gerard way gender rant in the tags bc this is my blog so i get to talk abt what i want and it's been on my mind for a hot minute
#like... it just feels weird that ppl are taking them wearing a dress to mean that they've come out as transfem?
#please tell me y'all haven't forgotten that clothes don't equal gender right. like a dress is not inherently Female
#it just leaves a weird taste in my mouth. it would be 110% fine if he WAS transfem but it feels weird to just assume
#he has talked abt how he relates to trans women and that he's struggled with gender and that's valid!! im not denying any of that!!
#but they've talked about how they dislike applying labels to himself and i feel like im the only person who finds it weird that ppl are -
#- so quick to jump to the nearest label the moment he wears something more gnc than he usually does
#also like.. its one thing to say that they're probably not cis. which is very true
#but another thing to be so adamant that he's a 100% binary trans woman that it comes off as more intrusive than anything
#they probably aren't cis. they've struggled with gender and use he/they pronouns and use some typically feminine terms to refer to himself
#and it's fine to look up to him when it comes to gender!! i admire the fact that he's so open about it and i find comfort in knowing that -
#- in a way he's kinda like me!! they love their trans fans and don't rlly consider themselves cis but also hasn't said anything about -
#- using the word trans to describe himself. and those things can coexist. there can be a gray area between cis and trans
#idk man. it just feels weird. i dont like how ppl force labels onto someone who has made an effort to avoid labels.
#are they probably queer? absolutely. im not denying that. is it still weird that folks are being oddly invasive about his gender? yeah.
#we're allowed to talk about his relationship with gender/sexuality + how he's always been focused on making a welcome space for queer folks
#but acting as if it's Written Fact to assume he's a binary trans person is just. weird.
#to clarify: this isn't me being mad at anyone in particular. if you're one of the folks who talks abt them being transfem then whatever.
#im too tired rn to have any kind of beef with y'all. in the end we all basically know nothing. the only one who understands his -
#- relationship with gender is gerard themself. im no expert. im just some queer teenager on the internet.
#ive just seen it being passed around and i needed to type this out for myself so i can figure out WHY it was making me uncomfortable
#nobody's obligated to agree with me or to even pay attention to this. im rlly only writing it out for myself and myself only.
#im keeping the reblogs turned off though bc i don't wanna start fights over it
