stopped reading fanfics when a character or the reader insert is trans, the trans guy is always whinny woman lite just there for an extra hole and is always some twink whose acting like a pick me then if theres a trans woman shes agressive and dominant and only there for "girl cock" just like trans man is only there for "man titts" and "boy cunt" intersex rep? nope just bigenital stuff getting tagged as intersex even tho its not. they usually also dont use bigenital but the tag intersex, the h slur or the f (slur? idk if its a slur or just a weird porn category that they also put trans women into)

and it dosent matter if the author is trans or not, the trans characters are only there for fetish. they always make the "bottom" trans, even if the fic isnt sexual, they take the "more submissive one" and make him trans, for trans women its the dominant one or the top, it pisses me off, we can do better than this. please, i know we can.

its crazy but it’s clearly fetishization- reducing transgender characters to a single character type or quality in terms of sexuality, no matter the character or fandom it’s all the same- but a lot of people see the word fetish and flip out and go “oh so you think trans men can’t be feminine? you think all trans women are gender conforming and weak? you think we’re just fetishizing people? IM ALLOWED TO HAVE MY SEXUALITY” which is just like. what’s that one comic where two people are criticizing the narrative or writers of something and the other character goes “WELL I LIKED IT!”. thats how it feels half the time. this leads me to my conclusion of “dean winchester would not fucking bottom,”

Bro, we are cooked. The knight that dogs the prince's shadow like a dark and silent wraith just knelt to press his forehead to the prince's hand. Yeah, now he's uttering a prayer whose recipient is ostensibly God but in reality is the deified version of the prince that exists only in his mind. Aaand the prince just caressed his cheek to preemptively grant him absolution. I gotta... I gotta get out of here.

“What? Like, a disabled protagonist? How would that even work? How could someone with a disability be the hero in an action show?” local anime trash boy wonders while sitting next to his box sets of Full Metal Alchemist, showing no hint of irony or self awareness.

Not to get too philosophical, but I'm afraid Nietzsche cooked when he said: "If you kill a cockroach you are a hero, if you kill a butterfly, you are evil. Morals have aesthetic criteria." Because I'm pretty sure that if the archaic depictions of Medusa would me more mediatized and famous compared to the classical ones where she looks more human and beautiful then people won't get that appalled by the fact that Perseus killed her even though he had no other option. They need a cosmeticized and overdramatized version of her, because otherwise they won't have any empathy for her.

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."

It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
