Anri of Astora is gender fluid, has had extensive vocal training, and never uses the same gender as someone they are talking to.

bigender yoshikage kira hcs 🫶

- kira's view of gender is very binary. interesting that he has a standard for women is to be hairless, meanwhile he can't stand having body hair on himself. very interesting

- i don't think kira would have the vocabulary to know about his identity rn, and if he eventually did, he would treat it as in-depth research, almost like a hobby. morbid curiosity, he'd claim

- as an extension of that "hobby" mindset, i think using killer queen as an outlet for his femininity would act as a barrier in his mind to express himself without having to actually apply it to Himself (the gender euphoria of using she/her for killer queen bc kira wouldn’t admit to it otherwise)

- KILLER QUEEN IS HER TRANSONA.

- the most heterosexual lesbian you will ever meet…

- the idea of transphobic transgender kira is so funny to me knowing her other values. she won't remember your pronouns bc she will not care to refer to you in general, but even if she did, any pronouns besides he or she are “gramatically incorrect and/or superfluous.” okay multi-pronoun user

- would claim that he doesn't need external validation for his gender and that it's nobody's business, but it's rly due to internalized transphobia and his fear of sticking out that he doesn't leave the closet :(

- she has her moments though. maybe one day, she's painting her “girlfriend's" nails a lovely shade of purple when she realizes it goes with her suit. she applies the polish to her own nails to test the theory, and sure enough, it's a perfect match. she tries not to think about why it disappoints her to wipe it off before work

- in his mind, it was never a feeling of choosing one or the other but rather the feeling of being incomplete. kira is someone who rly values routine and balance, so i imagine that this applies to gender too, in that masculinity and feminity are two sides of the same coin to him. i don't think he would want to medically transition even if that were an option, but his gender expression is very much real and tangible to him, even in the most seemingly inperceptible ways

- i think that she started questioning after getting KQ but never felt the urge to seek out answers or dig deep into it once she started being able to give herself freedom of expression at home. it only became a problem when she had to hide as kosaku and was once again having to keep those parts of herself hidden (i'm sorry that this follows so many story beats of kira's murder activities, it's not meant to be a one-to-one parallel 😭 just a result of the freedom vs repression of canon circumstances)

- HOWEVER smth that diverges from canon is that i think there's a way around kira's gender expression now that he doesn't have to perform in secret but rather express himself through a different outlet once shinobu becomes part of the equation. kosaku tends to wear dark/dull-colored clothing whereas kira is more inclined towards coloful pastels. i think shinobu would pick up on this difference and start having them wear matching outfits, slowly making his closet more feminine. kira would freak out at first thinking it was some kind of test that he had slipped up on, but shinobu would only lean harder into it bc honestly she just wants to bond with her husbandwife over smth as simple as clothes. it's the first time kira's even been called pretty. he doesn't protest

- when kira gets used to having someone recognize and even encourage her gender expression, i think this would be when she starts being comfortable enough to talk abt it and recognize it as more than just a feeling. she and shinobu might even have a conversation (probably initiated by shinobu through unsubtle questions that kira was too embarrassed to dance around and would rather address head on)

- as big of a revelation as this is for kira, i don't think much would change. he still prefers to do things as they always were and doesn't rly feel like he misses out on much when he goes out in his suit and gets called masc terms; in fact, it's a comfortable familiarity. but every time he puts on the subtle perfume that shinobu got for him, well, that becomes a familiar type of comfort for him too

- shinobu: “no wonder kosaku was so repressed before, he's been so much more expressive now that she's come out of the closet ^__^”

- this is how we can make the babygirl kira agenda real.

HELP ALL OF MY FRIENDS ARE DISOWNING ME BECAUSE I SIMP FOR SOME SILLY LIL TURTLE GUYSSSSSS

My ROTTMNT headcanons and explanations!

Donnie: Aroace, Agender, He/Him

Donnie always perceived gender differently than others. He never understood why certain colors or articles of clothing were for girls and some were for boys. He never really questioned his gender, comfortable with He/Him pronouns but not minding any others. He happily cross dresses for special occasions or when Mikey wants to, though is most commonly seen in lounge wear when not doing hero work/tech work.

Mikey: Pan, Genderfluid, Any/All

Mikey never really cared as to who he dated as long as they were nice and supported him and his brothers. Mikey also, like Donnie, always perceived gender differently, though rather than how Donnie took it, Mikey figured he was actually more comfortable with She/Her or They/Them pronouns depending on the day!

Leo: Gay, Trans (FTM), He/They

My guy grew up crushing on dudes but then found out it was more so gender envy then a crush, coming out as trans at 11 (though he mainly wore masculine clothes and used masculine terms because of his brothers). He then also found out "My Guy, I'm gay as hell for [Blank Actor]"

Raph: Panromantic, Ace, Non-Binary

Raph used He/Him for his whole life until they turned 13 and found out what being non-binary was and came out as soon as possible. They never really had any desire to have a relationship romantic or platonic until they had a crush on some random Yokai and figured, "I'll just be labeled Panromantic" but they're still questioning it!

*HOLDS THIS UP ENTHUSIASTICALLY* they are both yes no and all and I love them very much

[moron-hassaikai-and-more]

Here have some Shei Hassakai gender + sexuality headcannons.

Overhaul: gay, he/him pronouns

Chrono: Homoflexible, trans FtM, he/they pronouns

Nemoto: panromantic, asexual or Aroace, I’m not 100% yet, Demiboy, he/him pronouns.

Deidoro: He’s a confusing one. Me and my bf have dubbed it as jokesexual where he’s just whatever’s funniest at the time. So probably Pan but just says he’s different things as jokes. he/they pronouns but no preference between them.

Setsuno: Bisexual, questioning genderfluid, Amab, any pronouns but not just he/him, she/her, they/them, no no no, you could use eeby/deeby pronouns for this fucker and he would not bat an eye.

Hojo: Questioning gay, he/him

Tabe: probably gay, Asexual, he/him but tbh, he’d just go by whatever everyone called him. He’s too baby to understand gender properly.

Tengai: Gay, Greyromantic, asexual, agender he/it pronouns.

Rappa: Honestly, he’s never thought about it before. He really doesn’t give a shit.

Katsukame: Pansexual, he/him pronouns. His mother was trans and dating another woman tho so he’s a huge trans ally.

Bonus:

Pops: Bisexual but hasn’t realised, thinks all men find other men attractive, he/him.

Luz

Luz is canonically bi. that could not be more clear.

but gender wise? I like to think they're genderfluid

[genshintwstfan]

Headcannon: Ciel is gender fluid. That or he doesn’t really care for the concept of gender. Like for example

Guy: I wanna wear a dress

Ciel: Okay? Good for you? Why are you telling me?

[headcanontheshitoutofsoulsborne]

Miquella is non binary.

[urmomschocolatemilk]

I 🩷 bikers

Biker!Simon who’s tatted uppp. He’s rolling up his sleeves while he rides to let everyone get a look at his muscly arms laced with inked designs because yes, he does want to show off

Biker!Simon who's rolling up next to you at a red light, head turning while he thrums his fingers on the seat under him. He can feel your heated gaze through your window.

Biker!Simon who flips open his visor and lets his eyes find yours. He wants you to know that he sees you staring and he's staring right back at you

Biker!Simon who passes his phone to you with the new contact sheet open on his screen, ready for you to fill out

Biker!Simon who trashes on the TikTok bikers and calls them cornballs but doesn’t hesitate to send you photos of him in a compression shirt and helmet at any chance he gets

Biker!Simon who buys you a helmet before your first date, and takes you home. And no matter how much you beg him that night, he refuses to go above sixty on the highway because he why would he ever put his girl at risk like that?

[italktoomuchxd]

Maybe because he grew up in a religious family, maybe because he’s not really in physical touch, but sex is a big thing for Simon Riley.

He never had a one-night stand or a relationship; that's a big thing for him… he doesn't want any exes or something. He wants to directly marry his first love; that's why he's acting like it's rocket science.

But when he met you… oh God, he knew you were the one… you cute thing! He started to spend some time with you. You guys grew closer and closer.

At first, you thought he was a strange man, just a big man; What could he want from you? But when it started raining while you were on a date, you had to go to his house. You were a little scared when he handed you dry clothes and a blanket, turned on your favorite show and you guys actually watched the show you knew he was the one too.

But he's unstoppable when you guys got married...
