Gen Zed: New Animated Series Features Trans Lead Character

Gen Zed, a new animated series featuring a trans lead actress is facing transphobia from the 4chan community.

They met online as gamers, a Trans girl, a train-wreck, a troublemaker and a trustafarian. They are not Gen-X and they don't want to be Gen-Y, so they decided to move in together and call themselves Gen Zed. They grew up, and now they wondered why they even bothered.

So goes the introduction to a new animated series created by Goodnight Burbank's Hayden Black and it's the first American animated series featuring a transgender actress in a lead role.  Gen Zed -Zed being the British pronunciation of the letter Z, thus Generation Z, – is a funny, quirky show aimed directly at the foreheads of the millennials.

***************************************
The show looks very cool even to a baby boomer such as myself. Too bad it has to be marred by some @#$%^&*() troll. TOS prevent me from saying what I really think of trolls. Best of luck with the show! Can't wait to check it out.
