It's such bs that because conservatives villainize trans women so much and completely ignore the existence of trans men because them just existing destroys their talking points, there are people who just absolutely REFUSE to acknowledge trans men exist and just say you're referring to tomboys.

The only time I've ever seen a trans man be talked about heavily was Elliot Page due to the Odyssey becoming a target of anti woke. However with the main target being a black woman and them arguing over race instead of the existence of trans people. I can almost guarantee if everyone was white. Elliot wouldn't be brought up nearly as much, as he's just getting acknowledged as fuel for the fire.

Sinon isn't the epitome of a Greek soldier. One of his core traits was that he was supposed to look weak and pathetic so the Trojans let down their guard. Also they removed the other black characters from the book so it's not like they're race swapping a bunch of white characters, they pretty much just ended up with the same ratio as the book.
