Lambert was trans?


WTF?

Article states it says in Lambert’s bio shown for a second on screen in Aliens that Lambert “transitioned from male to female at birth and suffered no trauma related to gender alteration." 

WTF? Someone in the production department playing a joke no one would have noticed unless they paused that shot doesn’t make her being trans canon.

So no, the movie didn’t “break ground.” Not in that way, anyway.

Trans-siberian.

Trans-atlanticism is a dope album by Death Cab for Cutie.

So it's technically in the movie, but arguably not intended to be seen. Interesting...

"transitioned from male to female AT BIRTH"

What the actual fuck? Clearly a joke.

reply

Interesting how the film would predict a future where it is normal.

reply

It’s not ‘normal’, it’s sick, and those trying to normalise hacking off healthy organs and sterilising kids are also sick.

It was a random detail that Cameron added in Aliens. In Alien Lambert is a woman.

In fact her femininity is important - she gets raped to death by the alien.

It's scary to people who aren't comfortable with other people.

reply

No, it’s sickening to people who don’t want to see mentally unstable people brainwashed into cutting off their healthy organs, and who also don’t want children to be poisoned and sterilised.

reply

Not normal in any sense of the word.

reply

I don’t like it either but it’s interesting how it was unheard of back in the 1970s/1980s and now society accepts it

reply

“Society” in general doesn’t accept it.

It’s just the Left pushing the concept down our throats constantly through the media they own.

Don’t confuse that with acceptance.

That’s like people saying a woman accepts sexual abuse because she is constantly being raped.
