Though tbf, the series has sad, or at least bittersweet, conclusions for most characters.

I'm still another at the ending of the story in question- Barbie writing Wanda's name on her tombstone is framed as a great act of defiance, but the first time it rains the lipstick will wash away and Wanda isn't the name she'll be interred under

And yeah, that's more real, I guess- not whitewashing the reality of existing as marginalized people in a hateful society- but it still kind of burns that given the ability to write anything that's what he'd choose, I guess.

I would honestly have felt so patronized and condescended to if Gaiman had characterized the Moon as being like "I LOVE trans women actually! come into my embrace, sister!!", like I would slam the book shut and be so pissed

I get that everyone hates us in the real world. What I don't get is why you're so invested in the idea that everything in fiction (an umbrella under which my atheist self puts religion and spirituality) must also hate us. Why is a happy ending for a trans person so offensive?

because it's twee and dishonest, to the degree of being disrespectful? It's a way of expressing that the only parts of being a trans woman that are important to storytelling are the parts of it that didn't form my personality, it's a form of escapism that has zero meaning to me

In my escapism I am not particularly engrossed in imagining a world without transmisogyny, or imagining OUR world without transmisogyny, because such a world would have no place for me in it, a woman who was raised and adapted to survive in conditions of unceasing hatred

You're like one of the vampires or demons in Angel who was pissed off that Jasmine had created a utopia for humans
