So, apparently, school drama departments in our jurisdiction are not allowed to have students playing roles contrary to their gender presentation - girls may mot be cast in male roles, boys may not be cast in female roles, what they are allowed and expected to do is genderbend the role/character itself. Which just strikes me as way more "genderfucky" than the centuries old theater tradition of actors playing roles regardless of gender mismatch. Just... short sighted transphobic legislators make me laugh, because it's funny how stupid they are.

Yep. They also can't have a woman play a man, which is a kind of crossdressing even out of the theater that's always been regarded as not that big of a deal, because patriarchy rewards female masculinity to a certain point and punishes male femininity, and resulted in them having to cast a kid who can't sing or act as the male lead, in a MUSICAL, because the only kid who auditioned for the part who can sing or act, is considered a girl in school paperwork.
