Bullshit. Sorry but that's just bullshit. Every character is canonically the norm/default unless OTHERWISE stated, not the other way around. Trans people are such a tiny minority so no, a character is not potentially trans until explicitely stated to be cis. That's like saying just because it's not explicitely stated in canon that a character is human, they could just as well be an android.

Every character in literature is white unless the narration describes their skin like food.

[(Anonymous)]

If we are talking about a novel set in 19th century Russia, probably yeah, they are.
Also context clues are such a great thing: someone called Ndung’u most likely isn't white.

Milk-white is pretty common, cry about it. Not anyone's fault not a lot of foods are white and food items as descriptors are the more flattering way to describe brown tones.

[(Anonymous)]

What are you reading that milk-white is common???

[(Anonymous)]

DA

You've never seen A League of Their Own?

[(Anonymous)]

What are you reading that you've never come across it. And again, most foods just aren't white. If they were, you'd have more food descriptors for pale skin as well.

[(Anonymous)]

And for the pale food descriptors there are also cream, eggshell, wheat for slightly tanned white.

[(Anonymous)]

DA

Peaches as well

Written in England about Victorian England? Yeah, gonna assume they're white until otherwise stated. Written in China about the Warring States Period? Gonna assume they're Asian until stated otherwise. Written about the Hausa expansion? Gonna assume they're black until stated otherwise.

In all of these cases, that's what greater than 98% of the population is.

That's how context works.

[(Anonymous)]

Heck, you don't even need specific real-world context to make inferences. A story about a fictional desert-dwelling people in a fantasy world? They're likely going to have darker skin.

[(Anonymous)]

No, surely there's no connection between things like environment/location and skin color! It's all totally random!
