I think it's just a case of "Oh, she's tall and not traditionally feminine, so she must have been born a man!" which is a common thought process of certain parts of the Internet.

It's super sexist.
Like, sure, you can headcanon Makoto as a transwoman, but you're doing it based on her being tall and liking to kick ass. Why not headcanon Minako or Rei as trans? With Rei, it may explain why she doesn't like men much. With Minako, it'll break the dumbass molds.
UUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHH

I have an idea!
Stop treating "trans" (or gay, lesbian, what have you) as a character type, full stop.
These aren't character types any more than having brown hair is a character type. Someone isn't trans or gay or what have you because they don't like a certain thing or because it breaks a mold. They just are.
I mean I get what you're trying to do! But that's the wrong way to go about it unless it actually serves some kind of plot (and then that's limited). Why can't people just be a way because they are?

Sometimes, women are tall.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-07 10:13 am (UTC)(link)As a tall cis woman who's been picked on for not being petite and "feminine" all her life, all the rampant "tall female character = trans" headcanons make me groan in frustration. And of course I can't say anything about it because I'm cis scum.
