Too many fandom debates now revolve solely around "is it canon" and leave behind the far more important question, "is it terrible"

Literally the only reason I'm loud about being an ESL speaker is because of how cruel people were to me once I started out later in life than what's deemed ""normal"" and like... the amount of shit people would give me for miniscule things such as using 'were' two times in a sentence while simultaneously telling me I'm "better than native speakers" supposedly, not to mention the neverending infantilization about how I must not be very smart because they assumed I couldn't convey complex thoughts in english even by the time I very much could and did. It annoyed me so much just how rude people can get away with just because you're not perfect at the language you're using, especially because they don't know yours...!!! Fortunately this has gotten wayyyyy way better in the last 5 years IME but I can't help but still feel like I need to have my guard up even now.

"if you ship this thing it's because you're too naïve to understand that it's toxic and that you wouldn't like a relationship like this" actually it's because I see one of them as a mentos drop and the other as a bottle of coke zero and I want to watch the mess they'll be together

i keep seeing that post about how frustrating the buff guy -> petite girl type genderbending is, and i wanted to add my two cents regarding the addition of ‘just swap pronouns and don’t change the design’ approach because i think these are two sides of the same coin, as they both fail to really delve into what i think is the most interesting aspect of this design exercise.

the reason i find genderbending to be such a fun and interesting challenge is because, if you actually want to be good at it and put thought into it, you have to really consider the character’s canon gender expression and think about what it means to them and how it reflects in their outward appearance and presentation.

is this male character buff because he likes to work out / be strong, or does he aspire to achieve conventional heteronormative male beauty?

is this female character a tomboy because she likes to express herself in a more masculine way, or is she doing it to fight gender norms?

the answers to those questions should produce very different designs!

this website loves to say that gender is a spectrum, but sometimes i genuinely wonder if people actually understand what that means. 

gender expression, much like gender, is also a spectrum, which is why keeping the character exactly the same won’t always work, in the same way that just making the character conventionally attractive won’t always work. but sometimes, a buff dude would actually just be a hot girl. lady bane, however, would 100% look exactly the same.
