what’s the context / reasoning / explanation to why everyone thinks Ash Williams is trans? i’m wanting to agree i just wonder what the reasoning is

im way too tired admittedly to answer this in coherent sentences right now but I dont want to just leave this anon on read cuz it means alot to me so here's an article my mutual @transhorrors wrote which I feel explains the backing & subtext better then I could parrot it in my sleepy state atm

#asks #im going to assume this anon is in good faith like it states #but tbf its just a popular headcanon regardless ur always gonna have trans men wanting to see themselves in their favorite characters #but his name /is/ also ashley joanna williams and something only his immediate family calls him #sam raimi didnt intentionally write it for a transgender audience but its very easy to interpret it that way if youre also trans #not to mention his standing as an antithesis to cliche male protaganists at the time in the first movie
