Is Samus being transgender in any of the games? If not then she's not transgender.

As for Brianna Wu's abrasive manner, sounds like she's starved for attention. Just ignore and move on.

I don't know why anyone would dignify this article with a response. It's the exact opposite of the Poison situation. Poison is transgendered and no one wants to accept it. Samus isn't transgendered and the author is trying to falsely suggest that she is.

This is the Poison from Final Fight/Street Fighter all over again! LOL What's with Japan and tranny characters?


Tranny is not transgender, though. A tranny is a man that dresses like the opposite sex. A trasgender is someone whose sexual identity is different to the one he/she was born with.

I thought out of all the people you would know terminology. Tranny is most commonly meant to address transgenderor transsexual. What you are talking about is a transvestite. While tranny can be used for a transvestite, it rarely isn't because there is a better word already for it.

Trust me, I know which boxes I have to uncheck when searching for porn.

So what is all I can think here. She's a woman now, that's all that matters. And it's a video game character so we could be rattling on about this for months without anyone arriving at an answer

Most importantly though it's a fan theory. I wouldn't take it to heart. You can see some pretty crazy fan theories out there and this one's near the top if you ask me.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Hirofumi Matsuoka is not the creator of Samus he was simply one on the artists in the original game. Makoto Kanoh is the creator of the character. Until Makoto Kanoh say Samus is trans, she is not one. This is just one silly person trying to shoehorn a famous character where it doesn't belong for their own agenda.

What about Gunpei Yokoi?

Samus was protrayed a girl when she was 3. Are you telling me someone would try to change the gender of a toddler? Disgusting, SJWs!

Must be a slow news day.

Also "Cannon" lmao!

See Nintendo, this is what happens when you make a spinoff that is totally different from the original game series :(!

What spin-off?

So, what's your opinion on this?

Meh it's just another crazy article with crazy theories and questionnable proofs.

If Samus was MtF she would not use a suit showing male secondary sex characteristics (namely very large shoulders).

Anyhow it would only matter if she was explicitely MtF, and it was a strong theme in the game with views defended by the creators.

If you can essentially make an established character become transgender simply by asserting it based on very weak evidence, what the hell is the basis of the complaint in the first place.
Go and make every character transgender in your own little cultish community and there's your representation. Always need something to moan about though.
