#you're also giving terfs more ammo

I have to say something a lot of people won't like:
I super hate it when people, especially trans women, see a femboy and call him "she" and say he's a trans women/egg
Y'all know that that's also reinforcing gender roles?
Seriously. As soon as a guy does *anything* even remotely female, the egg jokes come
I get that you recognize yourself.
But you're also erasing femboys/nonbinary folk
Can't men do anything feminine without being assigned a different gender?
Can't femboys just exist as femboys?
Y'all are so quick to reinforce the gender binary. But you think it's fine, because you're trans yourselves.
It's not.
Stop telling feminine men/femboys to "just transition". How about you accept the gender fuckery instead of upholding the binary?

🔥 unpopular opinion about whatever you want! Unleash the controversy!
this is where the fun begins. i'm gonna get yeetened and annihilated by a large population on this site 😈. if you call me a terf, swerf, fascist, republican, right-winger, conservative, torie, or any other random buzzword that alludes to any opposite of liberal for this - i don't care, go ahead and block me. viewer discretion is strongly advised.
kicking and screaming about how literally every single fictional character in history is trans and getting upset over people going against your "ideal" version of a character doesn't do anything to help the trans demographic at large - it's more of just an annoying nuisance and comes off as performative activism. it also makes the trans demographic look like a bunch of basement dwellers who do nothing but consume media 24/7 (and usually it's children's media and not anything more complex or challenging). i'm not saying all trans people are annoying, but if all a lot of you do is project yourselves onto any character you're attached to and just throw temper tantrums or get upset when someone challenges the trans narrative you're peddling, you're just gatekeeping people from a piece of media and making the trans demographic look like a bunch of entitled, whiny children. in a way, you look like the conservatives who get upset over fictional characters (mainly female characters) get non-sexualized redesigns. i'm not against the trans demographic, but, being trans (or a minority, in general) isn't an excuse to be super annoying and act like m*cu simps who get butt hurt over someone not agreeing with your narrative that you've hyper-analyzed to the point it has absolutely nothing to do with the original piece of fiction.
the trans demographic wants better representation that's not problematic or depressing, but having ash as your horror trans icon is counterproductive since it's implied in a bit in aved where we learn that in high school, ash slept with one of his teachers. that act counts as statutory rape since ash was most likely under 18 years old when that happened, meaning that he's a victim of sexual assault (it's in season two when he goes back to elk grove). i get that sexual trauma is, for lack of a better phrase, a common cause for someone to be trans, but it's really weird that you want your fellow trans people to just be seen as victims of sexual abuse rather than normal people. considering that conservatives and right leaning people push the narrative that all trans people are victims of sexual abuse just makes you give more ammo to the people who want you dead
