Yeah, it's...really...strange. Especially for Jake. Little beady eyes...

their buck teeth are gone too WHY

(Anonymous) 2014-03-17 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
So what?

Just don't read fic where one of them is trans - really not that hard given that even in this fandom there aren't that many fics with trans characters.

Apparently when a half dozen people on tumblr make up a headcanon and go to ridiculous lengths to claim it's canon, that makes people like OP in the minority somehow.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-17 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it hard because you don't think any of them are trans? Or because you are weirded up by tumbler-tran headcanons where their lives are just an afterschool special of why transphobia and bullying are ~bad and people buy them binders/packers regardless of how creepy that might be irl, your older sibling buying you underwear?

*shudders at the prospect*

I ran into a few of those a while back. Oddly enough, it was always Dave playing the metaphorical lead role. None of the rest of them. I have no clue why.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-17 11:44 pm (UTC)(link)
...you know, given that people who post trans or POC or otherwise diverse headcanons in their own blogs frequently deal with a deluge of actual death threats and rape threats, and that the vast, vast majority of fic and art and headcanon in the fandom is cis, you should maybe rethink your wording. And your persecution complex.

Seriously, if you don't go around giving people shit for wanting representation/having headcanons that differ from yours, you will literally have zero problems.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-18 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Posting headcanons on one's blog is not even close to doing anything for representation.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-18 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't say it was. I meant that the people who do that tend to come from a place of wanting to see themselves in media even though/because they generally don't.

Sorry if that was unclear,

It wasn't.

To be fair, on Tumblr, you'll get this for literally anything. I said I didn't think Armin from Attack on Titan was that interesting a character, and someone Armin stans got hold of that post and I received an impressive deluge of actual death and rape threats.

I'm confused...is there a significant presence in the fandom of people suggesting the kids are trans? I know at least a few people think Jane is because of her Detective Mustache, but I've never heard a peep for the other kids...

Depends on what corner of the fandom you're involved in, or what kind of people you follow. I see a lot of people on my dash who headcanon the Striders and/or Roxy (but strangely never Rose) as trans. Mostly Dave, for some reason, but someone made an interesting discussion about Roxy possibly being a translady at one point. I don't subscribe to the headcanon, personally, but they brought up some really interesting ideas.

Whenever I see a Homestuck secret I don't wonder about their sexuality; I wonder why none of them have any arms. That's the more pressing mystery to me.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-18 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
It was a style decision, presumably to save detail so that pages could be drawn and uploaded at a fast pace. It's made fun of at the very beginning of the comic to fuck with the readers by trying to get them to help John find his arms.

(Anonymous) 2014-03-18 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks. I've never read the comic and all I know of it is what I see in the secrets here. That's one mystery solved.

What are you talking about.

One of the first commands we gave that little shit was to retrieve his arms.

I dont' think he has them all this time later but he's totally got arms dude.
