Here's the thing. Female Chris might have been unhappy, but she would be far, FAR less isolated than duck-wielding Chris is now. When you're a teenage girl, even if you're fat (and teenage Chris was chubby but not morbidly obese), a big chunk of the world still wants to fuck you. She might have had dalliances with older men in high school, or if she was sufficiently protected she would've immediately turned into a megawhore in college. Girls don't need attraction signs.
As negative as this outcome would have been, it would still be better than what Chris experienced. Girl Chris would have many thousands of hours of unpaid social interaction. She would have been able to go out and socialize and meet people who actively put in an effort to spend time with her -- something that male Chris always wanted but never received. Even if she was a tard, she would have had the experiences a lot of normal people take for granted and would have at least been better integrated into society by the virtue of her possessing china.
Girls with autism receive far less diagnoses because they receive far better socialization than boys do and generally cope better because of it -- because girls are automatically treated better in social situations. Female Chris might still have been a train wreck, but she wouldn't have been the 9/11 that Chris became.
Middle-aged autistic female Chris would still have problems, her looks would have faded and men would no longer invite her out to parties, but in her earlier years she'd have learned social skills that male Chris never did. She'd be far, far better at dealing with the world. She might've even landed a husband and turned into a Snorlax, birthing a future Christian.
I think that's the most optimistic scenario. I agree that Crystal here wouldn't need to go on any "love quest" but is pretty damn stupid and would probably fuck up her life anyway. I can easily imagine a 40 year old female Chris Chan, with illegitimate kids living off the dole Bob set up for her, recieving child support, still becoming a tranny and talking about Sonichu and cats. Hell I see a lot of "normal" women like that all over the place on the internet these days from videos.
Here's how I imagine it would play out in accordance to Chris' male life experience just for fun:
- Manchester High has FC being friends with the gal pals outside of school but is still far more engrossed in gaming, tv and Sonichu to do anything other than go out to eat. The other girls have very little in common and generally leave FC to her cave. Sonichu is still created however it's possible Bionic is not (due to the connection to being a water boy being replaced by friend experiences of going to the mall). Bob goes to prom instead of Barb, FC dances with the girls a bit in a less one on one way though. Being uncomfortable with the social experience though still doesn't result in any shell breaking and FC spends most of prom sitting down. FC crying after not getting the art award still occurs and recieves greater sympathy for it.
- The prophecy of literally birthing Crystal still occurs, though the love quest never does meaning Anna is never met and the Hannah story never occurs. Mary Lee Walsh never gets into conflict with FC. Instead FC gets plowed by 1 or more guys, left heartbroken and concepts such as the "Heart Level" are emphasized in the comic, and men become more of a concern than homos. Perhaps FC maintains the JERKs concepts and blames all women for taking the good men. Wes Iseli and Nicole Hammer's roles may be reversed.
- Sonichu right now is a story about a lovelorne FC who can't meet a nice guy. Graduon still exists but MLW's role may be filled by an ex-boyfriend or even her child. A conspiracy grows about keeping FC from finding a true understanding man who will love her for who she is, is rich and doesn't mind raising her child.
- FC still spergs out about losing the Chop Master contest but never ruins her friendship with Megan at least not fully. Megan may be a rival of some sort in the comic once Megan finds success with guys. FC's GameStop days may meet father number 2 or 3.
- Shecameforcwc doesn't occur, though the ED discovery and mockery probably still will. It's possible something on a smaller scale might occur due to Chris' love of drawing porn of his own characters and himself.
- The trolling sagas are a little more miserable because instead of a cabal of trolls becoming joke villains and fake e-girlfriends, it's more likely the trolls will be more mean and critical. FC would be an oddity that weens may mess with but a more tragic one. Some would seethe that FC's a grown woman acting like a child while being a child factory and refusing to change. Others would find her disgusting. So while the sagas wouldn't occur as they did and this period would be entirely unrecognizable, the Criticism would be more harsh than funny.
- Sonichu would become a more personal story. While FC laments the freedom of her high school youth, she'd rail against the men who left her and the comic would include ex-bfs instead of trolls. It would end up being some sort of weird, feminist story about men being drugged to act more feminine or outright enslaved as a power fantasy. It would cease to become funny.
- FC's obsession with both sex and Sonichu would inevitably end, years later, in being involved in the intersectionality crowd and probably become some sort of weird transman. The belief that men have it easy, with no responsibilities and that she'd be "just like Christian Grey" if she were born a man. No Idea Guys to fuck with her state of mind, though she'd probably end up in jail for child abuse instead of rape.
So I guess you could say it's technically better, but I still see a trainwreck and at least it was one that was funny to watch. I don't know if women think fat single mom's who play vidya, cut their hair short and believe they're men while being pissed at other women for taking real men away from them is as funny as what we got with Chris but I doubt it. The type of woman Chris would become if he were born a woman is almost everywhere today. I can't even imagine what it must be like to be a Zoomer guy today and trying to find a normal girlfriend.
What makes this 100 times more disturbing is that the preview PIC is from him dancing. Why Does Chris squeeze his eyes shut when concentrating?
To help him imagine he is anywhere but 14 branchland court probably.
