That even IF people may give you uncomfortable looks, it’s no reason to put yourself down. He continued to act in complete confidence despite the weird looks because he was proud of what he was doing and who he was being.
So instead of saying we should treat kids like these aren’t issues and just let everything be perfect, we should show them that yes, those things WILL happen. You might get teased, you might get weird looks, you might be questioned, but in the end it’s about being confident and sure of yourself and the fact that there will be people who will back you up and support you.
I get really mad when people trivialize trans issues by acting like all it takes to be trans is wearing the clothes of the opposite gender.
STOP.
Trans is not how you dress or act, it’s how you identify.
So quit screaming that every boy in a dress in a show is transgendered because that’s basically profiling and generalizing what ‘trans’ means.
It’s just the same as saying anyone with a lisp must be gay.
There is a very medical reason for being trans. Biologically, male and female brains have subtle differences, each with their pros and cons. Brains and bodies develop at different speeds in the womb so it is possible for the brain to literally have the wrong body. It’s not as simple as wearing a dress or changing your voice, it is an actual medical condition which causes gender dysphoria. Gender Dysphoria is an important part of identifying if someone is trans.
I’m pretty sure we didnt, because you seem to think that a couple of initial looks of confusion over someone doing something they’ve never been seen doing before is the same thing as shaming.
As far as I recall, no one made fun of Big Mac for dressing in drag. They were caught off guard at first, but no one tried to shame him or make him feel stupid for it.
And that screen of Rainbow Dash is her saying she and Scootaloo are still going to win. She’s being competitive, not mean.
The only thing that made Big Mac feel any shame was that he started not playing very sportsmanlike. He went too far and got Applebloom and himself disqualified. That’s what upset him, that he wasn’t able to get his sister the blue ribbon.
Seriously, people try too hard to find reasons to be offended by MLP.
Never forget that this fandom started as a reaction to someone being offended by MLP.
Don’t you love when people take caps out of context to suit a SJW cause?
Also, the people saying it’s offensive to trans aren’t even trans. In fact, all trans and gender fluid people I’ve seen love the episode.
Please don't put epilepsy as a tag to try to warn for seizures. I try to look at the tag to learn and find support, and am bombarded with triggering media. This is counterproductive and the reason we don't ASK to put a warning on everything. Flashing lights don't correctly correlate to seizures and it doesn't directly correlate to epilepsy at all. So we ask that you either change your tag to something helpful and not harmful, rather than tagging words out of ignorance. Tw seizure or flashing gif
Alright, let me start off by saying you’re wrong in the sense that photosensitive epilepsy, which is what I have, IS caused by flashing/flickering/etc. Visual stimuli in general. I’d also beg to differ that no one with epilepsy “asks” for warning tags because I’m pretty sure me and like everyone else I’ve seen with photosensitive epilepsy DOES.
So, like, don’t go spreading false facts.
Secondly, out of my 6.5k posts only TWO are tagged with epilepsy and that tag is behind two warning tags “tw: epilepsy” and “epilepsy warning” deliberately put there so people like me can fucking blacklist them.
Like yea, aight, I get you not wanting me to tag with “epilepsy” specifically. I’m aight with that, fair enough.
But if you’re going to come up in here and spread false facts and pretty much call me ignorant you need to re-word your requests.
Like that’s literally the only problem I have with your ask.
Your wording.
Plus you said flashing doesnt correlate to seizures and then tell me to tag with “tw seizure” and the entire point of this post is to have me keep flashing images out of the epilepsy tag even though they “don’t correctly correlate” and said people don’t ask for tags, and then you asked for a tag.
So yeah maybe cut that out of your ask when you head over to the next problem person in the tag. Because other than that bull, your ask and point was fair and understandable.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
