I feel like Metal Sonic fans fall into two camps

Camp A - fans who believe Metal Sonic should have a chance to grow and become his own person completely separate from Sonic, and forge an identity all his own!!

Camp B - fans who believe Metal Sonic when he says he IS Sonic and think he should get the chance to prove himself RIGHT and prove everyone who doubted him or called him a copy DEAD WRONG (i’m Camp B)

Either way we can all agree Metal Sonic is trans as hell 🏳️‍⚧️🤝🏳️‍⚧️

I wish I had any way of knowing whether people have gotten Weirder™ about my name in recent years or if this has been happening behind the scenes the entire time

I've been going by Jay since I was 11. At the time nobody objected to or questioned this, at least not to me; I found out many years later that Jay is supposedly a "boy's name," but nobody ever said 'you can't use that as a nickname, it's a boy's name' and it went completely uncontested by anyone when I switched. Lots of kids announced some manner of name change at the start of a new school year in middle school; it was all normal and fine. My mom and, you know, grandmas and other relatives kept calling me Jessica, which was also fine! I didn't make a big family announcement or correct any relatives on this, I just wanted to differentiate myself from the half dozen other Jessicas in school.

For twenty years!! This has gone on being perfectly normal! My Real Name™ is an increasingly obscure bit of trivia I get to spring on friends who didn't realize I had one, which is always funny (my brother in law didn't believe me and demanded to see my driver's license). My mom and grandmas have largely still called me Jess, and that's also fine! It's nice, even! There's a particular intimacy there of having a name only my mother uses-- but, crucially, I have never asked her not to, or said that I don't like it. And as FAR AS I KNOW, this has all been true and fine for TWENTY YEARS.

My own feelings about it have never changed, and feel, to me, very straightforward: if I tell you that my name is Jay, and you decide that no it isn't, that is a problem. That's the rule. That's literally it. I had a high school teacher who asked on the syllabus for us to write down if we went by something other than our full name, who was nonetheless UNIQUE among all of my teachers from 6th grade onward in always and only ever calling me Jess, even though I signed all my work Jay, all the other teachers called me Jay, he literally asked whether anyone wanted to be called something else and I answered Jay, and I had him for two semesters. I met a work friend of Justin's once who asked upon introduction whether Jay was short for something, and when I told him it was short for Jessica he took it upon himself to call me Jess instead. This isn't me having a problem with any particular iteration of my name, this is just asshole behavior! I told you what my name was and you said 'no it isn't'. The problem here does not seem complex to me?

But within the last [hand wiggle] handful of years I feel like it keeps getting weirder? Apparently my dad and grandma argued about it at my wedding rehearsal-- she, dramatically, insisting 'I don't care, her name is Jessica, I'm going to call her that ;n;' and my dad angrily defensive that no it isn't, I go by Jay, that should be respected. And I'm sitting here listening to my dad relay this in utter bewilderment like. Well dad I love the energy but I have never been bothered at all if grandma calls me Jessica. I have never even once asked her not to or complained to anyone that she does. But also this is the grandma who HAS called me Jay more often than not?? My mom's mom never picked it up, but I was astonished to hear my dad's mom was acting like this was some New Dramatic Change that she Hated and not a thing she's literally already been doing for, again, twenty entire years. Why are you suddenly making it weird! Last weekend Justin's stepmom mentioned seeing my mom at the hospital where mom works, and how she said something like 'yes I'm Jessica's mom-- wait, no, Jay, she hates it when I do that' and I just?? I literally don't, the only problem now is that people who know me won't know who the fuck you're talking about

all of this and I'm just. I am literally just sitting here. why are we inventing problems out of this two decades later. what is going on

I’ve never really talked about it, but SCP Philza’s gender gets weirder the longer I look at it. A conceptual/metaphorical being doesn’t necessarily have much use for a gender (unless human interpretation of the concept involves gender). Nearly all conceptuals encountered in Fault (mostly voidlings) use they/them or the occasional it/its, but Philza distinctly doesn’t. Very few conceptuals are powerful enough to create a physical body, which Philza did in order to become humanish. I think in that quest Phil found it convenient to have a gender when interacting with humans. And he mostly registers as male bc patriarchy and it made things easier, but also societal expressions of gender changed so much in human history so Philza doesn’t have a super firm grasp on it. And given how tied Philza’s physical form is to mental state and self perception, his body’s sex was pretty fluid over the millennia.

So Philza ends up as a genderless being that presents in a way that modern western society would read as conflicting gender markers, such as having a beard and long hair, deep voice and name ending in -a, etc. (Emphasis on characteristics being gendered based on customs, of COURSE.) I think it makes for an interesting contrast with scp Tubbo, who has multiple genders from the hivemind, but who presents with more stereotypical androgyny, ie lacking traditionally gendered characteristics.

ok i just saw this hc but i immediatly adopted it: hunter is trans and he was binding unsafely for a lot of time until darius (also trans) put a stop to it in the reunion that definitevely happened between LR and COTH and gave him a quickly put together temporal binder promising him that he would make him a proper one post DoU

Firstly anon I think I know exactly which comic you're referring to and second of all REAL I LOVE TRANSMASC HUNTER!!! All hunters are good, and I acknowledge that every interpretation of him has a lot of textual validity. He's got that link gender going on! Transmasc is just my fav bc my transmasc friends are attached to it <3

I don't have much/anything to add to this one bc I'm not transmasc and don't bind or anything (I fielded this ask to some friends before hand just to make sure I didn't say anything dumb) BUT- I do have this for you

[ID: two versions of a digital drawing of Hunter from the owl house. He stands with one on his hip looking off to the side. He's depicted in his costume from for the future, except his wolf shirt has been replaced by a binder. In the first version the binder is plain black, whereas in the second version it has a simple strawberry pattern on it. There is a note that (in the first version) reads "Hunter in the binder baby!!!" And (in the second version) "Hunter in the STRAWBERRY binder baby!!!". End ID]

OH GOD NEW CGCU VIDEO. LONG FORM. EMILY WOKERSON STORYLINE. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

ok back to my normal thoughts (with spoilers btw)

timothy bichboy is a submissive and breedable bottom 🤯 (are you surprised? i’m not)

they added xavier child (or childe? who knows this was written right after the vid was posted). wonder how the guy who kept suggesting him feels. elated, most likely. (i don’t know what i was expecting for xavier’s voice but it wasn’t this) he also seems…reasonable? kind of?

“Tim, shut your trap for 15 seconds.” not a healthy relationship core!! also every time emily calls timothy tim i have a heart attack since i think she’s talking about iddboy and not bichboy

the throwing your kid thing. seemed like it’d be a gag but it’s not and i like that cam is taking it seriously instead of being dismissive.

the way timothy backed down so quickly…

when timothy catches the baby, he says “got him!” or something like that. he could be saying “got em!”, but it’s unlikely. this is proof that the baby uses he/him pronouns (/j, i think it means the baby is male. we’ll see next saturday i guess)

about xavier showing up—does this mean frank snitched on emily about the baby tossing? or is ray and max’s deal finally coming into fruition? oh i hope it’s the latter dude that would be so interesting. more of ray’s sinister side (that doesn’t relate to his name) and max actually doing something bad instead of being a criminal. maybe max will eventually turn against ray, and put value on things other than money. i need max harm character development and ray cist death (cam discussed this in a live prior).

also. xavier. he’s wearing the gus lighter shirt. the same one as gus lighter. this is clearly foreshadowing new gus lighter video gus lighter video im going insane he’s actually my favorite character i love him so much you could never comprehend he is my savior my light in the darkness my hope my dreams my life i need him
