i think the author knows exactly what she did here yall. you guys are like "hmm the way the characters were talking about the trans girl at the beginning was kinda iffy" when that's... actually the point. you think a different conversation between those guys would've been more realistic? lmao. they're our characters, yes, but clearly they aren't in touch with trans people and their experiences, so among themselves they will speak on them in whichever way is natural to them. they're wrong, yes, but it's kinda naive to think those conversations don't happen CONSTANTLY irl, especially among even men in that kind of environment
