that came from an interview I did for Disclosure. They had a bunch of Matrix questions. And the question they asked me was about Switch, who was originally written as a trans character who was male in the real world and female in the matrix. And they took that response and attached the question that everyone now references that it’s a trans allegory. And so it was slightly out of context, but I don’t sit here and put a stink up about it, because it is a trans allegory in that it was written by two closeted trans women. And so all of the things that are in it are super-duper trans. The idea of transformation, even the whole “My name is Neo, Mr. Anderson —” that idea of claiming identity, it’s undeniable.

Yeah, with all the decisions we made with that film, there’s just this burbling transness simmering below everything. So when I look back at the way that we cast those two parts, I can see how obvious it is that they’re one part in a lot of ways; that they’re two sides of the same coin. It’s not like these were conscious decisions, but more like we’re finding our way instinctively as these two closeted trans women. So all those things that your receptors are buzzing about are completely valid. When people say, “Oh, it’s a trans allegory,” it’s like, “Yeah… it is, but we weren’t like, Hey, let’s write a trans allegory.” That’s not how it started. We were like, “Hey, let’s write this action film,” and then we got our trans all over it. [laughs]

Anit-gender? Didn't know gender abolishment was so popular. Based.
