#headscratch this could be solved by doing more dom/neutral role leaning trans hunter Alongside trans subby stuff but like.

*taps mic* *lean in* opinions on trans hunter? 👀

ok so this is a bit of a difficult one so i apologise if it gets longwinded because i do want to try and be as clear as possible but TL;DR: because of my heavily fanon interpretation of hunter, i worry about contributing to the fetishization of transmen

the long version:

Preface no. 1: i am not trying to say that trans men cant be subs

Preface no. 2: i am not trying to say that personality necessarily has an influence on sexual role preferences 

BUT.

the previous fandom i was in (arcane) did this funny thing where they tied [Being A Sub] to [Being A Trans Man] like it was some kind of absolute package deal, and they did this on a character who had no canon basis for it. people were literally changing his personality to be more submissive alongside their trans headcanon. it was as if by way of being trans he also had to be a sub, and that was just the way it was. i hope i dont have to explain how weird that is.

my worry here goes like this: specifically in regards to a headcanon that has no canon basis (woefully, pillow princess!hunter came to me in a vision and exclusively exists in my head separate from the show) i worry that, like with arcane, attempting to impose both at the same time onto a character such as hunter (preface 2 but points at arcane phenomena) it implies that i think being a sub and being a transman goes hand-in-hand, which i very much don't want people to think as that is fetishization. 

i Do like trans headcanons, and i Do like the idea of trans hunter, but simultaneously i feel like it meshes weirdly with all the pillow princess talk n the shit i get up to on this blog because of what happened with arcane viktor / [exaggeratedly subby transmen when theyre not like that in the show at all] (preface 2 but points at arcane phenomena), and i dont want to contribute to a similar sort of deal here. that being said if you have ideas that bypass all these worries and pitfalls im all ears

All That #and is also part of the reason why i left that fandomspace because it was literally so balls to exist in #sigh arcane fandom not only built something terrible but they razed my poor League-canon vikjayce ecosystem to the ground to do it #anyways. sorry this is unhelpful #again if you have ideas im all ears #.txt #reply
