But the part has always been played by a man, both on stage and on film. It's not like they're taking away a role that was written for a trans woman.. That doesn't mean it couldn't possibly played by one, but it wasn't written for one.

And, as has been said in this thread, it isn't even so clear-cut Hedwig is trans in the traditional sense.

Honestly the whole thing with Hedwig's gender identity is a mess. I wish people wouldn't credit it as 'trans representation'. 'Non-gender conforming represetation', maybe, but labeling it as trans representation is giving it way too much credit.

Multiple women have been cast in the role, and one run had a rotating cast.
