Stefanie Rivera, who works at the Sylvia Rivera Law Project in NYC, expresses that she did not go through what she went through as a transsexual woman, to have films, like TOTWK, misrepresent and depict "transgender woman characters" as "male drag queens/impersonators/ridiculous caricatures", which provokes misunderstanding and stigma in a society that does not know the difference between a drag queen and an actual trans woman.
