#'don't misgender him'

[lttleghost]

thank you for everything you do for transfem jesse it means so much to me

it's all my pleasure really!! I love talking about transfem Jesse, there's so much to it as an analysis, and it's nice to have his transness being an active part of his character arc and Breaking Bad’s dealings with gender in general, and it's so like... happy for him as well cause god the idea of "manhood" has been a significant factor in the trauma he's experienced and the times we've seen him at his happiest is with women

here's some additional thoughts/headcanons I haven't posted about I don't think, all MOSTLY specfic to my particular personal headcanon for Jesse but I wanna share:

I think Jesse already having a look thats pretty similar to some other butch lesbians would be a pretty big confidence boost, I think he'd have some insecurity about being no-med no-op along with using he/him pronouns a lot of the time, and especially since the whole "gender is a social construct" thing is new to him he'd have that sort concern on wether or not he's "allowed" to be trans, so knowing about the existence of or even meeting other gnc feminine identifying people would be really helpful, especially other gnc transfem people. I ALSO think knowing that there are even cis women or at least afab fem-aligned people that go on testosterone could also really help solidify that it's okay for him to be trans without medically transitioning, because if there are women who are willing to invest in medical transition to be more like him then he has even more confirmation that it's fine to stay the way he is

oh and then speaking of being butch I do think Jesse still prefers mostly feminine terms which I just mention since at least some butches will use things like "boyfriend" for themselves but I think Jesse would still use "girlfriend" and pretty much all feminine terms, the only masculine term I think he still likes is "gentleman"... I have no explanation as to why I think he's still okay w/ that one that I know how to articulate

I think for at least a pretty long while very feminine clothes like dresses and skirts are something he doesn't typically go out in public wearing, but he does often wear them at home around whoever is lucky enough to end up as his partner (I totally don't picture myself in that role what are you talking about hahahaaaaaaaa)

I believe his lovely long eyelashes give him a lot of gender euphoria, and that mascara becomes the makeup that he most consistently wears since it makes them more visible from different angles

LIKE SERIOUSLY THOUGH LOOK AT THOSE LASHES

I'm really honestly sad this analysis isn't super popular. while people do have a right to project and have Jesse as their own gender goals, for those who aren't projecting the fandoms preference for transmasc Jesse relying much more on looks without delving much deeper into her character and how BrBa deals w/ gender and considering other ways of her being trans is... frustrating. AND MUCH WORSE is things like when those same people who often claim Jesse is "obviously transmasc" b/c of how she looks also do observe her connections w/ women and reason that it's specfically evidence Jesse is afab and transmasc which... yay! (hopefully mostly accidental) bioessentialism! and even ppl who project should still be aware of the unpleasant connotations of interpreting Jesse's connection to women as ONLY evidence that she's transmasc

I don't think most people are being malicious, and I definitely don't think the transmasc Jesse headcanon should dissappear, but there is something to discuss about the difference in attention and treatment transfem vs transmasc Jesse gets (espec b/c if we're being truly honest egg Jesse is really the only trans interpretation of Jesse that could actually be canon, tho that does still technically cover A LOT of possible specfic identities, it just does exclude transmasc)

#asks #breaking bad #this is my girlfriend don't touch him #i could also do without people seeing me use she/her pronouns or feminine terms for Jesse and being like #'don't misgender him' #cause like transfem Jesse being so invisible that some ppl dont notice when its being specfically suggested #and using she/her or feminine terms is assumed to be a joke #not great! #also b/c there ARE some ppl who seem to be specfically against transfem Jesse b/c... #in there eyes being transfem is lesser than being transmasc? or transfem ppl are out to get us? #like theres even ppl who are fine with Jesse being a woman on t but apparently a no-med no-op transfem person #is bad in their eyes #again i dont think most people are like that but i think the fandom could and should do more for transfem Jesse

Sorry for bringing this up again but the person who wrote a callout post about you sent an ask to the aita tumblr blog about it. Losing my mind

LMAOOOOO OH MY GOD well I truly live rent-free in some people's minds it seems. Thrilled to see how that turns out btw I wonder how you can spin "someone on Tumblr who does not owe me the time of day refused to debate me about transandrophobia discourse, so I misgendered him and called him a transphobe, a chaser, and a danger to the transmasculine community at large" to make it sound like you Aren't the asshole. Well I spent today hanging out with my family and completely forgetting that this even happened so I think that should tell you which one of us I think has "won"

#i've already apologized for publishing the ask with the person's username and i deleted it i recognize that as trashy #but like. yknow i would Maybe say that that doesn't require any of the shit he's been saying about me lol #i mean whatever *i* don't care. I'M not mad. if he tries to paint my partners telling him off for misgendering me as like Harassment #or whatever well you heard it from me that it was my partners telling him off for misgendering me #ask #anon

I think we gotta start recognizing that "things accepted online/in leftist spaces" and "things accepted by the general public in the real world" are two very different things. like no actually gnc men are Not suddenly seen as okay because there are drag queens on tiktok. men are still beaten and harassed and ostracized and Killed for being feminine. in the us. in my very liberal city full of ppl with blue hair and pronouns I am made to feel uncomfortable and unwelcome for being a gnc guy. the tiktok comments on videos of men wearing make up are not indicative of the beliefs of most people

#idk its just very weird to see ppl imply that gnc men are accepted actually #like what world are you living in that thats true #strangers make weird comments to me all the time and I see a noticable difference between how I am treated and how gc ppl are treated #I am misgendered on purpose All The Time by randos #like absolutely point out that gnc women are treated worse/have not been accepted in spaces where gnc men have/etc #but you cannot be saying that being a feminine man is now seen as okay that is so wildly untrue in like the real actual world #this goes for a lot of other things as well #like when a woman is a creep and ppl are like 'well if the roles were reversed yall would say its bad' #and its like yeah maybe online or in your liberal friend group #ppl who call men out for things don't call out women for the same stuff #and that should be discussed #but for most of the public no one is calling out men for creepy behavior #like notoriously #also even online ppl are very hateful??? like all the time #the top 5 comments on a video of a man wearing a dress may be telling him that he hashtag slays #put I promise you for every compliment there are dozens of people calling him slurs #anyway please please please touch some grass engage in social issues outside of instagram I'm begging #ghost posts #text

the other day i had my hair down and was wearing eyeliner and a station guard unhesitatingly called me "sir" and continued to refer to me as "a young man/young guy" while on the walkie-talkie with her colleague. today i was in a coffee shop wearing my binder, no makeup and masc clothes, with my hair hidden under a beanie, and just as unhesitatingly got called "madam" by the barista. i'd love to know the psychology behind what causes people to gender me a certain way - it seems very inconsistent lmao

#the barista guy was especially odd because he kept calling me 'madam' even after i gently corrected him #it was like he didn't hear me or didn't register #i don't THINK he was deliberately trying to misgender me because he seemed pretty nice otherwise? #be shh now #that's not even getting into the time i was mistaken for a trans /woman/ by a well-meaning but very confused sales assistant #i guess folks just look at me and go 'hm... there be gender afoot' and shoot their best shot

also my most useless coworker got into light trouble today because she didn't listen to me. felt good <3

#see i TOLD HER that she should take her till and relieve a specific person so she could go on break #like not just close her register i told her to specifically take over that register because the girl was in a double with our new guy #who i don't want to be alone yet. and what does she do? she closes her register and opens a new one #so i was like 'umm that's not what i said. the new guy can't be alone yet' and she proceeds to misgender him and then says she doesn't want #to be in that register because it's too cramped in there. our supervisor notices this some time later and i tell her what i WANTED to happen #and what actually DID happen. aka that my Most Useless Coworker just decided to go rogue and ignore me even when i told her TWICE MORE #that this person is new and needs to have someone with them #and then she had the GALL to try and tell our supervisor when she brought it up a second time later that she didn't know he was new #when i told her no less than three times in that conversation alone. and also what do you mean you can't tell when someone is new #do you remember having worked with them for the past few months??? no??? then they're probably new! #anyway she got scolded and told to listen to me 💕💕💕💕 #rayrambles

I'm gonna continue with the requests later, but I also felt the need to doodle my two PVs with a little bit of gender on the side

They're both still very much genderless, but because not every non-binary/agender person will have the same perception/feelings regarding their gender and won't have the same gender presentation, I decided to mess around with it a little

Hallow is genderfluidv(though after some consideration I realised agenderflux describes them more accurately, but oh well, these labels don't even exist in their story so who cares), they're non-binary but their alignment fluctuates between fem-leaning, masc-leaning, something in-between and neither. They're fine with any terms and pronouns but mostly go by they/them.

Luna is genderfae/transfem, their gender fluctuates between agender and fem-aligned non-binary. They mostly go by they/them and gender-neutral and feminine terms, they're fine with she/her and some neopronouns, but any masculine terms and pronouns are a big no-no for them. Currently, I'm considering making them an enby lesbian, but that might change in the future.

#spooky arts #hollow king au #I swear this is the longest I've ever spent considering what labels would describe a character. I myself have a weird relationship with #labels so I only ever think about what people would a character be into and how their gebder 'feels' like and never go into details #I spent like an hour looking for a term that could describe how I imagined Luna's gender LMAO #Hallow is mostly me projecting. Luna is 75% me wanting to explore a situation where the pure vessel comes out as trans after they're found #out that they're not hollow. And 25% spite for all the people who call them he/him #So you know how some enby lesbians describe their gender as like. The only connection to womanhood they feel is their attraction to women? #That's kind of the vibe I get from Luna. They're enby just very sliiightly titled towards womanhood #They're also a teen and in a scenario where all the different AU hollows interact they'd bond a lot with Hallow as the only other person #who went through the same confusing gender feelings as they are going through right now. #They're kind of like 'man I wish I was a girl sometimes so I could be called princess and wear dresses' 'you know you can just do that #right?' 'I CAN?' #Also even though they're fine with different pronouns I'm still just gonna be using they/them on my blog for them. Bc I know some people #are weird about Hollow's gender and refuse to acknowledge theyre enby or keep misgendering them 🙄 I don't wanna add to that #We give a little bit of gender fuckery to the vessels though. They deserve it. #But yeah I still wanna be clear. Their genders fluctuate in alignment but they're still very much agender/genderless. Please don't treat #them like binary people 😭

Does anyone else see red when a dude (usually cishet) says "oh I won't fight girls" as if it's some moral high horse when it's really just misogyny and the implication that anyone with an estrogen based endocrine system is inherently weaker... like if you wanna say "i won't fight someone unless it's fair" that's a perfectly good moral to have, but don't fucking bring biological essentialism into it.

#not surprisingly this same friend who said this is also the one who misgenders me the most #like he tries but holy shit #holy. shit. #we were joking about which friend would beat who in a fight and i was like “yeah (this person) would totally beat me” #and he was like “i mean in theory but i don't hit women... i mean i don't hit anyone born female” #making your misogyny and biological essentialism inclusive of identity DOESNT MAKE IT ANY BETTER #i am seeing red #we sorta fought abt it this morning and he texted me now pissed that i “challenged that moral” like geez #im not challenging the moral of not fighting someone if they cant fight back #im challenging the fact that youre bringing biological essentialism into it #the punchline of this all is that he HAS TWO MOMS #they did NOT raise him like this #he's so sweet and sensitive and nice about everything else but jfc

Question, why do you dislike the haki detransition theory for Crocodile? I think it would be interesting to see how he worked around not using haki and what kind of techniques he cooked up that way. Or maybe he only has to avoid using a certain type of haki?

It's less about the theory itself and more the potential story scenarios the theory could lead to that I dislike

Because if it was revealed in the story that Crocodile could use Haki but has actively been choosing not to because it would detransition him, then it could very likely lead to a scenario where Crocodile is forced to use Haki for some reason or another, thus he'd end up detransitioned. And I personally don't want to see that. I don't want to see Crocodile detransitioned against his will, nor put into a situation where he has to sacrifice his own comfort for any reason.

Like I don't know how to really explain it... For me it'd just rub me the wrong way the same way when ablebodied people celebrate it when disabled people in wheelchairs force themselves up to walk (say, to walk down the aisle) as if putting themselves into excruciating pain for a moment to appear """normal""" was a good thing Like obviously these are not the same thing and not actually comparable, I just can't think of anything else to compare it to explain why I don't want to see Croc detransitioned.

'Cause I can imagine, if Crocodile was forced to use Haki to, say, protect Luffy or some shit, there would be so many cishets who would celebrate it and treat it like it was a good thing. There'd be so many people saying shit like "Crocomom reveals her true form to heroicly save Luffy" or some shit (just going 1000% on the misgendering), and people would treat that kind of scene "a beautiful moment" instead of something that would (/should) be painful, humiliating and deeply uncomfortable for Crocodile. And I would fucking hate that. I would hate all of that so much. Not to mention, a scene like that could easily end up becoming the most memorable Crocodile moment in the series, and I don't want the trans man to end up being remembered as a woman. Not to mention Crocodile would then be STUCK detransitioned. Like the only way to retransition would be if he got another HRT shot from Ivankov, and between Iva-chan being on the other side of the Red Line (aka not accessible as of now), and them having zero obligation to help Sir Mass Murdering War Criminal retransition. Yeah. I don't want to watch him get humiliated and mocked for being trans. And the likelyhood he could be is absolutely mortifying.

And I know. Yes, even if the theory was true, it doesn't mean Crocodile would have to end up detransitioned in the story, it could just be there to explain why he can't use Haki and be left at that. I will argue that if you were going to make a plot point out of it, then it would be pointless if there weren't concequences for it. Like, it should lead to something. That's Writing 101. And the only other option then would be Crocodile refusing to use Haki for something and dying. Or him allowing someone else to end up hurt and/or die because he wouldn't be willing to sacrifice his comfort for their sake. Needless to say, both moves would end up being demonized to hell and back. The former for "being stupid and weak", the latter for being "selfish and evil". There would be no winning here. So in other words; Crocodile staying transitioned would end up as a selfish/evil action that would be looked down upon, while if he stopped being trans, that would be seen as a good thing to be celebrated. Need I explain why this would be fucked up.

So again, it's less the theory itself. It's where the theory could lead to (the Turbo Transphobia) that I dislike.

And the best way to avoid those horrible scenarios would be if the theory that allows them wasn't actually canon. If Crocodile can't be detransitioned permanently (without Iva-chan), then there's nothing to worry about.

#Moon posting #OP Meta #Sir Crocodile #CW Discussions of transphobia #CW Misgendering #Not a particularly long post. Figured the subject matter could be upsetting enough for people to read so. Read More be upon ye #Also yes. Technically if Crocodile did sacrifice his gender affirmation to save someone else- that would be a ''heroic sacrifice'' #T e c h n i c a l l y #But ***I don't want him to have to sacrifice that*** #For the record yes Doc Q could use his Becoming A Woman Disease on Crocodile etc #That shit just wouldn't be *permanent*. Anybody could use Haki and that would be resolved #Then there's other shit like powerscaling and how some DF abilities are supposed to be non-reversible even with Haki #So it'd make no sense to me if Iva-chan's HRT was reversible with Haki #But I've posted about those things before

Can't decide if Toei is fucking cowards for giving Yamato a fem VA or if there's actually something to it for trans rep :/

#like i love the idea of Yamato being a pre-transition trans guy #cause i wanna see more pre-transition trans guys #even being a he/him woman is cool #but also transphobes don't need more excuses to misgender him :/ #one piece #yamato #they already have enough problems with kiku and she has a VA that matches her gender
