The belief that gender is a feeling, something interior and unrelated to sex is not only false, but it also upholds gender stereotypes. What does a transgender person mean, when they say they identify as the opposite gender? I've actually posed the question to a lot of trans people, and the answers were always something along the lines of "I liked things made for boys as a kid. I felt different from other girls. I don't feel connected to my biological gender because I behave differently" (coming from women who identify as trans) or "I preferred girls toys as a kid, I was always drawn toward dressing more femininely, wearing make-up, etc." (from men who identify as trans). I then ask, why does that mean you are a different gender? I thought we were all on the same page with the whole "boys can like pink, girls can like blue" argument. I mean, everyone has been saying that for decades, and we all agree that those are gender stereotypes, right??

So I always asked myself why transgender people used those as arguments to prove their point. The other argument, that a lot of trans people might bring up after reading this, is "Well, sex dysphoria is a thing though". And yeah, it is a disgnosable mental disorder, and there are people who seriously suffer from it. But so is anorexia. Do we see doctors performing liposuctions on people suffering from anorexia, though? Of course not: mutilating the body of a mentally unwell person is inhumane. People who suffer from eating disorders are offered therapy in order to recover and create a healthy relationship with their body. So why would dysphoric people get "gender affirming surgery" (which is an interesting name, because I thought y'all said gender isn't dependent on sex???) instead of analyzing the reasons why their body brings them distress? The whole narrative of "being born in the wrong body" is so...vague. And, *trust me*, I've tried to put myself in transgender people's shoes and comprehend their arguments, but they are just insubstantial. I see why for some of them (especially women) identifying as the opposite gender would be favorable: for women, because it's an attempt to escape their fate in a misogynistic world. It's freeing (I speak from personal experience here, I identified as non-binary for a while). It feels like saying fuck you to the patriarchy. You feel the rush of eluding womanhood (or at least you think you do). But, at the end of the day, it's truly just that: eluding. And (unless you medically transition, to the point you pass as male) it's not going to change anything. People hate us because of our sex, not because of our "gender identity". Men won't care whether you identify as ftm, non-binary, agender or anything else. They hate you because you are Female. That's what misogyny is at its core. And, if you push the idea that gender is just a feeling, something that you can identify as, and that biological sex doesn't matter, and that "anyone can be a woman, actually!" you are inevitably going to water down the definition of Woman until it is just that: a sensation, something intangibile. How can we fight for a category of people, if we can't even define who we're fighting for? Also, Women are the only class this applies to. Take Race as an example: the movement of resistance against racism knows exactly who they are fighting for. The definition of a Black person is not up for debate. People who identify as "transracial" (mostly trolls) are heavily criticized, and they are obviously not included in the Black movement. Why do we have to accommodate males in our movement? Use whatever pronouns you want, get all the surgeries you want, take whatever hormones: it's not going to do anything to defy misogyny. @kieransskin

Welcome to my humble domain!! 🫧✨

Hi, I'm Marble, a lesbian in her early 20s from Poland. Just vibing here on Tumblr from time to time. If you want to look into my post/reblogs read my takes on #talk tag.

You can ask me anything you want. I won't shy away, but remember that I'm not your therapist and all my opinions are biased forward women!

More information about me under the cut! 💕

If the part has * in front of it that means I changed something in the text and/or my views are different than before.

*I'm still quite new to radical feminism and I'm trying my best to learn how to take action. In short, I fight for women's rights and freedom from sex-based oppression. Right now I'm looking into creating a small radfem activism group in my area. If you're from Poland and feel comfortable, dm me!

I detransitioned in the middle of 2023. I used to be a non-binary/agender and asexual individual for around 3 to 4 years, but I understood all of that was because of internalized misogyny and homophobia and I actually wanted to have sex and did like me being a woman before I entered the trans community.

I'm an ex-Christian, now I probably would call myself a spiritual person, researching my Slavic roots at the moment.

I believe in critical thinking and triple-checking facts. Everyone can have their opinions, but actions should have a base in grounded reality and unbiased scientific research. Read those books ladies!

I'm mostly talking about my experience as an ex-TRA, a lesbian, a woman, someone who lives in a misogynistic/conservative family and a country that has yet to legalize same-sex marriage, but you can safely transition here even as a minor.

*I'm a trans identified men hater, a terf if you will. I don't care. Fuck all men, I don't care anymore. Gender dysphoria or perversion (autogynephilia) should have never been "solved" with a surgery and/or irreversible "gender affirming" treatment. No other mental illness has permanent body modification as its treatment, same should be for gender dysphoria. The trans movement (men's rights movement in disguise) is the most harmful thing right now and I'm so tired of seeing more people being pushed into it just because they are themselves and aren't scared to dress unconventionally! I'm fuming with rage.

I make mistakes! I'm just a human being and, naturally, I will be in the wrong sometimes. May it be because of the language barrier or me just not thinking things through, doesn't matter. I will try to acknowledge my mistakes and say sorry. I'm still learning and there isn't a better way than through your own downfalls!

I don't block people, unless they're insufferable. We can have different opinions, different lifestyles, different views, but if you're annoying I draw the line there.

I also draw sometimes (I don't have much time for it right now, bc I'm in the middle of my academic years), you can find my work under #my art.

Nothing here is set in stone. As I grow as a person my views will probably change. If you have any questions, just ask them! I'm happy to answer all of them ❤️

Hi there! I hope you're doing alright.

A few days ago I was doing some Poking About on the internet and I stumbled upon a blog post titled "I Hate 'A is not for Ally'". It was written by a fellow asexual person, so intrigued, I went to read it. Reading that post lead to reading a few other posts, all about the history of the A in the LGBTQIA acronym. These posts were made by queer people who were born sometime between the 80's and 90's; they said that back before the internet helped a-spec activists fight for aroace/agender visibility, most people understood the A to stand for Ally, as a way for closeted people to have plausible deniability when they attended queer events without having to announce to everyone that they were "queer" or "questioning".

I couldn't find a lot of information about this online so I made a poll hoping to see if any of the Tumblr ""Olds"" TM (aka: queer people over the age of 25-30) on here would be willing to volunteer their input. Would it be alright if I asked you to boost the poll? (it's the pinned post on my page).

If you'd rather stick to answering with your own experience or tossing my question to your followers, that's all good too.

Hope you have a wonderful day!

I've written a fair bit about this - it was Ally then for the reasons that you state.

I've seen a lot of people say "well, that's what it meant then but whatever it has to change." And I wonder how fucking heartless they have to be to insist that it's more important to pull the fig leaf that people still use to protect themselves away from them than it is to just hush and leave that there for those that need it. It doesn't hurt you to continue to include others the way you fought to be included.

Usually, I'm a lot more relaxed about that kind of thing and say things more patiently and gently, but I've rather run out of patience for a lot of this penny-ante intracommunity shit. We are at the Hirschfeld book-burning stage of trans genocide ramping up. Oklahoma just passed a bill through its House of Representatives that would make HRT, GCS and all other gender affirming care illegal for adults and impossible to cover via any OK health insurance, regardless of where performed. Montana just passed a bill out of committee that would make it impossible to change the sex marker on your driver's license or birth certificate, ever. Iowa Republicans want to add a trigger clause to the state constitution to outlaw gay marriage, because they are coming for Obergefell. I'm pretty sure I can never move home, because I can't count on PA being safe for my family.

I don't actually fucking care anymore what random people on the internet think "A" stands for in the acronym. "What the acronym is" is a problem from 2015, not now. If generic-you think it can never stand for Ally and must only ever stand for Ace/Aro/Agender, and fuck those people who are still in the closet, fine.

You're an asshole, but I'm not arguing with you anymore. I've got real fucking problems to worry about, and so do you. Next question.

#I'm not upset with the asker here #just totally out of patience #with the people who keep making this conversation necessary

I just saw your post about how testosterone has helped your disability tremendously, which if I remember correctly is hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (but maybe I’m wrong). I’m agender and have been considering early menopause to help with my abundance of menstrual health issues, but if t helped your hEDS too that makes me really want to consider it further. If this is too private you absolutely don’t have to answer it but I’d love to know more as a fellow disabled person.

It's POTS actually :) though POTS is highly comorbid with hEDS and I *am* hypermobile, to a degree that I made my physical therapist wince with how easily I can assume positions that should noooooot be possible without pain when I was in recovery due to my car accident. She actually asked me if I have EDS and I said well I have POTS so... not officially but is it possible sure I guess.

So no, I do not have hEDS. But also yes I might have hEDS. Schroedinger's diagnosis.

No, testosterone helped my POTS symptoms disappear to almost nothing. This is at least partially because POTS does not get along with estrogen ans menstrual cycles, and taking testosterone lowered the estrogen in my body and also stopped my menstural cycle. Don't get me wrong, I still have some symptoms, but they are dramatically improved. I can do all sorts of things I used to not be able to.

There is... a bit of debate whether I have POTS at all. But I do have MCAS and, as said, I'm hypermobile, so very likely yes POTS is very likely. But with my NCAH diagnosis, it's equally possible that I *do not* have POTS, because NCAH also causes weird changes to your vasovagal response and your autonomic nervous system. In other words, do I have POTS AND NCAH... or do I just have NCAH?

Personally I don't really care because adding testosterone fixed the symptoms way better than anything the POTS meds were doing so w/e, if it works it works.

It's "makes you intersex and sometimes gay disease but also you faint a lot and your body *really* sucks at handling stress disease". To be fair the classic form of CAH can just outright kill you if not well controlled. Nonclassic CAH by comparison sometimes still tries really hard but is less likely to do more than give you some serious medical trauma.

So like. Am I fainting because my body doesn't know how to handle stress which triggers a response of my autonomic nerve and because my adrenal glands are too busy making androgens to give me some fucking cortisol to communicate with my autonomic nerve, the thing guesses wrong and I hit the ground as my body attempts the biology version of "have you turned it off and then back on again"? Or am I the unluckiest fucker on the planet and I have two annoyingly underdiagnosed but much more common than we thought disorders which both hate estrogen and make me faint a lot?

Or, bonus, since POTS joins PCOS in the "disorder named for a symptom that's not even diagnostuc criteria and no one actually knows what causes it" family, is what we're calling "POTS" actually a group of symptoms that has a wide range of causes and my cause for my own symptoms IS NCAH? Who knows 🤷‍♂️

#this is especially annoying because like #long covid is more or less just pots #ok ok ok it's kinda different but also it's kinda not #pots itself is often triggered by viral infection and brain trauma too #you got sick out of no where one day and now you're disabled for life because you faint without warning all the time #congrats! human bodies suck! #and since my body sucks at stress response guess who was always always always sick as a kid #I got pneumonia one day without being sick from anything else first #and a few weeks after that I started fainting

Avengers Gender & Sexuality Headcanons, but cleaned up a bit

hello hello! I revisited my old post, and it was messy af and I don't really headcanon a lot of these anymore. SO I PRESENT TO YOU:

The Avengers Being Gay As Fuck

STEEB ROGER ROGER || CAPTAIN AMERICA - ohhhhh boy... - bro is kinda not up to speed with how ✨🏳‍🌈 the gays 🏳‍🌈✨ are treated nowadays - so peter decides to teach him - and at first, he's kinda confused, esp about trans people - because hello, he was born in the fourties - it's kinda non-realistic to expect him to snap to reality just like that - anyhoo, peter ain't having the "how tf do trans people work" bullshit - he, like any good gen z kid would do, creates a shitty powerpoint presentation - after two full fucking hours of explanation, steve starts to get it - he still slips up sometimes... - but he tries his fucking best and honestly that's all we can ask of him - i don't really see steve labeling himself, but if you asked, he'd probably just steer the conversation away from that topic - would still use he/him - fuck that was long

TONY STARK || TIN CAN IRON MAN - bro has fucked and been fucked, taken and given head - by both men and women - cmon. there's no way that this billionaire playboy isn't fruity - pansexual, doesn't care about the gender of the person he loves - he's either in a poly relationship with pepper and rhodey or enemies-to-lovers with a certain stephen strange - he/him - funds the annual manhattan pride - qpr with rhodey

BRUCE BANNER || JOLLY GREEN GIANT - oh poor child - i feel like he is not one for sex - like bro practically radiates aroace energy - doesn't really feel the need for gender conformity. gender is an unknown subject and he doesn't like to meddle with it. end of story - pretty sure he's agender - i feel like he wouldn't care what pronouns are used, but if asked, i think he would answer he/they - bro is a triple a battery fr - prefers to be adressed as dr. banner or just banner

NATASHA ROMANOFF || SCARY ASSASSIN LADY - she/her. nuff said. - asexual. i will die on this hill - the red room taught her to use her body to get what she wants - but she never really wanted that - coughseggscough - i wanna say she's demiromantic & bi - clint is her biggest supporter - started the ace avengers club 🍇🐘👻🐈‍⬛

CLINT BARTON || LEGOLAS - i really can't see a queer clint. i can't - i also don't really see him being that one overinvested ally - he/him, straight, cishetallo - sorry :(

THOR ODINSON || THAT ONE THUNDER DUDE - he comes from asgard, where nobody really sees being queer as different - so when he comes to earth........just imagine his surprise when he finds out about homophobia - he found out when some dudebro was yelling at a girl who seemed like she wanted nothing to do with him - another girl was with them, and she looked like she wanted to kill the guy - thor was confusion - he asked what was going on, and the dudebro said that he caught his sister on a date with another girl - yknow, expecting thor to lash out at the girl - but thor was the exact opposite - he grinned, and congratulated the two on their relationship - WLW FOR THE WIN!! - dudebro started going off on a homophobic rampage - one glare from thor and he nearly shit his pants - and THAT is where thor got his title as protector of lesbians - he/him - tried using thunder based pronouns once but decided it wasn't for him - unlabeled. he thinks human labels are weird

JAMES RHODEY RHODES || WAR MACHINE - is he/him - gay as fucking hell oh my god - literally so gay - GAY MAN OVER HERE - k im done - i'm nearly 100% sure he's graysexual. doesn't really care for sex but if his partner(s) really want it...well, he loves them - probably has to steer tony away from fans all the time at pride - i'm also 100% sure he's down for polyamory. there's too much love for just one person in his heart - qpr with tony

PETER PARKER || SPOODERMAN - TRANS PETER TRANS PETER TRANS PETER!!!!!! - 🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧🏳‍⚧ - i know it's a really common tumblr headcanon but i FIRMLY support it! FTM - 60% sure that flash bullies peter because he's trans - i mean like it's more believeable than peter being a nerd - prob uses he/him - comes out to tony first, tony buys peter his first binder - may finds out next and she's just so happy. peter asks for name suggestions and she nearly cries - that's how he got his name :) - this kid forgets to take off his binder so often omg - like ned and mj and may MUST REMIND HIM or he'll forget - i feel like he'd be asexual but sex-neutral - doesn't care for it - bi. bi peter parker.

MICHELLE JONES || EMJAY - is enby 💛🤍💜🖤 - ain't no way she's a girl. like ain't no way - uses she/they if asked, but doesn't really give a fuck about pronouns - bisexual with a pref for gals. callin it now

NED LEEDS || NEDANIEL - pretty sure he uses he/they because he like the pronouns - thought that they/them was cool and just decided to use it :D - sweet boi, supports mj and peter sm - buys them pride flags ✨🏳‍🌈✨ - ned literally radiates aroallo energy like cmon - CMON - aroallos are so cool and sexy actually

LOKI LAUFEYSON || LOW KEY LMAO IM SO FUNNY - is genderfluid 💖🤍💜🖤💙 - like this isn't even headcanon fuck off - will use any and all pronouns, at any given time - idk...maybe it's just me but i'm getting MASSIVE asexual vibes - probably sex positive ace - like slay queen - panromantic. like do i even need to explain this

BUCKY BARNES || BUCKET - i will die on they/them bucky hill - and you will see my corpse there - and you will know i was right - unlabeled. doesn't fully understand themself rn, labels will probably make it worse - sam is a huge part of bucky's queer journey - probably uses peter as a queer encyclopedia

SAM WILSON || CHICKEN MAN - gay as freaking hell omfg - that is HOMOSEXUAL MAN RIGHT THERE - he/him - takes bucky to their first pride parade - queer legend - ✨🏳‍🌈✨

VISION || ROBOT MAN - is undecided on gender for now - decides to just use he/him while he figures everything out - i think he figures out that he's asexual real fast. like sex-repulsed - why humans would ever want to have intercourse is beyond him - same, girl, same - but he's definitely omniromantic. he does experience love, albeit a little differently than the rest of society - don't we all...

WANDA MAXIMOFF || WITCHY BITCHY - found out she was a lesbian after a failed date with vision - neither of them felt the attraction that they had before - so yes. gay. sapphic. wlw. - i hate the term but i feel like she would be a lipstick lesbian until she falls for a butch - she/her - has girl nights with her twin - hmm gay - ❤️🧡🤍💖💜

PIETRO MAXIMOFF || SPEEDY BITCHY - they/he/she - genderfluid, is particular about pronouns - like ik people don't really headcanon it but... - cmon. pietro is LIQUID GENDER. - (this also probably stems from my belief that every single fucking speedster is genderfluid no matter what fandom) - sees a pretty dress? will buy two. one for them and one for wanda - he really does slay stilettos tho - i think she's probably gay (mlm) - stfu pietro can be a gay man if they want to - fuck you

T'CHALLA || CATMAN - gay.

SHURI || GENIUS GIRL - she/xe - sapphic asexual - shuri x riri is the hill i will die on - leaning towards women and fem aligned genders - started first wakandan pride parade - i'm 99% sure she officiated ayo & aneka's wedding - change my mind

STEPHEN STRANGE || DR WIZARD - agender, doesn't see the point in gender most of the time, so they/them/he/him - believes there are three sexes but an infinite amount of genders - demiromantic, demisexual - fight me - is most likely gay 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 - had a qpr with christine before the incident

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

[irisbleufic]

Do you have any advice on how to write trans characters? What are the big no nos when writing them? Is it OK to use magic to help my trans characters transition easier? In general if I were to write a trans character in fantasy setting or in an older time period settings what would be different? Or would writing them and their struggles would just be the same?

I do have some advice, although the thing to remember from the outset is that I represent just one trans person's take on these questions. It's also important to know that my trans identity is, even more specifically, that of a person whose gender identity is nonbinary/gender neutral in part due to being biologically intersex. You may also want to ask these questions of a few other individuals with trans identities different from mine (i.e. trans women, trans men, agender people, and so forth). Nonetheless, I'll do my best to respond in a way that you'll hopefully find helpful!

At the most basic level, be respectful. The fact that you're seeking out people to answer these questions means you're already doing that, and believe me, we appreciate it! If you ever feel lost with regard to what's considered the most up-to-date terminology around LGBTQIA+ identities and orientations, the GLAAD Media Reference Guide is generally reliable if you can't get a quick answer from a live human. It may lack finer detail on some points (like the more exhaustive breakdown I gave of my own identity, for example).

Part of being respectful is also asking yourself why you're including a trans character (or a character of any marginalized identity, really). Show that you care about who that character is above and beyond the fact that they're trans. Foreground their personality; focus on who they are in terms of their temperament, their relationships, and even their flaws. For example, if you're going to have a trans villain, make sure they're not reduced to that status simply because they're trans. They likely have ambitions and beliefs that influence that status far more than anything else. Now, I'm not saying your trans villain isn't allowed to be vengeful because the world's been cruel to them; most villains have some component of vengeance going on anyway. Whatever role your trans character is filling, make sure they're fully fleshed out. I feel like this advice is just as much about compelling characterization as it is about being respectful.

With regard to the use of magic for fictional transition: I mean, why not? If magic is a feature and/or a piece of technology in your worldbuilding, I say go for it. I can count on two hands the number of trans creators I know who have included some kind of magical component to transitioning. If we could practice magic in reality, I'm sure we'd use it for transition all the fucking time. Now, if you're writing in a non-fantasy setting, you obviously wouldn't want to suddenly have magic appear for the sake of transition, and then serve no other purpose. You would probably want to reflect real world transitioning procedures, even if that means a lack of medical intervention. Many trans people either can't afford, can't be bothered with, or actively don't want to medically transition. It would be really neat (and have a normalizing effect) to see more trans people in fiction who don't feel the need to medically transition, actually!

This brings me to your question of writing about real trans people in the past. Some lived in times and places where early medical transition measures such as hormone therapy were available (for example: in the ancient world, drinking mammal urine containing estrogen was an approach to feminization). However, many more people did not have options readily available, which meant the most they could do was align the way they dressed and carried themselves with their desired gender presentation. We know a lot more about the lives of intersex and trans people in the past than you might think; even just using those Wikipedia links as a starting point for source location yields considerable information on some of them.

I can't make a blanket statement saying that their daily struggles were all just the same as those of modern trans people. Some of them may not have even struggled at all. This is why doing research is so important. It all depends on their context: culture, language, family dynamics, socio-economic class, did they experience dysphoria or none at all, etc. In that respect, things haven't changed a lot, because those factors affect trans people today.

If there's anything I'd like you to take away from this, it's that there is no single trans story to tell. In fact, there are far more yet to be told than have already been told. Many of us who began telling trans stories before we were completely out, or had completely figured ourselves out, learned in the telling. I'm not saying that will be the case for you, but sometimes the desire to tell a story is indicative that you're taking an active role in discovering your own.

So as a queer person, as a nonbinary person, as a transmasc, I had...an uncomfy conversation with a cis friend who just...didn’t get it.

¡She tries! ¡She does use my pronouns every time! She just...misunderstood how binary trans & nonbinary trans worked, & oversimplified the fuck out of it (binary down to if they desperately want surgery/medical transition or not, & nonbinary down to rejecting the patriarchy & societal influence on gender). & I disagreed in many ways with her oversimplification.

However...it did give me a new lens to question gender through.

The idea of, “¿if you could remove the patriarchy in its entirety, or lived in a society that didn’t objectify women sexually, or [insert any shitty racist, sexist, bigoted, etc. box that gets labeled man/woman, masculine/feminine, etc., thing you would have to remove, eliminate any Christian / other religious or spiritual contexts that may have influenced you], would you still identify as nonbinary? Why/why not?”

& like....maybe not.

Maybe if men weren’t demanded to be predatory. Maybe if we lived in a less problematic version of fantasy medieval world, with castles & whatnot but no sexism/racism/classism/etc., where women were safe around men & I could be a Gentleman In A Cloak™, I’d be just a transman & that’s that.

Maybe if women weren't only complimented for their sexual appeal, & were never sexually harassed or attacked, I'd be less uncomfortable being misgendered on accident (on purpose still is gross).

Maybe I would identify as a binary guy.

But in the context we live in, I'm nonbinary because fuck the patriarchy & modern masculinity.

I'm a chipper young fellow with a cape/cloak who goes around making people's day brighter and holding doors for ladies & gentleman & everything on or off the spectrum of gender.

I don’t care to be perceived as a Man™ by today’s definition - especially not the definition put out by white, &/or cishet, &/or rich, &/or powerful, &/or Christian, &/or Republican/conservative men.

& I think that’s an important thing to question, and to understand about myself & my journey.

It just felt icky how she phrased it, so I reworded it (no hate to her, we’re in-person friends & I knew she’d stumble because she doesn’t have a lot of trans friends). I wish she could’ve asked it differently.

I’m curious how other people would answer that question (as I rephrased it above, with those clarifiers, ¿would you identify or present yourself differently?), so feel free to reblog or reply to answer (or send Asks if you’d rather 🤷‍♂️)!

Hate will be blocked, this is for fun & hypothetical questioning, not for intense criticism.

This can include BIPOC/BBIMP, white people, people of any faith/religion (upbringing or currently practicing or both), people of any/all nonbinary identities (agender, neopronouns, genderfluid, masc/fem enby, enby, androgynous/masc/fem presenting, demigender, additive or subtractive, etc.), people of binary identities (if you want to), people with trauma histories or without, etc. - any person of any category, group, etc. who wants to participate.

you mentioned your wol is cis(ish), what does that mean? (/gen)

(In relation to my WoL post) Sorry this took too long to respond to, distracted by stuff

Short answer:

Long answer under the cut, but probably not as interesting as you might be hoping. But also deeply personal. Mostly a recap of the stuff in that thread, with a bit more context from my personal life and my evolving feelings of gender involved.

But if you don't wanna read all that, its basically "She is a in-universe fantasia addict and has no real attachment to her physical body, and that includes her genitals."

Language is going to be a get tricky in this one, given we are talking about a setting that may not have the same views of gender as we do.

She is Cis(ish) simply because she is an afab woman who treats gender like just another part of her dresser. Were she educated on the topic, she would probably consider herself either genderfluid or agender. She is always a girl, but rarely 'just' a girl.

T'sraetn is my main. All of my characters are some reflection of myself, but as my main, T'sraetn is more myself than anyone. As such, many of her changes throughout the years are based on my own changes.

She started 1.x as just an afab miqo'te, because at the time, I was a trans woman and T'sraetn represented who I wanted to be, and remained that way through ARR. By the time Heavensward had launched, I had grown more comfortable with being trans, and fantasia'd T'sraetn into a trans Au Ra girl.

I know "Are fantasias canon?" is a very contested question in the fandom, but luckily I don't give a fuck about other people's opinions, so I don't have to care about that. And the fun thing about treating magic gender/race change juice as canon, is it vastly increases the number of options for gender presentation.

T'sraetn became an Au Ra cause she thought horns and scales were cool and wanted some. She stayed a girl cause she viewed herself as a girl and wanted to remain that way. She got a penis cause she wanted one. It was really that simple.

Just before Stormblood I... changed her back to Miqo'te. I didn't really do it cause I wanted to, I did it because I was in a really shitty relationship and the person I was with at the time wanted me to. Shortly after Stormblood launched, I stopped playing her as that person turned into a stalker, and started playing a new character, T'alia.

T'alia was kind of built on the loathing I had for T'sraetn at the time. How I felt she wasn't mine anymore, so I made a bastardized version of her that I justified as being her mom. I joined another FC, and got to start roleplaying as this character and fleshing her out more. I filled in the role they needed of a central antagonist, which fit in with the loathing I had built the character on. I built a few other characters to play as when we didn't need a central antagonist that week. But as Shadowbringers drew closer, I noticed a problem. In order to do any RP's in Shadowbringers areas, I'd have to do the expansion a second time in order to get there. I'd have to unlock flying, and do all that other bullshit.

I didn't want to, so I introduced a new character: T'alia. Or more accurately, a clone of her, which the FC affectionately named 'Tali' to tell the two apart. This new version of her rejected T'alias goals for her, and wanted to be her own person. Someone fighting along the FC. However, she had cybernetic enhancements that allowed T'alia to control her body and keep her from fighting back. Now I had an excuse to be on either side of a fight, without it being a question of "Why do you go missing every time we fight this one specific bad guy"

I made a central part of Tali's personality her crisis of identity. She didn't want to be the person everyone told her she was. I uh... I was not that subtle about it being a metaphor for my saltiness over that ex who's FC I was in. She was constantly modifying herself, trying to replace her cybernetics or alter the organics of her body. I only *actually* fantasia'd her twice, first time into a Viera, but I imagined she was changing up her body pretty regularly, trying to find the one that actually felt like "her".

Eventually, I got kinda fed up with the limitations of Viera in the game, specifically after one of the holiday events where Viera couldn't even wear the reward from it. So I decided I was going to fantasia her again when I had the chance, and worked it into the RP. I had worked a lot of frustrations about my own mother into the character of T'alia, and so I had known for a little bit before hand that Tali was actually T'sraetn, and had dropped a few hints in RP about it (mostly referencing past stuff with other FC members who came with when leaving that old FC). Stuff the players would go "We sure did that together, yep." while being subtle about the fact that my character absolutely should not remember that.

Eventually, I did the big reveal in RP, changed my characters name back to my old main, and reclaimed my old character. The ACTUAL old character became Gaelicat. That... is not canon to T'sraetn's story (unless... hm...) I decided to leave in the love for changing up her body she had acquired as Tali. She still had the cybernetics at this point, and it was a recurring joke in RP that her arms would fall off in every fight and she would have to find someone to fix them. Even once she had her cybernetics removed, she still retained the same attitude of having no attachment to her body. It could be changed and altered, maybe not easily, but it was certainly possible.

So she has no real attachment to her current form anymore. She looks that way just cause that's how she wants to look. She might see a pretty hrothgal and decide to be one of those for a bit. She might want to go for a (slightly. very slightly) bit more of a masculine look for a bit and become a male viera.

Ultimately it boils down to... it doesn't matter what configuration the parts of her body take, its just a fucking body, and it can and will be changed on a whim with this handy blue drink.

All of my personal gender/sexuality headcannons for WWDITS characters!

Guillermo: He's a gay man. I've had the headcannon before it was even confirmed. I specifically think he's transgender,has had top surgery while he was Nandor's familiar and a phalloplasty that was funded by money he stole while working at Nadja's club lol. Good for him. I think he's stealth for the most part. I also think he's involved in the gay bear and kink community. He's a trans bear who's hoping to grow a nice beard someday. He's very jealous of Laszlo and Nandor.

Nandor: I think he's multisexual in general and would identify with bi, pan, poly or omni. I think Nandor is a cis man but I don't think he aligns his gender with the western ideas of gender but more with the genders within the Iranian culture he grew up in. He would definitely say that he's genderblind when it comes to attraction

Laszlo Cravensworth: I think he's a gender non-conforming cis man who identified as bisexual for years but also would identify as pansexual too later on. He's also canonly objectum. He might be in love with his piano and gets deeply aroused by it at times. Gender is a performance and he's going to have fun with it damn it

Nadja: I think shes a queer cis women. She's gone through countless identities for her sexuality and identifies with each and every one simultaneously. She's sapphic, lesbian, queer, bisexual and pansexual. She would describe her attraction to women as lesbian and I could see her rocking with the term bipan-lesbian. She's gay af

Colin Robinson: It is asexual and nonbinary if you want the short answer. The longer answer is that he's graysexual, demiromantic and panromantic. His gender is specifically that he's a demiboy/demimale who partially identifies with being male but also a gender that's nonhuman and alien. He doesn't identify as transgender sense it doesn't feel any specific gender dysphoria or bodily euphoria, it's just gender. It's got a hoard of xenogenders relating to him feeling digital, an eldrich horror or just a creature who's a thing that's digused as a normal human man. It also uses xenopronouns but that's mainly just an online thing. It/its and he/him are its favored pronouns. He's a kinky ace but he's gonna keep that to himself and Laszlo.

Sean: He's a cis guy who's questioning and bicurious but he'll call himself a gay ally who's 100% straight before admitting that. He's got "bi wife energy ✨️" He might also feel curious about the gay bear/otter community when it comes to queer masculinity. I feel it would help him accept his queerness more. He might feel like he's too masculine to be gay. He and Charmaine are very deep into the kink community.

Charmaine: She's queer and she's always known that. She idenfies with bisexual and sapphic but she likes the word sapphic more. She leans more towards men but there are some women that she feels attracted to. It's a very specific type *cough cough* ELVERA:MISTRESS OF THE DARK. She's not attracted to most women around her. Interesting how Nadja is the goth vampire gf of her dreams. That's so fascinating huh.

The Guide: She's a stealth trans woman who's pansexual please don't ask about her name she'll cry she doesn't know her name its been centuries she's still thinking about it just call her The Guide.

Marwa: She's pansexual and cis. She also feels intellectual attraction, aural attraction and attraction to one's voice/accent.

The Djinn: He's cis and pansexual. He's also a repressed virgin.

The Baron: He is intersex but idenfies as male. If you ask about his sex he'll assume you want to fuck him so be careful what personal things you ask 😁 if you don't want to fuck him mind your business. He doesn't identify with any sexuality. He just fucks as he pleases.

The Sire: The Sire is agender and his sex is a mystery don't try to find out you can't don't even entertain the idea. The Sire doesn't fuck with sexuality labels either. He's just chillin.

Evie Russell: She's a cis woman who's asexual and aromantic. She's also cupioromantic because she likes the act of dating and traditional romantic gestures but doesn't feel attraction at all.

Simon The Devious: He's a cis guy who's bi and having a steamy secret affair with Laszlo.

Derek: He's cis and pansexual

before i go to bed, since its ace week

hi. my name is night. im an aroace agender person

i dont connect with a gender. im physically a woman cause i dont know what i want from my body to actually look like, and getting treatment is behind a wall made out of loooooong time of doctors appointments and therapy and tests and whatnot. even more so for a person like me who has been diagnosed with mental issues before. however, that doesnt change the fact that i feel no connection to this gender, or any other - i mentally see myself just as a meat blob, having to just exist in this body without another option right now, tho what i physically look like on the outside rn does not represent how i actually feel. i know im genderless. im not a woman nor do i want to be, im also not a man nor do i wanna be that either. im also not a secret third option, im no option at all. im the 'opt out to not answer this question' button. the none of the other

im also very much an aromantic. ive had crushes before tho so ive thought for the longest time i might be demi. cause all my crushes came to be after a mental connection with these people were made. but it also never came with more than 'oh this person was nice to me at a time i really needed that, i like them and wanna maybe like be close to them and idk hold hands??’ but thinking back on it now, ive never actually like. felt romantic towards anyone. i have never been in love as far as im concerned. i dont like kissing, hugs and hand holding are reserved for people i care about closely but not in a sense where i wanna date them. or maybe i’d like to try, but i also know im never gonna love them as more than my friends. any kind of intimate bullshit is out of the question unless we’re close friends and mostly when i initiate. i think im incapable of feeling romantic love, but i dont think this is a bad thing in the slightest. i just view it as the necessary evil in a sense, where all the love i do got to give is the same for everyone regardless of our status and their gender etc., and its just a sign that we are friends. i have a love language, but its not romantic, i dont feel it, but i still show it to people who i deeply do care about. and thats okay

ive always been ace. i grew up always thinking everyone else was weird (and honestly kinda gross lmao) thinking about sex and kissing and boyfriends and girlfriends and i was just. idk in a sense trying to fit in. but i never leaned that way, i still dont - ive known for the longest time that i am sex repulsed, thats nothing new to me, which is why even as a supposed adult at the ripe age of 30 (lol) im still not getting into smut, like yeah that should be saying something. like this started when i was maybe like 12 or 13 and this kind of stuff started to pop up for the first time in my small friend circle, and i just never got into anything like that that a person my age was maybe supposed to. i was never interested. and one thing im thankful about having grown up the fucked up way i did is that i never dated. i never had to find out about my orientation that way. like maybe i spent a lot of time thinking i was a demi on this section too, just thinking that it was very normal for kids not to be that horny as i wasnt either - but i still couldnt get into the “horny” stuff kids my age were getting into. it was weird. but, i had all the time to think about it, and eventually when i got old enough to separate the sexual and romantic attractions and online became a place i could search on my own safely (yay first own laptop!) and more informative about this stuff, the labels just. kinda fell into my lap. and it made sense. ive made my peace about being this way a long time ago and i dont care what that makes me in someone elses eyes (for example, my mom thinks its better that im “supposedly ace” rather than i would date girls :))) ), i know who i am and how i am. and im ace. and you can have all the sex you want idc im not here to preach i just know thats not for me and i do not crave for it, not now, not ever, and never have

oh and also yeah i think my bio says flux in there, its a thing i was made aware of recently in my last identity meltdown few months ago, which is basically like. you are the base of these identities (in this case, aroace) but some times it might very slightly but noticeably fluctuate towards something else for a brief amount of time - so if you’ve ever seen one of my gay panic moments yeah it might be actual real gay feelings i have. i dont know, but it feels appropriate and accurate and even if its not, having a little label to pin on it like an asterisk helps my anxiety about it so. yeah. and thats the most important things

im not only writing this to make it clear who i am and what i am, but maybe someone will see this and know that no matter what they identify as and what they are, they are valid and loved. if nothing else, i love you 💜

#night is an absolute mess on main #aromantic #asexual #agender #im tagging this yay #if you have a problem block and move on im not listening to your negative shit on ace week #im here im queer i can be fucking loud about it if i want to fuck you #anyways love you i need to go to bed lmao #aaa

[sammy8d257]

To the person who just sent me an Ask asking about my opinion on Trans people being pressured/forced to leave the country

Bruh, of course I think it's a bad thing that trans people are being forced to leave

I'm a trans person (non-binary -> Agender, specifically) and I care deeply about what happens to other trans people

But I also don't know if what you just sent me is even real and if I should even answer this ask because I have been getting so many spam bots, I can't fucking tell if this is spam or legit.

And if it's legit, if this was done to troll me or is genuinely asking my opinion

Because like, why did you send me this? What was the purpose???

#Sammy8D says #I'm so confused??

[arundolyn]

Mind sharing your orientation hcs for the undernight/guiltygear cast?

thats a bit of a tall order so here's the ones i personally have particular thoughts on?

hyde - bi

linne - too old to care about labels (bi, some flavor of trans/nb for fun. can't tell me she's basically immortal and is not tired of cishettitude. and also her reincarnation thingy is potentially very conceptually interesting in that it specifically puts her in the bodies Of Girls. brings up some interesting ideas regarding transness even if i personally like to think her soul just goes to whatever it vibes with that's closest at the moment her current body dies and she has no say in the matter. fuck canon that one's more fun. from that standpoint maybe some kind of genderfluid then.)

wald - GAY CAUSE YOU CAN'T TELL ME THE SHIT WITH KUON WASNT LGBT AS HELL. yeah uh huh you respected him as a warrior sooooo much that you defected and pissed adelheid off so bad she said licht kreis is girls only now. no they broke up and she was so big baby mad about wald being Gay, Apparently she's not letting a man within 10 feet of her again i guess

amnesia is like lgbt gang. chaos and gordeau are obvious. too easy. enk gay trans man. hilda trans lesbian who will flirt with men just for fun or evil purposes. girlboss moment.

orie lesbian executor squad quadrouple so true. mika's bi. kaguya is so lesbian definitely. wagner nb lesbian bc why not lets run with the shoddy localization its more fun that way.

phonon + nanase trans lesbian besties to gfs speedrun

yuzuuuuu so bisexual. i love you failgirl

vati agender for sure

merkava canon trans

carmine's just confused and would punch someone he had a crush on (hyde) bc hes pissed theyre making him act weird.

lmao thats mostly everyone whoooops

gg: (i have not played strive's story and dont anticipate to in a while)

sol - lgbt all at once no i will not explain

axl. dont even get me started trans butch nb lesbian you either get it or you dont. i can opine for days

relatedly i-no lesbian. she said im not about to date a man and axl said wait what the fuck did you just trans my gender. her power...

bi ky bi ky no i will not explain

milla elphelt ram all lesbians. id say millia is ace too

baiken and anji trans wlw mlm solidarity ofc

testament

goldlewis is gay as hell for sure and we love him for it

johnny is an egg detector that counts for something

bridget trans gener

ANSWER IS SO GAY. chipp is bi. they are in love and they kiss in the president's office

zato hates women he's gay by proxy but who's keeping score over there. and his strive outfit is literally gay as fuck. why is he as a man always standing with is ass toward the fucking screen. stupid.

slayer bi but hes married. if sharon let him..... im not elaborating.

gio big lesbian for sure

!!

using this as an opportunity to ramble abt cognac yippeeee !!!!!

[ tw - death / poisoning talk , violence (? i dont know if like. hitting your head counts as violence but i dont know how else to tag that. so.) ]

cognac was one of three main scientists in a non-aahw non-nexus lower-budget facility alongside nyx and her sibling, chardonnay, and specialized primarily in chemistry . she's by far the most serious and work-oriented of the three but she is a little bit Funny. despite being logical in her work she's incredibly stubborn and defiant (less in the 'no to everything' way and more in the 'well you told me to so now im not going to' way) whenever it comes to personal matters. she refuses to take days off or otherwise take breaks because . yeah who fucking knows she's just like that . this usually means someone else (nyx) has to be the voice of reason which typically just leads to more weird nonsensical reasoning on her end. she's entirely aware what she's saying probably doesn't make sense but is too stuck to really care abt it .

on the note of nyx !! the two are very close :] she's not super super great at conversation and social things aren't her strongsuit but they also aren't his so yippee autism win i guess . despite her difficulties with it it's incredibly common to find nyx in her office and for her to occasionally stop by his . she thinks he's fun to be around and admires his kind of Silly nature and he just thinks she's smart and cool . [ canonically speaking they are Just Friends but noncanonically they are t4t , take of that what you will ig ]

this isn't to say her and chardonnay aren't close though !! they are as well but its less of the friendship nyx and her have and more of a . twin thing . its hard to explain . they just kind of 'hey you have this same problem / thought right . ok im gonna talk to you about it now because you probably have the right answer I Guess.' they trust each other immensely and are very very close. chardonnay DOES antagonize her a little but only in small amounts jokingly .

anyway . yeah cognacs dead . she tried to have nyx take over for her on a project for a minute so she could go check on someone else in the same sort of branch but obviously !! nyx is not a trained chemist. he has no fucking clue what he's doing. unsurprisingly he does fuck up and kind of accidentally mistakenly makes some kind of carbon monoxide-like substance . luckily for him he leaves the room shortly thereafter to go back to his own work with little more than a migraine. unluckily for cognac , she doesn't notice the mistakes he made and, due to staying in the room for much longer ends up passing out, cracking her head open on the way down and just kind of . bleeding to death.

(note i know NOTHING about chemistry this is all like very very basic light knowledge of mine dont look into it too much . please. im begging.)

thats kind of it linear wise so ;

-cognac is agender and primarily uses she / her pronouns , somewhere on the aro spectrum (most likely greyro or demiro)

-i cant remember her original insp BUT she's got some inspiration taken from cassie o'pia

-voice claim off the top of my head is probably sloppy jane - wilt

-somewhere over 6'5''

-big snake fan, she thinks they're very cool and intelligent :)

[hoskinsvarietyshow]

I’m the level of autistic where I can’t actually understand people’s embarrassment. Like. I conceptually understand the embarrassment of being perceived. “I can’t go to the gym because people will look at me not knowing how to do this thing.” what I can’t understand is “I can’t have even my friends or family see me working out.” or “People will think I’m fat if they see me at the gym and that is too embarrassing.” (That second one I understand is irrational because presumably people know I’m fat if I go anywhere at all, I’m not especially fat at the gym, so I assume they understand that too.)

My brain just can’t comprehend caring what someone who has signed up to spend time with me and calls me their friend thinks. They don’t get a choice anymore. They signed up for this. It’s not a thing I can quantify for people who think they’re something other than a bit of static in a condom full of jelly in a moving corpse. “I can’t say UwU. It’s too embarrassing.” Bucko, I can’t imagine anything more embarrassing than admitting you care more about that than just saying the dumbest phrase the internet has come up with since glomping because your embarrassment has you by the cajones. 

I can understand not wanting to fall down in public. I can’t understand caring enough about the opinions of strangers to deny myself something. My brain doesn’t have the capacity for it. “Surely you have-” No. I feel shame the way a lizard does. Anything that makes me feel like prey is a bad thing that I can’t have happen. What a bunch of naked primates with no killer instinct think or care about means nothing to me. I do not like doing things that make me stick in peoples memories not because I think I’m some mammal that is a main character and innately memorable, but that I need to control my effect on the world. “Oh you definitely remember me from last time” Is the most embarrassing thought a person could have. Parasocial Andy is an insult.

I’ve spent a long time following a long list of rules on how to appear neurotypical. I have rote answers I say to strangers because fuck you. You’re a fucking NPC. Go away. I don’t make waves and I don’t complain because absolutely no one is being paid enough for that unless I need that money badly. I speak like there’s fucking exposition because I can’t think of anything more pretentious than assuming someone knows something. If you ask if they know it, 8/10 times they’ll just nod to shut you up. If I’ve been personally invited somewhere or have agreed to go there with someone, I stay until they’re sick of it. If it were up to me, I’d just fucking leave. No bye. No see ya. I’d just get in my car and go home.

“Not all asexuals, autistists, agenders, are robots” No, some of us are lizards who really, really hate having to follow mammalian customs because someone’s feelings might get touched so we just follow the rules until you leave us alone.  

[delunesnumberonefan]

it makes my heart so happy that genevieve is just. head over heels absolutely insufferably horny for rune. this woman wants to climb that hunk of all american beef like a tree and she’s not about to let god or anyone get in her way. i joke with people but there’s damn near one reminder per page that she is absolutely horny out of her mind for this hot pink beefcake. she’s making bedroom eyes on the first date. she’s waiting forty minutes by herself in a bar because she’s willing to go the extra mile to get the slightest chance at a kiss or more from rune. she’s clawing at the walls trying to fuck them. she wants to fuck, she wants to date, she wants to grab onto rune and never let go because rune ticks every single one of her boxes

and then you’ve got rune, asexual aromantic agender, triple a battery, not interested in romance in the slightest, has an attitude towards sex that’s basically the equivalent of “yeah i have sex with people like you’d itch your buddy’s back” they don’t put any importance on it, so they don’t mind, say, sucking dick on the first date. constantly confused that genevieve is boned out of her mind for them, doesn’t really “get” her love of sex, but enjoys it well enough. regards romance as something they’re too cool for. trips and falls into caring about genevieve beeeecaaaauuuusee

neither of them are normal human beings. genevieve asks rune if they have a glowing pink bush on the first date. rune doesn’t understand why “kill them” is not an acceptable answer to “this person is bothering me.” genevieve has a body count in the dozens when it comes to both people she’s fucked and people she’s killed. There is probably an overlap on that list. rune’s entire family revolves around crime and doing criminal activities, and they regard beating the shit out of people as “fun stress relief.” genevieve’s idea of a fun time is making everyone in her office viscerally uncomfortable for her own amusement. rune sees nothing wrong with this. in fact, rune participates in this wholeheartedly. genevieve has a therapist that she lies to in order to make herself seem normal. rune thinks that’s a good idea for the environment she’s in.

they’re both DERANGED. ABSOLUTELY BONKERS HUMAN BEINGS. who even are these two what the fuck i love them so much.

they are so fun to write because you take what a normal person would do and throw it out the window. and you write them as deranged as humanly possible

i love these two so fucking much
