To my dad, there was nothing funnier than a man dressing up as a woman. He showed me all the classics (Birdcage, Tootsie, Some Like It Hot, Mrs. Doubtfire) and laughed hysterically every time the main character cross dressed. Now every time I think about these movies I get violently ill 🙁

These might be incredible movies that actually advance gender nonconformity and trans ideals. I just can’t look at this genre normally. It’s a trauma response.

Well, that's horrible. The Birdcage and Some Like It Hot are better than you might expect on those points, but obviously they're not worth re traumatizing yourself.

I want to believe Mrs. Doubtfire holds up bc it's Robin Williams, but I've been too scared to watch it since my transition. Sorry for your trauma - sending you good vibes!

Don’t forget MASH.
How disrespectful that was and I am not even part of the community but I’m offended by proxy.
