Dammit, fail computer double comments.

12- I just started watching this but the music thus far hasn't impressed me as much as I thought it would.

30- Although I think your version is more likely (And interesting), the HS!Au people are getting from canon that he's so popular. I've never really meet a popular quiet guy like the stereotypes (But maybe it's more prevelant in Japan? Or just not in my school)

33- I generally agree. I understand when every other girl is HOMG bi sexual or HOMG really a boy, but like...I'd rather put up with 5 or 10 who are going through growing pains and grow out of it, then put down the one who really needs it. And I wish I had an Isabella icon for you.

36- I want one too, but I can't justify the price.

50- Just because it's not about the sex doesn't mean you can't enjoy the sex. I mean...I have a deep emotional attchement to my significant other, but...you know. It's not JUST that.

53- Is there anywhere I can get info on this spinoff without ruining the whole series? (I'm on episode 3 of the original)

Exactly. And more what I was trying to express was... I keep having friends come to me and say, "Look at that person! They're not really transgender, are they?" And sometimes, after hearing out their case on why so-and-so is not trans, I think they may be right. Then I realize it's not my fucking business. I always feel as if they expect me to thank them for pointing this person out, or that I should be mad someone is like that. Instead I'm mad that they feel that's something worth being threatened by. You can think whatever you want about someone, but you'll never know their heart. Just like some people would drag up being in this or that fandom as a reason that someone isn't really transsexual, so people in my life have sought to find reasons and excuses why I'm not. People pretend they're more openminded for accepting me, but it's because they know me, not because they really believe there is something to this transgender thing.

Sorry I tealdeered you there.

(I manged to be logged in this time)

I think...for some people fandom is a comfort zone, and at the same time it's a bunch of catty cows (And I Know I've been on both sides, unfortunately, even if I try to stay to the "good") And I understand why people get frutrated but I also have seen people who honestly DO need this outlet, and might not because yeah, it sometimes seems every other 13 year old who picks up Gravitation suddenly thinks they're really a boy deep down. But in someways I think maybe fandom is opening up some sorta of boundaries where we CAN feel like boys, or boys can feel like girls (I have no idea which way you are anon), and because it's kinda new and shiny at first everyone swings to one extreme.

And eventually I think most of them will realize their not, their just tomboys or whatever, but if it gives one person a safe places who can't find one in the "real" world, who's business is it to decided who's "Really" this or that? Like you said only THEY can really know what's going on inside, and specially with being transgender, from an outsiders presepctive it's already confusing and hard enough without having people nit pick every little detail to see if they're "really" trangender.

Most of the trans-policing comes from other FtM's.

I personally would feel bad if someone went through all that hormones and surgery- just to regret it two years later. Not to mention the reason I've had to go stealth in fandom- girls stalking me saying they're JUST LIKE ME KAWAII FTM BISHIE* OMG.

I'm nowhere near a bishounen. It's just that people assume that you are if you're transitioning from female to male.

I've seen plenty from not FtM, maybe they're just more vocal about it? Where as other seems to be snarking in private chats and such?

I would to, but don't they put you through TONS of mental test and such to weed out things like fanbrats who realt a bit too much to their fav anime boy?

Yeah, they do. You have to see a shrink for at least 6 months AND convince them that it'd be better for you to live as male (meaning you have to be fairly masculine, which most fangirls aren't).

But my inner cynic is rough of me sometimes, because you have the people who don't want hormones or surgery, and THEN you have the people whose doctors you think were smoking something...
