My opinion as a trans person is to let it be. It feels too reminiscent of the real life "How can we tell which people who say they're trans are really trans?" when the answer should be all of them because I'd rather a few people are faking it for whatever reason (although I can't imagine why any genuine cis person would want to fake being trans) slip by and get... seen as trans? and that hurts real trans people how exactly? rather than real trans people be disbelieved. In the same vein I'd rather cis people get to write their fetishes (which, again, I fail to see how that actually hurts anyone. Being uncomfy is not the same as being hurt) than trans people who are still figuring themselves out and not writing things perfectly accurately be accused of being icky disrespectful cis fetish-havers.

DA

I don't care if an author is actually trans or not. I'm not actually a robot and I write about them. And I don't care what the intentions of any individual author is, because that's impossible to discern. I care about overall trends. The overall trend is to put vaginas into explicit M/M fic while at the same time not writing about actually being trans or discuss issues in canon that crop up from making a character trans (Why are none of these trans characters dysphoric?? They all use their front hole. Every. Single. One.). This stinks of homophobia to me at worst, at middle it stinks of het writers wanting to get the clicks of slashers and using "trans" as an excuse to put their het fic in the slash side, at best it's fetish writers (cis or trans) which is whatever, just tag it. No individual fic is an example of any of those possibilities but all of them taken together point to something other than trans people writing their experiences or desires (especially dysphoric trans), especially especially when it's not tagged.

It's funny that you're so concerned with this trend when fandom and fanfic has trends of being racist, yet that always gets met with an 'eh people are what they're into' which is true, but for this we need to clutch our pants and act like people should be writing/consuming this 'the correct way' to be acceptable.

Some people are kinking on trans stuff, some people are writing their own experiences for catharsis, some are writing a fantasy they wish they could have. None of this is going to end the world, you can unclench and let people be.

Why do you assume ayrt is unbothered by all-out racism? Just because you're not bothered by it? Anyway, racism wasn't the topic and your whataboutism doesn't invalidate what ayrt wrote.

I'll take whataboutism for $500, Alex.

I am bothered by racism AND bothered by the sudden rise of homophobia presented to us in social media and fandom spaces. The two can exist together.

I just wanted to say AYRT isn't the trans person who commented further up about letting cis people write their fetish fic. That person is me. And I generally agree with AYRTs points, but I would never have brought racism into the discussion.
