I don't think that turning cis characters ino trans is the solution. That's just delusion. I'm okay if people want to pretend that certain characters are X in their fantasies, but pretending that is canon is asinine and moronic.

Rereading that, saying 'asinine and moronic' was probably too much. My apologies, I had to deal with this topic during the last week and I'm still a bit sensitive.

You know, if I don't see enough non-het or non-cis canon characters, I'm just damn well going to headcanon them myself. And I don't think it's "moronic" to think there's some arguments to be made for a valid interpretation for a character to be non-het / non-cis, which could be any character, hey, but especially those who have the markers that someone who is closeted may have.

I think if the writers likely meant someone to be het & cis by default, of course insisting that they must not be according to word of god or whatever is probably fairly fruitless, but let people have their fun.

Drawing on gender stereotypes to insist some characters MUST be X or Y is pretty annoying, but it can also lead to fuelling the imagination, in amongst the sea of otherwise girly straight girls and red-blooded masculine boys we are given.

...But I was specifically talking about headcanons? I was of the understanding that 'not considering it actual canon' was kind of implied.
