Yesssss.
It also always shows a very obvious misunderstanding of Chinese culture because those people always equate "does not like fighting and prefers art and likes fans" with being effeminate when the cultured male scholar is just a different character archetype that's not actually all that much less masculine. And fans are not an effeminate accessory in the least.

[(Anonymous)]

It's all seems to be part of some fandom need to ensure that characters cannot be cis, regardless of the authors intent.

In fact in the author's notes for the novel MXTX said she had originally planned to give Huisang a wife but changed her mind.

It's also concerning that fandom cannot accept that two men/women can't just be friends. There's a real gap in understanding that people can care about each other deeply without it leading to some kind of sexual interaction.

This is funny to me from 1. a cultural standpoint as the refined, educated scholar is in no way a 'less masculine' archetype in Chinese media, and 2. feels like it ignores the entire reason why his character refuses to take up his sects cultivation: he sees what it does to his brother and wants no part of it, it's not because he's too weak to fight but that the only way he would learn would be through a method that would slowly poison him to a gruesome death.

This is the same mood for me disliking most trans headcanons because it's always the guys with "girly" interests who are hced as trans women and vise versa. >|

[(Anonymous)]

This bugged the hell of out me in Les Miserables fandom, too. The character who is canonically quiet and sensitive and into poetry and romance is always headcanoned as the nonbinary one, to the point that it's just assumed. You want to be all trans- and genderqueer friendly by making a character nb, but you do it by picking the least threatening, most stereotypical option?? Pick the big muscle-y one who's into MMA!

This whole thread got real toxic real fast.

What I question is why OP thinks "it's normal to know specific details about the genitalia of random people in public bathrooms."

Also, what's supposed to be the downside of kids going on puberty blockers with "hardly any screening." If someone gets on blockers and then decides they don't like it, they can, uh, stop. It's not hard.

i agree. she doesn't think she's transphobic (she has trans friends!), she thinks that the concept of trans people is a threat, not the people themselves. you know, trans women aren't predators.... but if you let trans women into women's bathrooms you invite men as well and we can't sacrifice the safety of cis women for this. adult trans men are valid... but poor widdle teenage girls should not have access to hormones because what if they confuse how much it sucks to be a woman with wanting to be a man :/
that is her brand of transphobia (for now)

[(Anonymous)]

She is a nasty old transphobe whose views have caused a spike in hate crime, lead to people's pain, and possibly even deaths. It doesn't matter what flavor her bigotry is, 'cept maybe to other bigots, that she is a bigot is enough on its own.

[tabaqui]

Christ.
I simply cannot give a fuck about what JKR thinks of transgender individuals/culture/issues other than she's transphobic, so fuck her.

[(Anonymous)]

but...but...surely there are spells to do this and no real-world muggle things needed? like, learning to become a metamorph? constant polyjuice? ffs if you're going to stick to the author, at least be canon-consistent!

Yeah, I can understand why.
Creep is one on those horror movies that's just plain disturbing because it's so senseless.
I liked that movie far more than I'd expected from the poster/summary. The characters were brilliant imho.

Nice secret!!! <3

I agree! They both have interesting love lives as well, another reason they don't need that kind of relationship with each other. I also like that them not being together or interested in each other romantically isn't interpretable as a no-homo thing since Tuca is openly bi.

Speckle is great too. I thought at first that he was going to be a problematic boyfriend that Bertie ended up dumping to move back in with Tuca, and I'm so glad I was wrong.
