there's a post I saw a few days ago (and of course now can't find to screenshot and apply twee visual effect to) that said something along the lines of
"anime boys are boys, but anime girls are so over the top with it that they barely even have a gender. people use them as avatars all the time on social media or VR chat or whatever and it says nothing about how they actually identify"
and I'm not gonna say that every random dweebus using a gender nonconforming anime girl avatar is transfem, but I do think that it's kind of boneheaded to completely degender the practice and associated behaviors in weaboo circles, yknow?
like it has been remarked upon before (often derisively!) that various aspects of anime fandom, esp around sitcoms with mostly or entirely female casts, provide an extremely rare almost-socially-acceptable avenue of gender escapism for amab folks, and this is one of the ways that that manifests. the popularity of girls-forward shows provides cover for fandom denizens to present femininely vis a vis avatars, reaction images, or light role play, discuss topics and express emotions that aren't traditionally masculine, identify with female characters, and so on.
and on the flipside it's like, fairly well documented and uncontroversial to say that a lot of transmascs participated in fujoshi circles for similar sorts of reasons with similar sorts of results
so while there do exist regular boys who use those sorts of avatars and do those other sorts of things, naturally it attracts a huge and wildly disproportionate -to an extent that is difficult to fully grasp- cohort of eggs and people who are just starting to work on gender things, whose character I am not commenting on here.
but like, the gender nonconformity of it is the point! it's the whole point!!! it is core to the experience of online anime subculture how can you miss thaaaaaaattttttt

Hobie being written to behave inappropriately to women is obviously antiblackness but also just a stupid ass take because how in the goddamn hell did y'all watch Atsv and think he was anything but a 'men ain't shit' Mama's Boy.I mean there's him being down horrendous for Miles but i sincerely doubt Miles is a dude

gender is such a fucking scam product "oooooh you got a certain set of genitals at birth so now everybody treats you a certain way and you gotta fill certain roles and you also gotta buy into 17373736 different Gender Marker products and systems to prove you deserve to not be cast out of societal legitimacy" like shut the hell up this sucks so bad
