If there's one interesting thing about that post it is the idea that Parley could have gender dysphoria or have an encounter with that at some point, though I kinda feel like she's already at the age where that starts to become apparent within the consciousness. However, that's no guarantee. The Wachowskis for instance, didn't come out until rather late.
The rest ranges from overblown to questioning which century we're in. Others have touched it. I won't.

Oi. This is rapidly getting a bit scary, and I don't mean the comic. Y'all need to take a deep breath.
For how this relates to Parley's father's botched prediction, it could mean a load of things, not just that Parley is trans; could mean that they gonna be the best Court Protector to date, and they be in a previously pretty much male only position.
Alas, if she turns out to be trans, the Angel will be more than happy to make her a big bad bio-mech-awesome prehensile dick, fo'sho.
Who the hell knows ('cept Tom of course).

Note the boots with etheric thrusters for soft landings. (Oh! Was that one of the trade secrets?) More Samus parallels. The space jump boots don't do quite the same thing but oh well.

So. Enough to meet Jeanne? I can't wait- it's gonna be the rematch of the century. The centuries old rage-filled hate-ghost vs. the up-and-coming dragonslayer-to-be. I' still working on the title: The rumble in the ravine. The game in the gorge. The clash in the coulee. With the honorable Don King presiding!

However, that's no guarantee. The Wachowskis for instance, didn't come out until rather late. Everything I've read on the subject indicates that the large majority of trans people know that something is wrong, even if they don't know what, much earlier. Sometimes as young as age 4. Usually by puberty. (However, there's a critical difference between "large majority" and "all".) When they recognize what's wrong, and when they come out, are two other subjects entirely.

The trade secret is 1 hour of physical training for every 6 hours binge-watching Dragon Ball Z

Re: the comic: Hooray for Parley, you be your awesome badass self!!! And I love watching her and Smitty's relationship; Tom has done such a lovely job of writing it and I hope he's not setting us up for tragedy down the line, when she inevitably goes back up against Jeanne.
Re: the nutjobs on this thread: Thank god other people have torn your arguments apart because I seriously don't have time for your sexist drivel.

A-and the forum is overrun with tumblr princesses singing duet with "imtotallynotatumblrina"s. Again. See, the worst part about trying to come up with a response is that no matter how I interact with you, you'll just use confirmation bias to assert your already tenuous claim. Somebody made a very flagrant remark that a buff woman = somebody's boyfriend, this was challenged (and perhaps harshly mocked. :I), leading you to categorize an otherwise well-to-do group of individuals as what you'll soon assert are undesirable bigots. And yet calling attention to this is only going to reinforce the idea in your mind. It's really quite perplexing; I guess this post of mine is just a flickering hope that you'll overcome these biases and look at the situation from differing perspectives.
