It's the stereotype people have of trans women as predators in sheep's clothing?

Ah, I completely missed that. I thought you were implying that existing gender stereotypes would make it easier for one gender to behave in a predatory way, but that's my own history asserting itself in my interpretation.

Again, it is really striking how the Butcher becomes a Hollywood femme fatale like *immediately* upon entering Milly's body

It's that inaccurate idea about how sociopaths are "natural predators" who can instantly adopt any disguise that helps them hurt people I mean again he spent like 50 years as a cis man who apparently didn't go out much or have any friends

It seems like there'd be more of a learning curve before he shows up rocking the high heeled boots and seductively putting boys' fingers in his mouth and whatnot

Admittedly I like the joke that when he stops just vamping and tries to pretend to be Milly for real he's terrible at it Like all of his attempts to play the damsel and scream for help or beg for mercy have this obvious air of withering sarcasm

Which people just don't pick up on because they see it coming from a pretty blonde girl (Just from this trailer Kathryn Newton as real!Milly and as the Butcher is fucking killing it acting-wise)

This is what I thought you were implying. At least twice in my life I believe that lies from girls/women were believed because they appeared to be innocent and without guile, when I knew that to be an act because I knew the truth.

Yeah, true, a big part of the point of the movie is you don't necessarily have to be a great actor when your body does half the acting for you

But that said Within the universe of this movie we're expected to think everyone sees Milly as a gawky unattractive shrinking violet (despite being played by Kathryn Newton) and everyone is stunned by her sudden transformation

Which itself is a silly cliché but gets even sillier when we imagine that this horrible grungy evil dude who lives alone in a shack full of dead animals pulled it off
