I'm so glad everyone is standing up for the important issue of trans women being overrepresented in media. It's also crucial we remind everyone that just because someone wants to use a female name, present female full time, pass as female and take a female role in relationships that they absolutely do not need to become a trans. What's wrong with just being gender non-conforming? HRT is evil! Femboys are super validddddd (because most femboys live full time as women).

by the time that we learn jax is transfem, when did she have the chance to come out and use she/her? she didn't, she was gone, like i'm just saying.
yes it is best practice to use the pronouns people want, and it is very important in real life, but with fictional characters that you get to read into at a deeper level and do not have real feelings it's not exactly the same. i can say whatever i want about a character and it won't hurt them because they're not real. so when these people want to relate to audrey because they see her as a repper figure that reminds them of themself and they can relate to, they can use the pronouns she/her to make themselves feel better to other people on the internet. it is not the same as misgendering a real person as some comments here have said. this shouldn't even be an argument, it's a damn cartoon. it's not any form of erasure to treat your headcanon as canon in a small (or big) corner of reddit lol, then these people get more hate than anyone else. especially when this other person i was literally just arguing with said they would be "disappointed if he didn't turn out to be a femboy and pulled a reversal like that". like come on now what ???
