Are there any T.V. shows, movies, books, video games, mangas, animes (or anything else like that) that has a transgender/transsexual as the main character (or even as a supporting character?
Manga: No Bra Hourou Musuko Prunus Girl Off the top of my head, though anime might include Happiness! and others im forgetting. Chrono Trigger for 1 crossdressing boss character. Not sure of others atm, I'm trying to exclude crossdressing and random small things T_T
Movies: Breakfast on Pluto (2005) - one of my favourites :icon_bigg these two are sad: Boys Don't Cry (1999) The Crying Game (1992) RENT - if you're into musicals There's also this cute web comic The Princess.
Yeah, Max on the L Word is an FTM! (Friggin' loooove that show) Ahem. Anyway, funny you should ask this, 'cause I was looking around at Indigo not long ago (book store) and stumbled upon this teen novel about a female-bodied male. I don't remember much about it, but it looked pretty good. I desperately tried to find it online just now, and all I managed to find was a new book called "Almost Perfect", which has gotten amazing reviews and won some kind of award. I don't think that's the one I was checking out at the book store, but I'd give it a try! I'll pop back into the book store tomorrow if I can and have a look around for ya, 'cause this is gonna drive me crazy. Hahaha. EDIT: Here's "Almost Perfect" on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Almost-Perfect-Brian-Katcher/dp/0385736649 And here's a cool review of it: http://projectqueer.tumblr.com/post/3055369033/touching-teen-novel-about-transgender-girl-wins-2011
