I’m glad to be included in gender, and it’s an honor to trans your gender, but gender is astrology to me. “Girl sun boy moon.” You don’t agree, but now you get me better. Send post

#super super fun and everyone likes to look themselves up #but we made it all up yeah? #it’s like holidays yeah? #and then you learn more about (being very serious here) #there are living cultural practices that take astrology very seriously #and set up aspects of real world material oppression around your birth chart #(I was educated by a good friend on how astrology is handled in other cultures than my own) #which is also like gender: all in good fun until you realize people are taking it so seriously #that little kids are growing up in unconscionable circumstances #because their parents have decided who they are based on various external quirks like stars and colors #rather than the kid showing who they are through their heart. #so it’s all in good fun except when it isn’t. #but once again going back to the all in good fun part #it really is so sensible to say girl sun boy moon. #you can feel this #you get me!!! #it explains so much

I think the circle is a great conceit for a show because it really shows that there are a lot of men out there who believe that things would be Much easier for them if they were able to present themselves as "hot blonde woman" and it's very satisfying for them to quickly discover, oh they are all ganging up on Hot Blonde Woman, oh everyone in the chat is making enemies and tearing down this girl, oh I have Immediately become a target

And I do think that this belief that they will have a easier time becoming popular if they look like Woman Character is coming from how we see women doing better in dating apps and social media. But these specific guys seem unable to register that women can perform better in these spaces because they know how to Present themselves. They know how to build the profile, construct the narrative and talk about themselves (a symptom of growing up being constantly critiqued and looked at).

So like is Hot Blonde Woman character more likely to do better on social media, yes perhaps, but it's because they've become very good at creating this identity and know what audience they're targeting, it is not as these men discover much to their chagrin, because they are just inherently hot and it falls into their lap

#this is coming From a genderfluid person (me) so I hope the broad gender terms aren't too generalised #sorry if they are #Don't want this to be a 'men do this and women do this' post #but yeah saying there is a certain demographic of men who are unable to accept that becoming Popular is a time consuming skill #and if a woman has a following it's cause they played the game well #and anyone who had the upbringing of a girl hearing someone say 'oh I'll have a woman character for this game that will- #-make everyone like me' is aware of how Hilarious that statement is😭 #the circle #tv shows #reality tv

#joyce stuff is pissing me off lately we’ve lost the plot. #people are misinterpreting the script and acting like this means charlie is canonically a trans woman #as a fandom we have a tendency to ignore the things written for satire /social commentary purposes in favor of interpreting them #as integral character lore. but this bit was a vague half-baked transphobic joke that was cut down a ton FOR A REASON. #this was not written with any sort of sincerity #and don’t get me wrong i love charlie gender stuff. #and its so fun to incorporate the joyce stuff into a larger open ended conversation about charlie’s relationship with gender #that before the whole joyce phenomenon had a million different open interpretations #but now everyone is acting like this one off DELETED episode gag is actually canon and it feels reductive to me idk #i was so excited about this and now its pissing me off so bad i deleted my joyce art U WILL GET HER BACK WHEN U LEARN MEDIA LITERACY #i know its not that serious but also it is if u interpret my favorite show wrong u will get struck by lightning RIGHT NWOWW

On the train of your last ask, what are your thoughts on dragons sexuality?

Personally I think he’s Demi something (more attracted to personality than looks or gender)

Honestly because we don't know that much about the guy it's kind of hard for me to form an opinion, and if Crocodad Real then we're going to find out his orientation eventually (since we gotta find out if that was a contributing factor to the Dragodile Divorce (assuming they're divorced)) so I'm kind of okay with not forming any headcanons, since the headcanon could get thrown out the window

If anything, what interests me is how Dragon's orientation could impact the story-- like when I've discussed the Dragodile Divorce I have mainly focused on speculating how Crocodile would've felt about it, but how Dragon felt about that is interesting too

Because if he's straight then yeah that probably contributed to The Divorce, but how did Dragon feel about it? Learning that the love of his life is now happier than ever before after transitioning and being happy for him, while also losing the version of Crocodile that he fallen in love to begin with? No longer feeling thet draw to him because of the thing that has brought him so much joy and comfort? Knowing that even if they did take down the WG the family Dragon had hoped to have would never come to be, because their relationship would now end? And that it would be on some level his fault, because he's not attracted to Crocodile anymore?

Like even if Dragon took things well and the divorce happened "on good terms", it would've been sad for Dragon too.

But then there's a slightly juicier option, because what if Dragon was bi, but the Divorce happened under unpleasant circumstances (be it Dragon lashing out or things getting violent because he couldn't recognize Crocodile) and he didn't figure it out until it was too late?

Because you'd still have Dragon going through some if not all of those previously mentioned feelings, of having to come to terms with the version of his significant other whom he had fallen in love with no longer existed, the family had pictured in his mind would never become a thing, that those things were be kind of his fault and that he had hurt Crocodile deeply in the process. But then he'd be looking at some news article of Crocodile's most recent heroic stunt, seeing his handsome face with that usual, unbothered expression, and realizing he still loved him? That he still wanted to be with him, wished they were together, even now that Crocodile was a far more handsome man than he was? And then the realization that he's bi hitting him like a fucking truck But it's too late. The divorce already happened. He already hurt Crocodile too deeply. Knowing Croc, he had probably already moved on. There was no fixing it, the relationship was over. At least for now, trying to go see Croc could be dangerous due to the WG and not wanting to risk the WG finding out about them and The Kid and Croc would probably be furious if Dragon even risked that at this point, after what he had done. Oh, and then Crocodile killed thousands of innocent people attempting to usurp a country by manufacturing a civil war. Something Dragon can't forgive. (Not to mention, hearing he had been taken down by their own son... Oof)

But what if despite all that, and not knowing the full circumstances behind what had happened (like the fact that Crocodile didn't know who the hell Luffy was), Dragon still loved Crocodile? What then?

#Moon posting #Asks #Dragodile #OP Meta #Answering an unusual amount of asks today because 1) Compensating for being AFK for a while and #2) The Tumblr News are deeply fucking upsetting and I need something to lighten my mood desperately ngl #So clearing my ask box it is wheeeee #Sorry this is a little incoherent lmao #Something about Dragon looking at Crocodile and being like ''why the fuck are you more handsome than me'' cracks me up okay #When your transgender husband gives you gender envy #I just love the story telling potential bi Dragon would give us because like.

while i totally believe cannibalism in nbc hannibal is a metaphor for love i also believe it's a metaphor for transition (not intentionally written that way but it just happens--it could also be a metaphor for coming out as gay)

bc think about it

will has this side to him he has to suppress

he then goes through stages of exploration, self-acceptance, and embracing who he is

this involves killing as an act of transition towards his true self (similar to how we have "deadnames", some people may even view transition as a sort of "killing" their pre-transition self so their true gender self can be born)

he is literally scared of how good it feels, which is very trans--being terrified of what it means to let that shell crack, fearing you are a monster for enjoying these things (which, the "monster as metaphor for queerness and social outcastedness" is a classic horror trope)

not to mention rituals, consuming/growing/literally having new substances inside the body that you did not experience before (human flesh as hrt), and engaging in acts that the world finds heinous but nourishes the body

his cannibalism is him becoming god-like ("Killing must feel good to God, too. He does it all the time") and we all know trans ppl are gods and goddesses and godexxes of the mortal realm

rly the list goes on

but basically season 1 will graham is eggy as fuck and season 3 is him finally becoming his full self and accepting love for who he is and thats so sexy and cool and transgender of him

#hannibal #this is at least partly a shitpost and i dont believe all the things im saying and u shouldnt either #i do believe the fundamental point tho that will's arc is a transition arc #and i dont think it should be limited to just gender transition as there are many transitions in life but it applies well to gender #esp considering the overall queerness of the show #hannibal is the gay daddy we all wished we had guiding us through the transition process #or maybe thats just me lmfao #anyway #hannibal nbc #nbc hannibal #hannigram #gay cannibals #queer #gay #i think it could also easily be a metaphor for autistic unmasking #or rly again any kind of transition and i think thats why the show appeals to so many #bc everyone can relate to the joy of seeing someone transform #into a more authentic self #uhhh #yeah ✌️ #this is all strictly relating to fiction btw obligatory “killing is bad folks” #shouldnt have to say that but this is tumblr #honestly im just giggling to myself about human flesh as hrt #im just going through some gender shit rn and hannibal is helping me through

[arrowsplayground]

nothing's quite as good as a whumper cooing "aw, aren't you so sweet~" right as they metaphorically (or literally, i don't judge) rip whumpee's heart out of their chest

#whump prompt #intimate whumper #?? i think. #whumpee/whumper #whumper/whumpee #whump #tbh i've never been much into gendering whump prompts bc i enjoy inserting my own blorbos anyway #and assume everyone else does that same #BUT when it's a lady whumper??? n it has that high-pitched mean-girl voice?? #that's like. so hot. do u understand #im thinking of a voice in my head that's so specific that it HAS to be from a show #but i CANNOT remember what it's from!

btw every time someone suggests a solution to a community problem is to 'read Whipping Girl' you should actually read something by bell hooks instead, or, failing that, any decent social theory by an actual sociologist or academic in another social science.

#this will fix everything #the worst offender is 'wow I'm really annoyed by this trend I haven't realized stems partially from Whipping Girl.' #'we should all read Whipping Girl about it.' #< fastest way to show me you're either a liar who hasn't read it or an idiot with no reading comprehension #ac speaks #like. there is so much gender theory out there that isn't one mid book from 2007 #why has everyone chosen it as their fucking gospel #if you think masculinity and feminity aren't innate or inherent serano disagrees with you. #if you think transmisogyny doesn't mean 'the worst version of transphobia' serano disagrees with you. #(not that people can't use the term in ways that Make Sense or Advance Good Ideas but this book is stupider than most of you realize.) #transgender

I don't get why everyone's surprised that the brotherhood use the correct pronouns with Dane. I think people have forgotten a major aspect of the fallout environment. The bombs falling destroyed conventional societal norms. This includes any political agenda to erase trans people from history and the future. Also this is fiction. The brotherhood of steel are not a conservative christian political party. They care about what they dub "abuse of technology", this includes the biproducts thereof. The only people who fit that category are synths and mutants who they view as abominations that need to be exterminated. If trans people even counted as abuse of technology (which they don't and shouldn't, as the technology used for transition is helpful and not hurtful), they would be so far down the list the brotherhood wouldn't care. Why would they care. It's really not a big deal imo. It's a big deal in OUR world, but not theirs. Not by a long shot.

#fallout tv show #it's just weird to me as a trans person that this made such a huge fuss #really shows that people think it's radical to support non-binary people by simply using their pronouns #everyone's acting like it's out of character for them but it really isn't that wild #they still treat Dane like shit #like the rest of the squires #why would they care what pronoun someone goes by when the wasteland is so harsh #they have way bigger problems than someone going by they/them #and it's not like they're campaigning to protect trans people specifically #they just referred to someone correctly #we really need to raise the bar for trans support #cause if using nb pronouns is radical than oooh boy we're fucked #and I know most people prolly mean it as a joke #but it really rubs me the wrong way when people say its weird or doesn't make any sense #trans support doesn't begin and end with pronouns ok #the wasteland is not like this world. who the fuck cares what gender someone is when you could get killed by a cockroach the next day #besides it's not really the brotherhood that's respecting their pronouns it's the show writers and that matters more #anyway hope you enjoyed my rant #please raise your standards for trans support all your trans friends and family will thank you for it

during my first visit to england when me and my partner were both pre t, we tried to go to a public toilet that had a pay gate of like 40p or something. i, being a fresh aussie tourist, fumbled with my change trying to work out what the coins were, and i got stuck at the gate and looked obviously flustered.

this older man was leaving the toilets at that same moment, so he pushed the exit button for us and prompted us to run through the now open gate.

we thanked him for his help, to which he replied in his heavy northern accent, "no worries. by the way, what are you both doing in here? this is the men's room"

my baby trans arse had no idea how to respond, but my partner, in such a dead pan tone, promptly replied with "we ARE the men"

and the guy just shrugged and said "oh alright" and walked away

i still think back to this fondly and while i havent been in a situation like that since, it's absolutely a response i'm going to use if questioned again lmao

#life of doge #ok to reblog #i tell this story a lot because idk its just so funny #and kinda sweet? #just goes to show that the average person kinda doesnt give a shit #like yeah he wouldve been confused #but he sounded genuinely confused/curious #also my partner was apparently really flustered also and didnt know how to respond #and just blurted out the first thing he thought iirc #dont recommend this to everyone of course #but if someone sounds genuinely curious and not hostile #its a good fucken answer to give #assert your gender

venting in tags about gender n shit (long as hell) (u can comment and talk 2 me as always :3)

#okay so i got a really masc haircut about a month ago and i know it's just a haircut but holy shit has it changed EVERYTHING for me #like.... i've always leaned masc except 1) before i came out 2) when i was actively in love with someone who i knew liked femmes #and they always described me as a fem. because that's what i showed her. because i wanted to be with her. #but lowkey whenever i'm in a not-impressing-anyone raw-dogging-life-no-crush era i always resort to a very masc style #like masc being my default and i'd only lean fem to impress people whether it's for love or peer pressure in a specific setting #like ''dressing up'' has always been a form of drag to me. like something i HAD to do to fit in or impress my parents (scott favor core) #but ever since this haircut i've realized... i could just BE masc innately like i really don't have to be womanly if i don't want to #which i usually don't. again i have only ever dressed fem for other people. but it's not even being masc that attracts me on its own #it's like. being masc in a distinctly lesbian way. as in whenever i look in the mirror i don't wanna be like a Guy i wanna be a dyke. #like lesbian as a gender identity too sort of thing honestly. okay i've been waffling but basically i sort of want to call myself butch #but i don't know if i like... can?? if i'm allowed to??? #everyone always says it's MORE than just wearing boy clothes and not wearing makeup and having short hair (which i already do all those) #i mean i've always id'd as genderqueer because it literally just means gender weird and i experience gender in a queer way #what's probably the most telling is that my friends (all queer) CALL me a butch lesbian #like every time they do i feel really internally validated. it's not just my clothes but my personality too ig is what people tell me #i have a higher pitched voice relatively speaking but apparently the way i talk is quote ''very clockably into women'' #which?? gender euphoria asf. my best friend specifically he (gay trans guy) always uses butch to describe me very intuitively #people have also noticed that i ''transitioned'' in all aspects except hormonally. like ppl have commented and noticed my masculinzation #but at the same time i always feel rly haunted by my ex relationships because one wanted me to be more masc #(she's the one who came out as straight and would treat me like a man) which i didn't like and i didn't like playing up being fem either #bc now it feels like she (butch) won't believe me if i called myself butch too bc she remembers me being femme #idk i feel like there's her voice in my head all the time that sees everything i do through her eyes (i'm lowkey still in love) #i feel like even though this comes so naturally to me i must be putting on a performance #even though i've actually read stone butch blues and done research into the history and i truly love and id with the culture like i rly do #that im still just a sad imitation of a butch lesbian and can never really be a part of it because i used to enjoy dressing up sometimes #like it's so stupid but can i still be butch if i wore a dress to prom and i think i looked good in it?? #even though i was envious of my friends who wore suits?? that i used to try goth makeup?? that i liked long dresses?? #that i enjoyed stacked necklaces and rings on every finger??? #and tbh ALL OF THAT CAME FROM A CONCIOUS EFFORT TO FEMINIZE MYSELF IN JUNIOR YEAR OF HIGHSCHOOL WHEN I WAS 16 #because omfg it was 2 months before junior prom and i was worried that i was too masc and wanted to get comfortable with being fem
