    Since when is Gwen Stacey trans? I don’t think it matters or anything but this is literally the first time i ever heard that.

      There’s hints about it in the Spiderverse movies, but I don’t think it’s “canon” like the post says

      There is a debate if Gwen is trans due to some clues in a comics minor miniseries. In the film and major series there is no proof of their gender or sexuality.

        I feel like “canonically” is a weird word for the person in the OP to use here. My view is that there was a pretty strong trans reading of Gwen, but I think that when people say “[character] is [trait]”, it negates discussions due to things becoming a debate about facts rather than a discussion of themes and coding.
