Well, I didn't know it was autobiographical, so maybe OP didn't, either.

I don't see anything in the secret that says that don't approve of or care for trans women's identities. All they're saying is that they read them as gay men.

Look, all of my own fetishes are problematic. Both radfems and libfems have been equally shitty to me about it. So I always err on the side of leniency when it comes to people's fantasies.

The comic makes it pretty clear its autobiographical so I'm guessing OP knows.

And dismissing/disbelieving in someone's identity can be just as bad as disapproving of it. If OP has a crossdresser kink there is plenty of actual media focused on that without them having to be sleazy about a trans woman's autobigraphy.

How does it make it clear that it's autobiographical? By having the character introduce herself to the audience? You don't read much if you think that's uncommon in fiction.

my dude, i'm pretty lenient about peoples fantasies too, but for someone to say that they read trans women as gay men, that is, yes, inherently implying they don't care about trans womens' identities. come on, please think critically.

I'm not a dude. It's puzzling how I get labeled as one by feminists all the time.

I think it's just as shitty to police people's sexual fantasies as you think it is to not care about gender identities. Honestly, I don't even think we should give people a hard time about RPF because none of us can help what turns us on. We're lucky that fandom is the only place in society that comes close to allowing us to explore our fantasies.

da but most people use "dude" as a gender neutral term, especially when its in the context of "my dude"

(Anonymous) 2016-02-27 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. I'd never heard the term. Am I showing my age? :)
