When I was playing Resident Evil 2 as a kid, I was really invested in Sherry, the kind of annoying, little girl side character that you have to escort around.
The fact that this zombie apocalypse game trojan-horsed a family drama into its plot was fun, and 12 year old me, who always picked the boy character when playing Pokemon, because I felt like I had to, was confronted with a lot of confusing feelings when RE2 made me play as Sherry.

Anyway, I’m Transgender now.
