Poor Maria. I have nothing but sympathy for anyone who thinks they have to feel like this. Having tried to deny my own transsexuality for a majority of my life, I can say that in my experience, hiding something like this NEVER gets easier, emotionally-speaking. Even Rudy feels bad. He wants his sister to accept herself and be happy (although he may have an unconventionally mischievous way of showing it).

Also, you may have seen the poster in Maria’s room before (assuming you regularly hang around my DeviantArt page).

Damn this page is good. The best sentence is that "does that mean she made me straight" question. It is both hilariously ridiculous AND painfully tragic at the same time.

And Rudy's answer does two things: nudge Maria towards accepting herself, which he wants, and highliting that her reasoning was transphobic. And there is something so powerfully true there. More often than not, open-minded people have trouble understanding, or even accepting our identities, because of their own stuff they have to grapple with.


(It feels good to be able to compensate after this very harsh, yet very important criticism on page 465, doesn't it? ^_^ )
