Idk not yucking anyone's yum, seriously its a cartoon hc to your full content and back, but since more that one person in tadc show is lgbt+ people have been really obnoxious about gender and sexual identity to fit their ships. Like I am a multishipper always for every fandom Im in which means even when their is a cannon het ship I definitely also ship wlw and mlm ships with the same characters as well as willing to exploring Trans hc because its part of the fun. I feel like it's always been that way for people that have under representation but like everyone fighting each other on what spefic identity of queer someone is and your a monster if you think anything else is really counter productive to the reality that gender and sexuality is a spectrum and people see themselves in characters and should be able to hc those things. It really makes it feel like the only time people are willing to respect a person's prounons or sexuality is when they have a ship about it they want to comfirm.
Caine is canonically ai. He is agender despite he/him prounons and I don't see anyone ever say that its always a cis or trangender man. Goose said Ragatha has "repressed lesbian vibes" which yes absolutely nean she is a lesbain but it can also mean she has never allowed herself to explore her attraction to women because of how she was raised, I've been quiet literally told the same thing. Jax is Trans and never is able to come out in the circus but even in real life still hasn't come out, so goose said it was left to be ambiguous and any pronouns are vaild as Jax is not out yet. Zooble despite only ever going by and confident in they/them prounons still has personal identity and body issues.
Like Goose has made full people with their sexual and gender identities complex and continuously growing like real people in the lgbt+ community. Leaving most things subtle and ambiguous is so purposeful in allowing a media for open interpretations and people latching onto "crumbs" for locking down whatever they personally hc they find "right" defeats the progressiveness of it. Like Goose has said multiple times no ship is cannon and you can ship anything but people still attack others over it is a lot and I understand why gooseworx has clocked out of it all.
