The crazy part is that there are a lot of Trans you would never know they were men until the junk is shone. The ideal that a Trans will still look like a man shows just how much a lot of people here probable never seen one. Yes there are ones that definitely still look masculine but there are also a lot where they do not. Either way, it seems funny that people complain about an actor doing their job.

this is gigi gorgeous 
supposedly one of the most attractive and popular transwomen... and i pretty much have no trouble in telling that this was a dude at some point

Fuck that. Sarina Valentina is the most attractive transwoman/shemale. I'd post a pic, but I'm at work and the Google results would include nudes.
Edit: Found one.

You've never heard of a movie doing poorly because of bad casting? I'm not even talking identity politics. I am talking about movies were certain roles were so poorly casted that it ruined the movie. Jake Lloyd from the Phantom Menace is a prime example of this. Poor kid's life was ruined, and he ticks all the boxes that Anakin Skywalker should have. He's was a white, straight, male child. He was just a terrible actor (yes, even compared to other kids). Hayden Christensen was similarly criticized for the same role in later films of the prequel trilogy.
On the other end, we have movies that have been praised for fantastic casting. For me, that'd be something like The Brady Bunch Movie.
Either way, I don't believe at all that "whoever is best for the job gets the part, END of story". Otherwise, people wouldn't praise or condemn a movie for its casting. And I certainly doubt SJ won the part, because of merit. She was last year's most bankable female star because of the Avengers, but most other roles have led to flops, her acting has been mediocre at best, and a movie about a trans actor would likely have little box office impact from her Avengers success.

Regardless, she was ALREADY cast. Which meant the casting process was over. Time to move on. But no..
Ironically, all this caving into the social justice cultural Authoritarian bullies has done is probably set the movie back to god knows how long, and even if the movie DOES eventually get made and they do find one of the very few trans actors out there that can jump into the part, it likely won't brings in even close to the numbers it would have with Johansson. The movie's probably dead in the water with this move.

Yep. Get woke, go broke.
