* ValuesDissonance: While the episode was already edgy for the time, in light of the trans-acceptance movement of the 2010s and following conservative pushback, most of the episode's "joke" have become incredibly uncomfortable, playing right into the stereotype of trans women as gross men who dress up in order to cheat at sports and objectify "real women."
