'boys don't cry' is an important movie, and it was very progressive for its time, but it has been two decades, and we can expect more progress now.

+1

We can agree that things could have been done better if the culture of the time had allowed it without erasing how important and progressive for the time something was. This kind of thing always makes me think of purity brigaders rallying against the Rocky Horror Picture Show without any knowledge of its history or importance to drag and queer communities over the years.

And we're having those conversations about both Boys Don't Cry and RHPS. One key factor is that in 2018 we've had a solid decade of cis people doing trans roles as an easy in for awards nominations.

Even drag shows are getting accused of being "trans-face" or "woman-face" by those groups these days, it's insane.
