Its not that she's transgender, its that her entire personality stems from being Transgender, like she has no defining qualities or traits other than being transgender.(But I still love her anyway) She likes pottery, and is jerkish...So that's three things Alex has to her personality. Pottery relates to her whole 'taking control of her body' thing so that's still transgender-related, and she's jerkish because of how she's been treated in life(homelessness and jerk parents and such) which was all because she's transgender-fluid.

So yeah what the poster said is kind of true, Alex is solely defined by her transgender status.
