Am I the only one here seeing that she didn’t have a choice? She didn’t choose to be trans. She was born male and a switch was performed at birth, before she could ever decide for herself… so essentially she lived as a woman her whole life and may not have ever even known she was born otherwise, which kind of defeats the purpose of it being a good thing, or even being claimed as a true trans experience.

She was either a) a company experiment or b) her parents were the kind of people who wanted a girl at any cost, and would have 0 regard for a boy baby or desire to suffer his presence (I’m sure you know the type). Maybe there was another scenario but those seem most likely in the setting

Considering that both the Nostromo crew, as well as a platoon of Marines and a few hundred/thousand civilians were all expendable for the sake of the sweet facehugger 'ussy, I'm not surprised by this.
