My favorite thing from The Matrix was the concept of “Residual Self Image.” It is the perfect starting point to understanding dysphoria. If I was plugged into The Matrix, I would not at all look the way I actually do. I would look to you the way I see myself in my own mind.
I believe it was Switch that originally supposed to be Trans in the movie. They would be a man in the “Real World” and in the Matrix they would be a woman. But it was 1999 and Warner Bros nixed it.

I believe the creators are also trans
Yes. And I understand that one of the character’s expressed gender is opposite inside and outside the Matrix.
