Western gamers called the pushback against Catherine: Full Body “manufactured outrage,” but queer Japanese players have long criticized Catherine. It’s good that change is coming to the West, but we must center our activism around Japan’s trans community.
It’s really hard for me to watch that video of the trans woman being misgendered at GameStop. Like... who *hasn’t* wanted to unleash on someone repeatedly misgendering us? Most of the time we stay quiet for our own safety. Anger is a more than justifiable response.
