Isn't this what they did with Morph? I don't recall him being gay or "trans" or nonbinary or whatever in the 90s. No one was trans or binary in the 90s.

Morph falls into the forgotten or seldom used characters category for me. I wasn't overly heartbroken when he died (gee look at this X-Men character that was absent from the intro, I wonder what will happen to him) and I'm not going to pretend to be upset he's suddenly nonbinary.

After all are you upset that Morph specifically is nonbinary or that there simply is a nonbinary character on the show? I mean I don't know you well. Maybe you were writing letters every week to Marvel HQ demanding that sweet Morph limited series to be published.

Soooooo what was Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs? Because that dude literally murdered women who he could wear their skin and pretend to be a woman. They referenced him wanting to "transform" multiple times.

Rocky Horror Picture Show? That was the 70's.

Trans people have always existed. We just didn't have social media so that every teen that wants to feel special can post that their flags and hashtags and pat themselves on the back for fake Internet points.
