man, most of this thread sucks

it feels like people are more concerned about them being able to write about trans characters than actually getting it right

(Anonymous) 2014-12-11 10:54 am (UTC)(link)
a trans person said something they disagree with so it's a good excuse for them to whip out their transphobia

(Anonymous) 2014-12-11 01:01 pm (UTC)(link)
pretty much this

(Anonymous) 2014-12-11 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
You know what would be transphobic? Someone making a secret that said "every trans* person does this terrible thing and I hate you all."

good thing context is a necessary component in weighing the words of marginalized groups vs their oppressors then, right slick?

Yup.

Most of the people in this thread don't even seem like they write about trans characters. They're just annoyed with the "every cis person does this" tone of the secret.

(Anonymous) 2014-12-11 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, i doubt most people here had plans to, but considering that cis people do screw up a ton when writing trans people and it's writing fanfic where 99.9% of the characters are canonically cis in the first place, i'm a little surprised at the outrage.

but not really

the secret literally said they shouldn't even *try* to get it right...what were you expecting?

and I didn't see a lot of comments from people who wanted to write about trans characters, just from people commenting on the hatred in the secret
