It may be worth mentioning that the character's VA is also trans. Based on the parenthetical part, I would guess that the part about the VA's age was supposed to highlight that she is of a similar age to her character as part of a broader point about Actor-Shared Background, but the way it's phrased just comes off as a non sequitur. Even taking Actor-Shared Background into account, I hardly see how it's relevant to Author's Saving Throw — it's not like casting adult VAs as children or teens is something that gets criticized.
Edited by TwiddlerAlright, I re-added the original entry. I did tweak the wording a bit to concede that the transphobia was probably unintentional, and add that the voice actress is trans. The "legal yet teenage" part was just really clumsy writing and it distracted from the point of the entry.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Last month, concernedalien11780 did some cleanup on YMMV.Big Mouth. Some of this was admittedly helpful, deleting natter or ZCE, but there was an entry from Author's Saving Throw that I had initially added and I don't know why it was deleted:
Note that I didn't add that bit about her actress - I think it's kind of weird to highlight her as "legal yet teenage." That came from lifelover91, who also seemed to have some grammar and ZCE issues on top of gushy writing ("Natalie and Gina are the characters we love (and totally deserve)."
) Not sure if they warrant a separate query. Anyway, to make things clearer, the entry as I originally wrote it was:
I think this is a valid entry because the creators have discussed wanting to better represent certain positions, they apologized for the Unfortunate Implications in their depiction of pansexuality, so when adding more representation to the show, they made sure to include voices of the community when writing the episode (as a trans woman is on the writing team now), as they were criticized for presumably not consulting pansexual people when writing "Rankings." In short: they were criticized for transphobic implications in their LGBT rep, so they took measures to avoid transphobic implications in future episodes.
I mentioned this on the discussion page
but have yet to hear any feedback. I'd like to re-add it, but I want to avoid an Edit War.
