This shyt is so on time for today’s current environment :mjlol:

Now, it looks like they are trying to say transmen (biologically women) have the Y chromosome and would have died, too. And that transwomen (biologically men with the Y chromosome) would've survived.

I have zero problem with this show having "trans representation." It makes sense in the world and it was apart of the comic book.

But, something that would be an interesting convo about gender identity is gonna be "anti-science" propaganda that only bigots will have the balls to call out, for the most part.

I wonder how they will explain it when even hormone treatment doesn't change your chromosomes.


‘Y: The Last Man’ EPs & Stars Talk Challenging Gender Binary – Deadline

"Gender is diverse and chromosomes are not equal to gender. In the world of the television show every living mammal with a Y chromosome dies – that includes many women, it includes non-binary people, it includes intersex people,” showrunner Eliza Clark explained during the show’s TCA panel on Friday, “We are making a show that affirms that trans women are women, trans men are men, non-binary people are non-binary. That is part of the richness of of the world we get to play with.”

Watched all three episodes and I'm out. :unimpressed: Agent 355 was interesting but I was bored with everything else.

Yeah that premier was tough to get through.
I think the fukked up trying to set up all that shyt through a slow burn type deal.
Should have introduced the virus quicker. And found a different way to intro the characters or tightened up how they introduced them.
I'll give the other 2 eps a shot but so far this seems like an interesting concept that'll be hard to hold my attention
