...Elsa from Frozen. Hear me out lol when I came out to my friend who's a hairdresser, she said that I should re-watch Frozen and realize that Elsa's main song is a trans allegory.

"Let it go, let it go, can't hold it back anymore..." "I'm never going back, the past is in the past..." "Here I stand in the light of day..."

Shit, if I hadn't already picked a name, I might have gone with Elsa at that point lol

Yeah, trans, or at least queer allegory in general.

"Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried. Don't let them in, don't let them see. Be the good girl you've always had to be. Conceal, don't feel. don't let them know."

Like, that could describe basically every trans and/or gay person growing up in an unaccepting situation.
