Further lies!

I have further proof! Thomas is a hermaphrodite! This is a fact that even I was surprised at learning this fact. A hermaphrodite is defined by Merriam-Webster as "an animal or plant having both male and female reproductive organs." Now as Thomas is neither a plant nor an animal, technically this does not apply, BUT "he" does have a gender assigned to “him.” In that specific world all the engines are male, and the cars are female. Thomas, however, is BOTH a car and an engine. In “his” shows and movies it is an engine actually pulling the cars. However, when it visits railways, it is nothing but a car dressed up to look like an engine. Now you may say that it is a transvestite and not a hermaphrodite, but this simply is not true. It still has a boiler area to contain the smoke it puffs out of its smokestack. “He” lies to children about the most basic of concepts: gender. It’s simply shameful! If it keeps something like this a secret, what else could it be hiding?
