Boys Don't Cry marca 9/10 woke ao tornar a identidade de gênero da protagonista e a violência relacionada o único motor de cada conflito e tema. Pule se quiser uma história desimpedida por mensagens pesadas.
Boys Don't Cry centra toda a sua narrativa na identidade de gênero da protagonista Brandon Teena, um jovem homem trans navegando descoberta, romance e violência brutal no interior de Nebraska.
O enredo segue as tentativas de Brandon de viver como homem, seu relacionamento com Lana Tisdel, a revelação de seu nome de nascimento e anatomia levando à exposição forçada, estupro em grupo e assassinato por conhecidos John Lotter e Tom Nissen. Esses eventos impulsionam todos os principais conflitos, com temas explícitos de violência contra pessoas transgênero, o choque entre normas de gênero e identidade, e interseções de classe social como fundamentais em vez de incidentais.
