A plot twist is a radical change in the expected direction or outcome of the plot of a novel, film, television series, comic, video game, or other work of narrative

Emphasis mine.

Sixth Sense wouldn't have had a plot twist if Bruce Willis had been a ghost, shrugged it off, and kept on being a therapist.

Calling it a plot twist might be more offensive than demanding a "warning", because you're implying trans* relationships are somehow radically different enough from cis ships to merit a plot twist and things would go radically different from there somehow

Re: ayrt

A noncanonical trans* relationship is "radically different" in the same way as a noncanonical slash pairing where one or more of the characters is canonically exclusively straight. Both change your perception of the characters involved in relationship to the source. But as the anon upthread says, you can't easily identify trans* fic by NAME like you can with ships. It's not transphobic to want to know that story element before you read.

Re: ayrt

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, but it's not a plot twist. It doesn't affect the plot, unless the transness suddenly becomes an issue, which according to OP it didn't in the story.

So either way my point stands.

Re: ayrt

...or, you're demanding a warning so that people who really want to read fic about trans characters can find the fic and read it. Much like warnings for things like polyamory, slash, soulbonds, etc. warnings exist both to steer people who aren't in to that type of fic away from it and to attract people who really want to read that kind of fic, pairing and fandom be damned.
