Unfortunately, I suspect the creators intent is to not normalize transgender in nature, but simple to get a cheap laugh at the expense of traditional gender roles.

Why doesn't the writer of the comic just have him put on a dress and play with a Barbie? Since that's basically what the joke is. Maybe it's just me but this one's fuckin dumb.
