I hear that. I mean I love genderbending where a dude becomes a lady, but if you don't immediately shriek about how that makes them trans* and they should always be miserable and never happy then you get all but burnt alive in current fandom. Some folks just don't get the difference between fantasy-fiction and actual real life.

I actually prefer just to have them be born as a girl.

I want to read stories about women but I find so many female characters so fucking boring.

My solution is just to make my favorite male characters into women every once in a while.

I wish people would stop harping on it.

Want trans? Fine. Want to ship canon het? Fine.

Why can't they just leave me in peace?

Man, that's what I did with Kirk/Bones back in the day. I'd read fem!Kirk/Bones or Kirk/fem!Bones. Some of the best damn fic I've ever read. Too bad livejournal borked all the damn links...

Counterpoint. Being trans is a mental disorder, with the only solution currently being physical. There's no reason to believe that your average person would suffer from dysphoria if they became a passable cis version of the other sex.

I've seen the "gender-swapping is problematic because you are erasing and demeaning trans individuals" posts and, man, those are posts I wish I could unread.

I've never seen a critique of the term genderbend or genderswap that was worth a damn, really.

There are a lot of those "gender bending is inherently transphobic! Don't gender bend you transphobic fucks!"going around, together with this annoying habit of trying to pressure fanartists into adopting trans/nb headcanons and I wish people would stop.
