If imagining a character as a difference race is fun to you, idt anyone will care as long as you're not patting yourself on the back about it and acting like it's some kind of statement. There's a reason the middle step of back patting is included in the secret, and there's also a reason people don't react the same way about genderbends, unless the person is trying to make some kind of awkward feminist statement by it... which I have seen, but it's much rarer compared to people doing it about race.

(Anonymous) 2025-03-25 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)from my perspective, the trans genderbends tend to be WAY higher proportion "I'm 13 and I've got confused gender feelings that I'm going to project onto my blorbo en masse as a safe way to explore them" which tend to be really sloppy narrative implications wise AND messy and cringy in terms of Bad Representation, because the kid in question doesn't KNOW that much about being trans, but doing a good meta thought exercise OR a Successful Woke Signal are both not really the point
(or I'm 20s and have gender feelings with a limited outlet irl and I'm horny about it and want porn that caters to my specific dys/eu phoria, with a similar effect that it's way more Woobie than Woke, and not really about the character beats of THIS character 98% of the time)
none of which is to say this is a bad thing, fandom's openness to that kind of personal expression is one of its great gifts, but yeah for someone who actually wants CHARACTER and social exploration it's frustration
