#Don't worry I AM still an Alex Fierro stan. Just mad at RR

Making a shapeshifting character genderqueer is not bad! But making your only genderqueer character a shapeshifter is a poor choice.

#this is mostly about Alex Fierro b/c this is pretty much a Riordanverse blog but it's also about the MCU's Loki #AND Double Trouble from She-Ra! Who should not be She-Ra's only gnc character considering the show's creator is herself nonbinary! #Alex Fierro #Don't worry I AM still an Alex Fierro stan. Just mad at RR #RR crit #MCGA #Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard #MCATGOA #I feel like I need to elaborate: shapeshifters by their nature call gender to question so it makes sense for them to be genderqueer #BUT if they are the ONLY gnc character #it may indicate a kind of transmedicalism on the author's part #or in the MCU's Loki's case #it can be an attempt to draw in LGBT+ viewers and earn sj brownie points. which is really disingenuous and cruel.
