Bc i dont like using transphobic concepts.
also why genderbend when you can just do a trans headcanon??
its so much more inclusive then just slapping tits on a character.
Also, the goal of a bend is to make the character the opposite gender, implying that theres a binary only. nonbinary people exist and i dont stand for enforcing the binary.

So don’t come to me with that genderbending crap, thanks.

I think you’re reading too much into it.

Genderbend characters are a fun “what if this character was the opposite gender/was more feminine/masculine” They are not meant to be harmful or against trans people.

Making someone the opposite gender doesn’t mean only binary exists. It’s like making a fire elemental a water elemental, it doesn’t mean that other elements don’t exist, it’s just the clear opposite pairs.

You have to agree that males and females are raised differently, both varying in environment and attitude, so genderbending a character to have more feminine/masculine features because of their new gender/environment isn’t an outlandish concept.

It’s really not that deep.

Yes, you also have the option to do a trans headcannon but that could also become a problem for it could be seen as having a trans fetish. Another problem would be to accurately, and non-offensively, writing the realization and possible transformation.

I personally don’t believe genderbents are transphobic, nor harmful. I kinda see where you’re coming from, but I also think you’re reading too much into it.

To each their own

Exactly my thoughts on the matter

throwback to that time in my existentialism class where the professor asked ‘who thinks hell is other people’ and half the class slowly and meekly put their hand up

then the prof was like ‘…i mean who originally said it’

Concept: Cold Topic. The opposite of Hot Topic. You walk in and you don’t immediately feel a thousand goth eyes piercing into you. The music is peaceful and subdued and not destroying your eardrums. Lots of color and pastel shades. You find a ton of cute stuff and the lack of the ow the edge attitude is kinda pleasant. The salesperson offers you complimentary cupcakes. You find yourself in a welcoming atmosphere, but it’s a little too welcoming. Another salesperson appears except they look identical to the first one. You start to feel uncomfortable so you buy your things and head for the door. Then 5 more freakishly identical salespeople appear to obstruct your escape route. They don’t let you leave

Funny story from the other night:

A dad came into my cafe with his 3 year old daughter.  He bought her a cookie and himself a coffee.  They sit down, and I go back to my pre-closing cleaning.  Three minutes later the dad walks up to the counter again, so I stop cleaning and walk over to greet him again.

As I’m in the middle of saying “hi” he cuts me off and says “Water.”

Not “Can I get a glass of water, please?” not “Where can I get water?” not even a confused “water?” like he’s not sure how to get water in this cafe.  Just a single word demand.

I work in silicon valley, so I’m kind of used to techies talking to me like I’m Siri or Alexa, but it still always drives me crazy when they do this.  Like, I don’t even care about the “please” anymore, I just want people to talk to me in complete sentences.  So I get the guy a cup of water, and he sits back down. 

As I’m about to go back to cleaning I hear his daughter go “Daddy, you did that WRONG.  You have to say ’CAN I have a glass of water PLEASE’”

My jaw hit the ground.  The dad suddenly became flustered and tried coming up with excuses “I-I said please…” “No you didn’t!” “Well she was busy…. I didn’t want to bother her…..” “You still got to be polite!”

When they were done eating the dad brought the dishes back to the counter and said “Thank you so much!” It’s amazing how fast someone’s manners can improve when a 3 year old calls them out.

Shout out to whoever is teaching that little girl manners, because you know it’s not her dad.  I hope she never stops calling rude people out.

Here, something positive to brighten your day.
