Whoa, let’s place the hatred where it belongs:
The company charging $300 for dinner and probably stiffing that actor with minimum wage while dealing with these fuckwits.
Peter Pan: Traditionally played by a cis woman.
Tinkerbell: Traditionally played by a light projected from a distance. If I pay good money to meet Tink and she's a corporeal flesh and blood being, someone's getting sued.
Apparently, according to that bigoted asshole who runs that twitter channel (so desperate to be another LoTT), the character was too tall to be a woman.
That, apparently, existing as someone too tall for this snowflake of a father, is enough to demand the character's actor be fired.
it all about policing their ideal of femininity. my daughter (cis) is 6ft 1" she played youth soccer and was 6" taller than everyone else. she had a really good game once and i overheard parent talking about if she was a "real" girl. thats the day i prevented a murder with self control
Sure, that’s his story now. But even he doesn’t know where his reaction came from, because it was all impulse.

Completely LoTT style.
Like full on the family and restaurant interaction does not exist fake.
Apparently? Yes. I am sorry but based on this bigots completely convoluted and selective rules — she can’t be an underpaid Disney villain who is forced to smile around Disney parents.

I would love my wife to be 6’. Think of all of the stuff we would no longer need a ladder to reach.
Lol, THAT'S their reasoning? Hilarious. Especially since, apparently, Disney has height requirements for any actor playing specific characters. I'm sure all of the actors playing this character are roughly the same height.
Yep. Statistically, the vast majority of people identified "almost certainly" are cis women who these scumbags have decided just doesn't look feminine enough.
The implication that the fictional character The Evil Queen (is that her full legal name?) from Cinderella has undergone contemporary gynecological exams and has medical records despite living in a pseudo-medieval world where no one should even know what chromosomes are is incredible.
Also, common medical understanding in medieval Europe held that doing certain activities too much or too vigorously could and would physically turn people from male to female and vice versa. The everyday occurence of physical gender transformation was a commonly held belief
