• It Was His Sled: Anyone who googles Brandon Teena will automatically know how the movie ends.
• Misaimed Fandom: Most reviewers loved it, but while sympathetic to the character, referred to Teena as female and seemed to think it was a story about a lesbian who felt she had to pretend to be a boy because of homophobia or something. One reviewer even said something like "in disguising herself, ironically, this young woman helped other girls find themselves." (Yikes.) In real life, Teena was your average somewhat macho straight guy and had the kind of enlightened opinions on feminism and lesbianism you'd expect from a young man born in the Bible Belt in the early seventies.
• Tear Jerker: The story in general.
• The Woobie: Guess.
