...She does realize that that developer essentially called Samus a 'dickgirl'/'shemale,' right?

Find me some shit website to publish on, and I'll write an article saying how every "female" character in R 60 is a pre-op ftm transsexual.You know, I bet Banana Wu would seethe and rage (at least inwardly) if one of her precious characters were made to be a trans-man, for example.Or if all the main characters of her game were non-white races instead.

THERE IS A CROTCH BULGE ON HOLIDAY'S ARTWORK! HOLIDAY IS TRANS! IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT, YOU HATE PRE-OP TRANSGENDER PEOPLE!

Saddest part of all is you could use that exact same logic on the Revolution 60 Wikipedia article and it would be just as valid as what they want to do to the Samus article.

People on tumblr have already been called out- even by trans people- for claiming Samus is a trans woman based on that old source. Brianna confirmed not only for transphobe, but also late to the transphobia-masquerading-as-progressivism party.

In case anyone is out of the loop, wiki-users comfybro2 and somasq give a pretty good summary:
"Here's the thing, all this transgender talk was started because in an old magazine interview the graphic designer of Samus said a line that translates to "Samus isn't a woman, she's a new-half". This word is sometimes used in Japan to represent transgender people, but if we think about the country context, there is a huge transphobia going on there, there was even more 20 years ago, so it doesn't quite make sense for a developer to give "bad reputation" (not for us of course since we accept trans people, but there) to a character of a new developed game. So, what did he really mean? It is well known by everyone that played the series that she isn't completely human, she was given Chozo DNA in her training when she was young, so it makes more sense for the context of the magazine and the country that the designer was making a joke, refering to her dual state as being not a woman, but both a woman and a Chozo.
I think we should remove the transgender section of the article and ask the developers of the game what's their official answer on this issue— Preceding unsigned comment added by Comfybro2 (talk • contribs) 01:56, 2 September 2015
Newhalf also carries racial overtones, referring to people of mixed Japanese and non-Japanese descent. I imagine the statement was probably referring to that aspect of Samus' character rather than any comment on her gender. Somasq (talk) 02:00, 2 September 2015 (UTC)"

This is even dumber than her "RE4 INVENTED QTE's" sperging. She must be desperate for attention.

At least CWC is pissed about something that actually happened; Wu is pissed that people disagree with her fan theory.

Does this behavior sound familiar?
"This is the lament of a woman who became a national political celebrity by stoking outrage — who rose up alongside the cable-television networks and conservative talk-radio, needling liberals and flattering conservatives with a potent mix of hilarity, bombast, and the occasional dash of racism. This is the lament of a woman who has written an outrageous book, one immaculately designed to piss off half of America, or more. This is the lament of a woman living in a time of outrage, outrage that spreads viruslike on Twitter, television, and Facebook. This is the lament of a woman who has found herself unable to capitalize on that outrage.
This is perhaps the nation’s foremost political performance artist, living in a very strange time."

"We can see, through the hypersexualized clothing in a situation where appropriate battle armor would be better suited, limited emotional emotions given, and the use of fingers (a highly phallic control mechanism) to control the characters (arguably alluding to the desire for all of the characters to have a penis), that the main female characters (Holiday, in particular) in Revolution 60, are all pre-op transsexuals, who are in the process of transitioning from female to male. There has been no direct refutation of this, leading experts on Revolution 60 to conclude that this is the case. We believe that this serves as a compensation for the sex change of the leading developer of the game, as they cannot relate well to characters that are female in both identity and born sexual characteristics."
