#i mean the toy soldier uses neopronouns

[majorshatterandhare]

I don’t know about you, but when I talk about Stranger I like to still refer to Brian’s character as being the wife. I love the idea of men being wives and women being husbands and non-binary people being whatever the fuck they want. Technically Brian could be playing a woman or nb, we don’t know, but I am of the belief that Brian is playing himself, so….

I love the idea of men being moms and women being dads, too. Especially gay trans people. Like trans man who gave birth to a child being the mom because that’s literally the role he took but that doesn’t change him from being a man at all. Five year old kid, pointing “that’s my mommy, isn’t he so cool!” Just. Fuck the idea that one person in the relationship needs to be the man and the other is the woman, but also queer people fucking up gender words gives me life. Fuck the idea that one person in a gay relationship can’t be more effeminate or more masculine because it “confirms” what homophobes think or that trans people can’t use words associated with their as/gab because it “confirms” what transphobes think. Queer people can do whatever they want.

Anyway, I love being trans and I love the mechs for their trans characters and gender fuckery and I love the mechs fandom because I don’t have to worry about transphones or even fucking exclusionist trans people. You know how many of us, here on tumblr, in this fandom use neopronouns?

TS is a transgender nonbinary person??!

yes! it was technically amab (see: the story of the toy soldier) and people seem to misgender it as a man  (see its wanted poster for one example) but it uses it/its pronouns (which are very common chosen neopronouns for nonbinary people), meaning it doesn’t confirm to the gender it was assigned! :D (it’s also used she/her and she/it at points, but i believe its pronouns were confirmed by either a mechanism or an early fan as it/its!)
