    Still not as transphobic as Poison from Final Fight. Originally in Japan, she’s just a woman. But they made her trans in America because people might get mad if they are allowed to beat up a “real” woman.

      Yeah, but us transladies had the last laugh when her being canonically trans in all regions became her big gimmick. Though weirdly enough now she’s “Post-Op in America, Non-Op in Japan”, which is… so stupid I don’t even acknowledge it.

      So it was sexist and transphobic. I’ve seen enough MMA to know that gender has nothing to do with how badly I’d lose a fight in that cage.
