Scene redraw to visually show why this whole episode makes me uncomfortable. 

Okay so I get this, but I also don’t. A horse with a cardboard unicorn horn vs a transwoman’s wig being taken off seems like a very distant comparison to me…

Normally I would agree, however, the writers themselves said that donny represents a transgendered person.

In addition to shattering old tropes and kick-punching dated ideas, the new “Powerpuff Girls” will also address issues of gender and identity. One upcoming episode in particular touches on ideas of gender identity – a topic open to conversation even in animated shows, thanks to programs such as “Steven Universe,” which explores gender fluidity and rejects established gender norms.

“We did an episode where there’s a unicorn. Basically when it starts out, he’s a pony, but he wants to be a unicorn,” Jennings explained. “He has to go through a transformation to become a unicorn and so it’s a whole [episode that asks], ‘What are you on the inside? What are you on the outside? How do you identify yourself? How do people see you?’ There’s a lot of subtext in that.”

It’s a sit to pee so it’s a little more than cosmetic but not by much.

I got it from here which for the most part specialized in silicon daks until last december.
