So it's ok to headcanon characters as gay, or bisexual, or in love with whatever random character you want them to be with, but headcanoning a character as trans or whatever, is just totally ridiculous?

[insanenoodlyguy]

no. IT'S TOTALLY HILARIOUS.

[gondremark]

This has nothing to do with trans or gay or bi or ace and everything to do with labels in place of story, character development, and description.

Sometimes, headcanoning a character as trans is as ridiculous as headcanoning a canonically gay character as straight. There's a mountain of evidence against it and it's just silly.
Other times, headcanoning a character as trans works out because there's nothing canon to say for absolute certainty that the character is cis.

But no matter how you're headcanoning a character, just go with what you've come up with for the character's past or how they feel about things or whatever, and don't resort to stringing labels like so many beads.
Do I want to hear about your idea of what Alice and Bob's relationship is like? Sure, go ahead, draw a picture of them together or write a story about them. Actually tell me what you're thinking, don't just start flinging labels around.

(An example of canon not saying for certain and letting headcanons run wild: For a little while I headcanoned ACD's Watson as transgender because he really doesn't seem gay but his hypermasculine attitude towards women and dating seems like posturing. Doyle never shows us Watson undressed, we never hear of Watson's family or childhood except a passing remark about an estranged brother, so it can all be made to fall into place)

The examples given don't look like head cannoning to me - as far as I can see they are 3 examples of anonymous prompts on a kink meme/prompt-a-thon.
It's no different to seeing say: "Sherlock had difficulty talking to people when yonger. Mycroft bought him the skull to practice on." as a gen prompt on a prompt-a-thon and then someone else would use that to write the fice or draw an art piece etc.

It's actually from a blog called queer DC headcanons unfortunately. SO yeah, that is pretty much the extent of each of these. Tack on a label collection and you're good to go.
