Male to female trans may be visble in media , but not really in a meaningful way on tv which is still king in the voter base that have a majority in this aging country. Unfunnily enough the vast majority of trans people are female to male and they barely have any representation

I mean, highly depends on where you're from. If you take "public media" as "American media and fictional stories by Netflix/Hollywood" then maybe you're right. But it's a pretty different reality if you're from say Ecuador, and media representation is also a matter of proximity.

really?

the vast majority of trans debates in the english media sphere don't even have trans people in the debate about them lol.

Otherwise it's like, some fringe netflix shows and a small part of the indie gaming space are the only places, the chances of being exposed to trans representation in media without specifically searching it out is minimal.

Like, I'm very much in the online media spaces that are most welcoming of trans people and I still see very little unless I would specifically search for LBTQ+ media.

I did a quick google to get a frame of reference, and within video games since 2020, there are 17 trans characters, of which only 4 games would be considered mainstream (Last of Us 2, Cyberpunk, Baldurs Gate 3, Hogwarts Legacy).... That's not many, and I don't think we can really consider many of the games Super Lesbian Animal RPG to really be representative of regular media?

For films it's 23 films since 2020 of which I have heard of only 1 film, the rest are all indie art-house... Again not really representative of what people will see unless they search it out.
