Like with every troon, the gender shit is part of his mental illness.
It was Surfshack Tito who mentioned Chris couldn't stand up to the responsibilities of manhood, so he decided to chick-en out.
In the year 2025, he will willingly eat the bugs to prevent total climate death in CWCville through the awakening of Groudon before it is forced onto us in 2030.
Out of desparation he always chooses the easiest solution possible, but never does things the proper way, as he's so dumb unique. And soyciety appreciates choosing the easiest way and gives people who do so the brownie points.
A communist social credit system would be great for chris as hes to autistic to understand how to be a decent human being, but if he throws his neighbor under the bus, he gets social proof for being a certified good boy by the government.
The empowered victim that was the position of the LGBTQ community in the early 2010s is a position very familiar to Chris, and autistics love things that feel familiar.
