No tags and a read-more cause I’m complaining about some dumb shit
Does it need to go into the tag? I made a similar post (albeit with a different flavor) about taking issue with people assuming gender interpretations of characters a while back but I also fully acknowledged that it was a ‘me’ problem and kept it out of the tags. AND kept it under a read-more since it was a long post (handy if you’re gonna go for the tl;dr AND the full long explanation in the same post, put the long bit under a read-more please).
Like. Okay, yeah, its shitty that people are tagging you with things that are giving you dysphoria, that’s not cool, and maybe we could get better about tagging it (though that idea does squick me a bit considering its touching a little on ‘can you tag [a literal queer identity] because that triggers me’ which. not like. super great?) but bringing it to the tag to complain about is just gonna make those of us that DO find gender euphoria in seeing Izzy as trans masc feel shitty about it.
Like, maybe just try blocking those of us who post about it? That’s what I do with trans fem Ed people, cause its not their problem its mine.
Also there’s nothing wrong with Con playing Izzy when trans Izzy is a HEADCANON. Its not canon, none of us are saying its canon, Con isn’t saying its canon when he shows his support for it. There’s no issue with him playing a trans man on tv because he ISN’T playing a trans man on tv.
Nobody IS saying every trans man is into a trans masc Izzy. We make jokes about how WE forget he’s cis because WE trans him so often but those jokes literally hinge on us knowing that OTHER people don’t always headcanon him as trans? You could have made this post 3000% less confrontational by just asking people not to tag you in those headcanons because it makes you dysphoric, all this extra stuff is just gonna make other people feel bad about how THEY identify with the character.
As for the whole uh. Wildly off-topic rant at the end there about menopause uh. Well.
1. While it might benefit trans dudes to look into how their body will change as they get older that’s not really something you go to fanfic for.
2. This is fanfic of a show where getting literally run-through on the left side of your body is a walk-off-able injury because ‘all the important bits are on the right’, nobody is really shooting for medical accuracy. We’re letting Roach chop titties off as a safe and sane form of top surgery. With a meat cleaver.
3. Fanfic is not sex ed. Fanfic is not sex ed. Fanfic is not sex ed. Its all well and good to say ‘I prefer the sex in my fic to be more realistic’ but not everybody wants that and not everybody enjoys that. Boat (lol) loads of lube is a fine thing to prefer/ask for but sometimes its just REALLY HOT if the pussy is 'making puddles’ all on its own accord.
#the dork is being a dork#not tagging izzy#like#i don't want to be mean about this because i do get it#i completely understand how some people being blasé about their headcanons and treating them like they're something everyone agrees with can#be super uncomfortable if you disagree with them AND how it can cause actual distress if its something about an identity that you share#again i have this issue with people hcing ed as trans fem but AGAIN that's MY issue and i'm not going to make it other people's#trans fem ed gives me dysphoria but i don't put it in the tags if i'm going to talk about it because its not my place to police how other#people talk about it unless they're talking directly to me about it#in which case a one on one 'hey this gives me dysphoria can you not talk to ME about this' should suffice#and if its something i see in the wild i just block#because i'm curating my space to be comfortable for me and i'm NOT making shared spaces uncomfortable/unwelcoming for other people#if its not something causing intentional harm then its on you to remove it from your spaces if it harms you
