The first Ace Ventura has a few scenes that would make modern audiences cringe or cry.
Yeah the finale reveal is so incredible transphobic it's hard to rewatch.
The person that isn't trans?
Yeah, technically he isn't trans. He's just pretending to be a woman. But it's hard to read the reactions of everyone else, immediately barfing and so on, on reveal not as anything but transphobic. It's also reinforcing the typical trans cliches. So, yeah. Depicted person is not actually trans. Depiction is still transphobic.
It's hard to watch, but its not because they are transphobic but its implied they all had sexual encounters with their boss and were deceived.
Do you read those comics with adults fucking kids "that are really 1,000 year old demons"?
