#i don't source a lot of the anti b/t ones because i don't want people sending them hate

“You don’t find it you make it.” Aka what Buddie have been doing for years now. They keep trying to take everything that’s Buddies and give it to B/T. I saw a gifset the other day comparing the hospital kiss to Buck almost dying from the lightning strike and being rushed into the hospital. They had literally cut Eddie out of all the hospital scenes. As if Eddie hadn't been the one to save Buck's life, push his own captain out of the way to try and get to him, help keep his heart pumping, and then yell at the hospital staff to do more because he couldn't follow Buck in the back. It's just ship what you want to ship but you will never be able to downplay the importance of Eddie in Buck's life.

I'm a switch/verse shipper but I do notice how some verse shippers have been using verse as a moral high ground. For me, in the anime community, it's been used as an anti-fujo or anti-seme/uke rhetoric. But tagging is a different case. It depends on the fandom culture and I never expected the majority of the English-speaking sites like Ao3 to tag T/B, tbh. I wish, but I'm not so uppity about it.

I agree, though. I'm a verse shipper but even I know there tend to be leanings (to verse shippers it's more a spectrum instead of a rigid binary option). Just that most verse shippers don't mind moving the scale. There are, but not many, who actively switch the ships and try out different dynamics. They are usually smut or PWP writers but generally people write stories with plot and have only one or a few sex scenes nestled in between.

The seme/uke hate is ironic since some people will still use the classic domtop-subbottom dynamic, they will just argue that character A is not a subbottom like "what most people HC", but character B instead, followed by saying how it's better and progressive (esp if the alleged status quo of the "bottom" was a character with shorter, smaller, or feminine features). The whole, "I'm different and better" attitude irks me. You like a dynamic, so what? No one's interpretation is better than the other. We're all fans of the same characters.

Ao3 is dominated by short and smutty fics, so I get the frustration. I also wish people would tag better but it depends on the general understanding of T/B in your fandom.

I always tag my T/B but I've uploaded a PWP with no tag because it has no anal. Since I majorly write MLM, I BARELY tag who's the dom and who's the sub unless it's for peculiar dynamics like "power bottom [A]", "bratty bottom [B]" or "stone top [C]" and even then, it's only for very obvious D/S and I don't really write BDSM.

I know my leanings, I know my preferences, but I still think my readers will have to understand how I characterize them by reading the story themselves. Because a character has lots of nuance. A character who I often write as a bottom might act more dominant and jagged, very masculine sometimes, but I'm not against feminine or submissive bottoms and I have ships with both character types. Most characters in my ships have both feminine and masculine traits, a lot are GNC or enby-coded to me, and they have various roles and traits that makes it hard to box them into two or four categories. It all depends on my relationship with canon.

I usually use canon proof, like their backstory or confirmed character trait by the creator, to write but I have a ship where I reject canon because the writing sucked and I prefer how other fan authors wrote it. Fan to canon relationships are very determental.

I know Bucky and though I've never encountered that side of the fandom (maybe because I don't ship stucky), I can imagine what you are experiencing. I know he is really pretty and pretty characters tend to bottom more. Steve is also handsome but I know people tend to profile through facial features first before diving into personality. Next, most people love to woobify a difficult and traumatized character. Some woobification turns to feminization even though there is no canon proof Bucky has a feminine side, at least not as far as I know (I'm not deep into Marvel). There's also the fact that a lot of people project their own IRL experience and personal preference in their ships. Maybe they relate to Bucky and want to imagine themselves as Bucky getting rammed by Steve and basing Bucky's personality from themselves. No harm in that, I too use my irl experiences as fic reference almost all the time, I just have to know when to separate myself from the character.

I'm not surprised if some people don't realize or won't admit they are writing OOC!Bucky or Fanon!Bucky because there are so many who are used to fanon interpretation or even rejected some canon interpretations.

Between getting fed canon content once or twice every few months vs reading 3-5 stucky fics every day almost 24hrs, do you think some people won't get used to fanon versions more? It's usually this case.

I personally like Canon!Bucky just fine so I obviously only want to read Bucky with that flavor but lately I haven't been reading much. So if I encounter a fic that's slightly different, I'll get so bamboozled and my brain will be like, "since when??" even though that fic has been there for a few years.

If there are more stucky fics you don't like, I suggest writing for yourself instead of asking other fans to change, unless they want to.

hi, you can call me kyle. i am 21, an autist, detransitioned, a lesbian, and an agnostic jew. i am not going to chat with you/be your friend if you hate jews, post blood libels, calls for the deaths/displacement of half of all living jews, or subject jews to a litmus test to see if you get to hate us.

this blog is a personal/main blog. it includes a lot of political, especially feminist stuff. i post about my various mental illnesses sometimes, and sometimes i repeat myself without meaning to because autistic and bad memory. besides that, typical tungl blog. silly thoughts and life experiences and opinions and shitposts, all that. also, i talk a lot in the tags, sorry lol

@normal-about-dinosaurs is my art sideblog. if you follow this blog or reblog any of my art i will cry (gratefully). you are welcome to send requests of random things for me to draw, tv stuff, animals, etc.

@youknowihadtodoittothem is my evidence/resources/sources sideblog. i don't make personal posts there

i don't call people slurs (including the t slur), and i might block you if you use the r slur. i don't really consider "troon" a slur but still don't say it often, and i don't use the b slur, or the words wh*re, sl*t, or similar.

"proshippers" (people who like/are ok with fictional cp), lolicons (pedophiles), etc, DNI. i am serious and this is really one of my only major account boundaries. if you think fictional cp is okay, you are a pedophile apologist and enabler.

other major account boundary: please no minors following me, i'm not here to be kid-friendly. i will still attempt to tag nudity/nsfw content as such. also, sometimes i post about weed or other drugs, this will generally be tagged as '#drug /' if it bothers you. i don't drink, smoke, or do any hard drugs. sometimes i post about my family/piece of shit father, will try to tag as '#unfather'.

more about below - beliefs, some interests, a couple other sideblogs - it's not vital information nor super long

my beliefs solidly align with radical feminism, and i try to live my life by it as much as possible. anti makeup, cosmetic hair removal, femininity. i'm not anti-natalist and i don't want humans to go extinct. abortion is awesome and should always be safe and free, no woman should be forced into motherhood or have her body used against her will. i/my blogs are crypto radfem/gc safe, usually open to discuss beliefs with civility.

i am pro female and lesbian separatism, and i'll never recommend a woman start dating a man, all women deserve support exiting abusive relationships. no woman deserves abuse or misogyny, including women who are bad people and who you disagree with.

i don't hate trans people, i'm friends with some and care quite a bit about them. i use sex-based pronouns as much as possible, i don't "misgender" my friends to their faces because i don't want to upset them. they knew me while i was transitioning and know that i'm detransitioned now. i am a gender abolitionist.

males do not and cannot face oppression for being female, thus they are not included in feminism, the movement for female liberation. even the most passing male trans people will never face true misogyny. i am generally against transition (including HRT) and other cosmetic surgery, it is too dangerous/risky and promotes harmful attitudes towards our bodies. i am pro-reconstructive surgery/treatments, even though they may not truly restore what was lost or damaged.

i am generally anti-BDSM, i don't think "because it gets me/them off" is an excuse to abuse your partner. i don't think it's much better when it's SSA women. i also don't think it's good to simulate or fetishize pedophilia, racism, incest, abuse, or any of the other bad things that much of kink involves.

i am strongly against letting pets, especially cats, outdoors unsupervised, whether they usually live indoors or outdoors. i am pro euthanasia/elimination programs for feral cat colonies, i really dislike preferential treatment for domesticated animals when they're causing harm. i am not against pets or domestication, i have a few exotic pets myself (reptiles and inverts). i am not vegan, but not really anti-vegan either, i just don't think eating other animals is morally wrong. farmed animals should absolutely have better welfare and quality of life, and agriculture needs environmental protection reforms.

detrans qualifiers: had double-incision double mastectomy shortly after turning 17, was on testosterone for 16 months, starting a month before i turned 18. my voice dropped and i did pass at least to some strangers. i'm still GNC and get sir'd sometimes.

mild-moderate europhobe, sorry ik there's some cool stuff but way too many european countries are fine with pedophilia and rape (esp prostitution). also what the fuck is with all the countries with an age of consent of like 14. and the netherlands' special little child rapist olympian (steven van de velde)

DMs and asks are usually open, and i don't mind DMs at all as long as you're not being a creep/you're not a creepy male. response may be delayed, probably because i'm unsure how to respond, or it's something hard to answer, sorry :[

hate anons generally go unanswered, unless they're a good example of a pattern of unhinged/bigoted behavior - such as anons calling me slurs, claiming i'm lying about being detransitioned or that i was never "really" trans to begin with. or if they're really stupid and funny.

some of my interests:

pokemon, bugs, plants, marine life (usually inverts), reptiles, archosaurs, and drugs (especially psychedelics). i like south park and iasip. and 'the boys' (show) apparently. a variety of pc and switch games such as deep rock, path of titans, lethal company, and splatoon. if we have shared interests (especially games!) please feel free to dm and start a conversation about it!! i am genuinely just here to learn, listen, make connections/friends, share my experiences/thoughts on various things, post art, and have fun/get a little silly.

@touchingsomegrass is my nature/plant aesthetic sideblog

@wholegrainoats is my happy place/interest only sideblog, so bugs, reptiles, drugs, stuff like that
