Yup. I can vouch that the same's going on with me -- I also have a trans friend who's asking me what console I have Strive on, just because she adores what she's seeing in regards to Bridget, and it's piquing her interest. Definitely down for the positivity it brings~🏳️⚧️ twitter.com/Dredd_Artist/s…
2022-08-10 00:50:45For anyone who wants to talk shit on representation in games and saying it doesn't matter, tell me why a trans friend who doesn't play fighting games dm'd me saying they were genuinely considering learning GGST because of the news about Bridget. This shit matters to people pic.twitter.com/GKwaBveXtk
2022-08-09 06:00:00Bridget being Trans makes me very happy, but I'm sure her being Trans wasn't the intention from the very beginning and that's okay! She's here now and that's all that matters! I feel this is the best outcome for her pic.twitter.com/mZDvgEh5ak
2022-08-10 01:17:58Bridget's evolution into a trans woman and the positive response it's received is proof that large game companies CAN simply drop characters from marginalized groups into their long running franchises with no problems, and I will no longer accept any excuse from other studios.
2022-08-10 01:21:06Playing fighting games makes me want to die but between the non binary character and now Bridget coming out as trans I basically have to play Guilty Gear Strive.

2022-08-10 01:26:20Bridget's narrative is messy and doesnt fit within the 'perfect idea' of a trans person. But I think thats fine. Queer ppl have had to make concessions to try and fight for the respect we all deserve. Born This Way is dumb and outdated idea born from the framing that choosing to
2022-08-10 01:34:50be queer is immoral, but we treat it as gospel. Because we *had to*, and then it just stuck. This leaves a lot of queer people in the lurch whos narrative doesnt fit so neatly into the Expected Queer Experience. I view Bridget's situation in a similar way. And let me be clear:
2022-08-10 01:34:50Bridget is A fictional character. She does not exist. Her journey is fabricated by writers. But that doesn't mean that it doesnt speak to people. My best friend in the whole world feels a very personal connection to Bridget because of her own journey of her own gender identity.
2022-08-10 01:34:51Ultimately, its ok if the way Bridget was handled isnt for you. I have no problem with fellow trans people who dont like it on the basis of how messy it is. But because it doesn't work for you doesnt mean that it doesnt work for everyone, or that it *cant* work or make sense.
2022-08-10 01:34:51Queerness is fucking complex. Many queers themselves dont even fully understand it. Including me. But we have to fight viciously as though we do understand literally every single nuanced element of every kind of queerness, which leads to our narrative being really fucking messy.

2022-08-10 01:40:53I know I'm being extra fixated on Bridget but honestly it feels nice to have some good trans representation in a videogame, despite what many are trying to claim. You don't get to decide what's transphobic for us, cis folks.
2022-08-10 01:44:04To all Guilty Gear "fans" who can't stop crying about a characters identity, and for Guilty Gear fans (or anyone in general) who are done with the transphobes Bridget keeps winning and no one can change that, you go girl, yo-yo the shit out of em' 🫶 #GuiltyGearStrive #Bridget pic.twitter.com/pkZ7NO6t7Q
2022-08-10 01:57:55Bridget's character arc from XX to strive is beautiful because its both a deeply, explicitly trans one, but also a really good allegory for people who experiment with their gender and end up coming back to their assigned birth gender as an active, positive choice
2022-08-10 02:12:03someone who experiments, and finds "eh, this isnt for me" and goes back to their "old" gender as a choice made from their own agency? thats a beautiful thing! thats something worth celebrating. self discovery of all kinds is wonderful and bridgets story celebrates that!
2022-08-10 02:13:32I fucking love Bridget! She’s so much fun and I’m happy she’s trans now, it’s nice to see so many trans people who weren’t interested in guilty gear before wanting to pick it up and play her. Anyways gg is at a reduced price buy it or I’m coming to ur house 🔪
2022-08-10 02:47:12i dont go to guilty gear (been meaning to tho) but i think its so cool that bridget being trans now isn't a retcon or offscreen. its like actual character development! twitter.com/Marcanthony737…
2022-08-10 03:06:13its official! bridget is transgender! you cannot comprehend how hard i screamed its not intentionally vague its loud and clear and of all people to show her that its GOLDLEWIS pic.twitter.com/7kIAOArToH
2022-08-09 01:10:46I love that "gamer bros" can't even get an in on criticizing Bridget coming out as trans without being trounced pic.twitter.com/B8XNrYRXmW
2022-08-10 03:26:21bridget guilty gear is apparently officially trans: cool!!! but ohhhhh my god the discourse I had to scroll through to find the source of that information was hell
2022-08-10 03:49:11Bridget being trans was handled so fucking well in Strive too. She’s not just here and suddenly a girl, she has a well written story mode where she, with the help of Goldlewis and Ky, comes to the realization that it’s okay to be a girl, she doesn’t need to be a boy for anyone
2022-08-10 04:06:59As a non-binary trans woman who can appreciate every scrap of representation we get, this is definitely welcome! The fact that they end up using "she" pronouns is not lost on me. I'm here for Bridget officially being a "her"! twitter.com/Kasekagami/sta…
2022-08-10 04:10:05I don't know anything about guilty gear at all, but the sheer joy of all the folks on my timeline about Bridget being for-real trans is absolutely great... and has caused The Town Inside Me to become the new "I'll loop this song until it wears a hole in my ears" fixation
2022-08-10 04:19:15TRANS PEOPLE WIN I LOVE HER #Bridget #GuiltyGear pic.twitter.com/QxRFShxrgs
2022-08-10 04:22:37O fato da Bridget de Guilty Gear ser trans finalmente ter se tornado algo canon me deixa muito feliz, antes de assumir o nome de Melina, usava Bridget, essa personagem me ajudou muito a me entender e me assumir. To felizona!
