Standalone update to my Less Gendered Faces in the style of @meowingcookie 's Baby Faces... but Less Gendered.
Download "Babyface" an addon for my Less-Gendered Faces (the rest of the set is here & this is the place you click to get all the other ages) "Unfortunately, it works."
This is JUST the baby faces for EVERY face other than Face 2 & Alien (which are already included in the original Less Gendered Set). This WILL NOT affect Sims that already exist in your game; any Townies spawned after you install this or any Sims created in CAS using my templates will have Babyface DNA to pass on.
You still need to download the rest of the Less Gendered face defaults set if you don't already have it & want it. Or if you just want mismatched little potato children, that can work too, as long as you don't have both my faces & @meowingcookie 's faces installed at the same time.
The first pic is the results of (recreated in my templates), Goopy Gilscarbo, Sandy Bruty, & Brandon Lillard having children together.
The second pic is the results of (recreated in my templates), Andrea Hogan, Komei Tellerman, & Jan Tellerman having children together.
The 3rd pic is what happens when the Sims from Pic 1 grow up & have babies with the Sims from Pic 2.
Babies range from "acceptably cute" to "that child looks like their parent (slightly derogatory)" to "that is an actual potato".
If you liked it, maybe Buy Me A Coffee.

I don't like the judo flip in moa as much as the next guy but in my eyes it's largely the result of rick not taking female violence half as seriously as male violence (a result of viewing women as weaker and inferior to men such that their acts of violence don't need to be taken as seriously) and not so much anything about annabeth herself. like I do genuinely feel that annabeth is a complex heroine and definitely one of the better ones in the realm of ya action-adventure fiction produced in the past 25 years but she is still a girl being written by a man and all I'm saying is that her writing clearly reflects that sometimes (more in tags)
#case in point: the amazons#hazel: you keep slaves????#kenzie: no. the men just know their place#like...... sure jan. the parody of amazon the company isn't actually using immoral labor the workers just like it that way 🥰#but that line about “knowing their place” would not fly the other way around#because women in power are not taken as seriously as a group of men dominating female workers would be#(we could talk about the futurama amazons too in this context because it's pretty much the same issue of female violence not#being taken seriously and played for laughs instead. iykyk)#do you guys know that trope of girls who are just comically aggressive and mean towards guys who barely reciprocate the energy#(like the majority of the female cast of naruto falls into this trope. again iykyk)#it's like a shallow attempt to write a strong female character by just making her an Angry mean nasty man-hater#or it's just a validation of some nerd's worldview that women are just always so mean towards men who never do anything wrong#and they definitely don't have power over women in society women are just Like that. for some reason#anyways if you couldn't tell by my pfp I'm an annabeth fan so I definitely don't mean this in an anti-annabeth way#just in a Critical of the way rick portrays women way#specifically women that he wants to come off as strong/powerful#and if you are a fellow annabeth stan and feel upset by this all I can say is that it isn't a bad thing to be critical of the way our faves#are written and in fact critical reading is a very important skill to exercise 👍#this is also why I'm annoyed by the “annabeth is abusive” allegations because it's like Ok she's clearly not intended to come off that way#so instead of meaninglessly antagonizing annabeth (who isn't real) or fans who enjoy her/the ship in its entirety#what can we glean about the flaws of the writing. what can we glean about biases of the author who wrote the damn thing#(not saying I even agree with the allegations to begin with because I Don't but yk)#this whole thing stems from social constructs around gender (everything else in the world does) i.e. public reception to female violence#where real world female violence isn't taken seriously so female criminals face less harsh punishments OR the other way around and female#cruelty is received as even more egregious than male cruelty because how dare a woman be anything but kind and nurturing and angelic#btw this is not a safe space to be anti percãbeth/annabeth in my notifs keep that to yourself bud 👍#rr crit#pjo hoo toa#percy jackson

Positioning Louis as the "Edwardian wife who becomes trapped by her husband" in a literal sense does no justice to analyzing his actual place and role as a Black man in his society and in his relationship with Lestat. Any interpretation or analysis you do of him when it comes to their relationship cannot be stripped of the racial aspect because it's constantly there. Texts analyzing Edwardian wives (and particularly ones this fandom loves to bring up) typically were white and the dissection of their place in societal rules are always viewed from the aspect of gender that is within these texts only allowed to white women, but never to Black men or even Black women. And gender and race become inseparable when you discuss the latter, no matter how people may view it.
This is why I can't take this approach to analyzing Louis' story seriously because if you don't consider the racial aspect in his relationship even to himself and his sexuality, what's the point? You're still centering the standards that were more placed upon white male/female couples than you're willing to look into the unique structure of Black families, religion, their view of homosexuality and how that sooner heavily influences Louis than the family's "need" for him to be sold off to an Edwardian husband. Even in Louis' own story, him and Claudia being Black is more centered on than any demeaning "housewife" comment he tries to go against from Claudia's perspective. She makes that comment once, whereas we have at least two episodes from Louis' perspective that have very blatant hints and showings of the racism he still suffers from under the Jim Crow era and how it affects his self-worth as well as his relationship with Lestat who doesn't seem to take into consideration how any of the blatant racial aggressions and objections still affect Louis and what he considers to be important to achieve in his own life.
Then there's also the pointed topic of Louis' position as a Black man who is a pimp to the Black women he has as sex workers, as well as how his position as a Black father affects Claudia, another Black girl. If you insist on Louis being centered as this "Edwardian white wife" who is confined by his implicit gender in his marriage, where does that leave Claudia and the blatant misogyny and disrespect she gets from both him and Lestat? Lestat who is her white father abuses her. Positioning Louis within the strict confines of "being her mother" doesn't do her any favors because he didn't hesitate to choke her when he was deeply emotionally distressed, nor does it make him look any better when he's fine with chopping up her diaries and then delivering them on a silver platter so that Daniel, another white man, can read and dissect. Even if he does this under the sole pretense of "doing right by her", how does it in any way help when he also can't face up to his failures towards her?
#interview with the vampire#claudia#louis de pointe du lac#i just feel like all these needless 'Lestat is the patriarchy' discussions; even when done in order to shield Louis#do him and Claudia no favors because y'all keep centering these weird strictly white standards in your interpretations#'Louis is an Edwardian wife' Louis is a Black man who was turned in 1910s Louisiana#the structural confines Edwardian wives were given really aren't the same when you take into consideration the racial segregation#of Louis' time; and I feel like the specific issues that Black men then faced when it came to 'proving' their worth when it comes to gender#are then just sidelined and forgotten as if those aren't the standards Louis grew up with#if you want to discuss Louis' placement in his relationship with Lestat it's kind of really heavy-handed even on the show#that he's a black man and that that heavily affects him foremostly in this relationship#also I'm so confused over this insane idea that Lestat is somehow the patriarchy while Louis is a woman and y'all say this unprompted#without considering how it looks when you call a gay black man a woman and a white bisexual man a guy#i feel like you can evade bad stereotypes of painting black men as overaggressive without veering off into the whole other side#while still sounding vaguely backhanded#and it doesn't make it any less weird when I see other non-black/white fans insist on this interpretation#it just comes off as y'all sooner being able to connect to Louis if you see him in a role typically embodied by white women#than to refer to the actual identity he has as a black gay man

First pass at the bingliu and bingqiu fusions
Bingliu has all of lqg’s confidence, lbh’s social graces, and both of their crippling need to avoid failure!
Bingqiu loves himself sooooo much, is pretty detached, and definitely thinks he’s better than everyone else. He’s just helping, why are you running away!
In the ficlet I said lqg doesn’t like interacting with BingQiu (or… sqq thinks that) but really it’s because BingQiu mercilessly flirts and teases him, is effortlessly stronger than him, and kind of projects ‘oh you sweet thing, I could just eat! you! up! [pinches cheeks]’ energy and this is such a contrast from his interactions with lbh and sqq that he just gets very awkward all the time about it.
#kamaetedraws#svsss#I guess haha#BingQiu#bingliu#fusion bingliushen au#BingQiu is like… when both of you want be wifey so bad…..#I don’t know if it comes across but bingqiu has a second face hiding a toothy mouth#like a mask…. you know… since both sqq and lbh mask their true selves#bingliu has a second pair of eyes that usually stay closed#they only open when they’re close to destabilizing#oooor when they really want to See something#things that amused me:#bingliu uses they/them pronouns bc lqg is [hand wave] about gender and lbh is [hyperventilates] about gender#so bingliu was like ‘split the difference’#bingqiu on the other hand uses he/him bc lbh and sqq have such a strong sense of who the other (is supposed to) be#that even though bingqiu is SO wife coded he’s gone back around to ‘dude who is so comfortable in his masculinity that he wears pink’ vibes#if sqq ever loosens up a single iota his fusion’s pronouns might change up but currently EVERY sqq fusion goes by he/him#funnily enough this contrasts og!sqq who fused and used they/the#less bc of gender and more that he has such an ingrained sense of self#that when he’s fused he conceptualises that as sharing….#so plural not neutral even though they are a singular being#sqq just hates himself a lot about it

first @yeehawgust prompt was 'gather the posse' and since I'm using this challenge as a way to explore new characters I just took that to mean "design the fuckers"
anyways, Whiskey and Tago. Tbh this pose was meant to be more a metaphor thing than literal, but it's making me strongly consider changing Whiskey to being a they/them(plural) instead of a they/them(singular).
#yeehawgust#Whiskey is an alabastor. Their parents own the local saloon where they and their mother work as barkeeps. their father also manages#a small ranch/farm that grows corn and has a decent number of cattle.#Tago is an outlaw whos just moving from town to town looking for honest work after spending too long doing the bidding of others#in big cities out to the east.#He doesn't like getting close to people. Literally. hes venomous and his touch is poisonous to the point of being lethal to most#Whiskey is the sort you really shouldn't get close too. They have a habit of driving their less constituted lovers insane.#they're a shape shifter who moves between faces/gender presentations as it suits them but they#cant do much about their coloration though. thats always the same and it irritates them to no end

Can't stand some of ya'll crosstaggers and take your weird takes seriously...
#meljay#its not even that popular but all the pushbaxk to prove something or as a gotcha... just weirdness all around#if you do care for her as you claim to be then talk about her outside her ship#never talk about mel but have a lot to say why things don't work between her and jayce#mel medarda#jayce talis#undermining her#now all of a sudden being fake and rewriting history and takes#as if ya'll werent undermining mel because of getting in the way of a certain ship#misogyny (it is about gender) and misogynoir (and race)#youre just trying to rub things in people's face cause 'you won' canon?#the care jayce has for mel isn't less than viktor.... you're not proving anything but your insecurity#cause ya'll make zero sense when you undervalue or undermine her and what she had with jayce and vice versa as if they aren't GROWN#need to block some for my own sanity on here#cause what do you mean the niche tags are better than the main one

good news my hair was really fun before I brushed it this morning. bad news I'm gonna have to figure out more than just "wash it and brush it iunno" eventually.
#returning to my teenage hair situation but with more deliberate gender this time#this is an experiment in several ways and I'm not convinced it's back to normal thickness but. well. still nice!#falderal speaks#my face#only just realised the filter makes my freckles/moles less visible. rude of it tbh

adding tme to my bio bc while on one hand announcing my birth sex makes me dysphoric on the other hand. some of you are misogynists
#im pretty sure the creator of the terms (and if not the creator at least some of the people who use them)#have acknowledged theres a lack of nuance. but theyre still important terms that point out an important distinction#bc like. trans women do face unique discrimination for being trans women. idk why this is a hot take#on the other hand i do think trans men also face unique discrimination. but its not nearly as systemic#“but what about poc” yeah the dynamics of gender change when regarding racial discrimination in society. this goes for all genders#*and all races#just bc racial discrimination exists doesn't mean the patriarchy isn't real??#anyways im trying to read more theory but tbh my decisions here are mostly based on the fact that#out of the people i know the transmasc to transfem ratio is like 8:1#and i talk to every transfem i meet i just think theres genuinely less people out as transfem. because being transfem is more dangerous#and like. i agree that unique discrimination against trans men exists but i also think yuo are all transmisogynists 💀#the transmisogyny and misogyny in general in these nb/masc circles is crazy like u guys are the reason terfs have such a huge following 💀#(idk that but theres a serious misogyny problem here)#anyways. i think vaspider blocked me months ago for having free palestine in bio 💀#which is fine his takes sucked#🪐

All of y'all pretending like heterosexual women are the only ones who experience misogyny, or experience the most misogyny, are not (just) being homophobic, you're being misogynistic.
You're denying women's sex based oppression is real or it's severity. So maybe sit down and shut up and realize that we are still women despite the fact that we are not sleeping with men. You have the ability to make the choice not to sleep with men too. It's not an inaction unique to homosexuals.
I will spread any feminist praxis I want, and if it's insulting for me to reiterate the ideals we preach in these spaces because I'm a homosexual then you can go ahead and be insulted. SSA women have just as much claim to these spaces as you do because we are women and these spaces are for fighting misogyny, which we all experience. It's not just for tackling the misogyny y'all are uncomfortable with, it's for tackling all of it. Get with the program, ladies.
#you don't have to like the fact that I sleep with women but you cannot act like I am not a woman#just as much right to be here and to preach the ideals radical feminists hold as you heterosexual women#I don't need to couch my language into something more appealing for you because I don't sleep with men#literally a problem you're choosing to perpetrate onto yourself#no one needs sex to survive nor romance it would be nice if you women would stop acting like they do.#the constant reiteration that women just naturally desire and need a romantic partner is misogyny it's propaganda#lily responds#radical feminism#radfems please touch#terfs please interact#radical feminists please touch#radical feminist#radical feminist theory#radfem lesbian#it doesn't become easier to be a good feminist as a lesbian you just aren't putting in the effort#I know this may come to a shock from you because you only hang out with lesbians in these faces but most women do expect we hold up#the gendered expectation for women and beauty standards just like it's expected of you#all socialized by the patriarchy on how women are supposed to look this doesn't change by being homosexual. we just make the effort not to#these ideas through our community cuz we're radfem homosexuals#maybe try to be less ignorant. that may help you be a better feminist overall

Might fuck around and start occasionally he/him-ing myself. Let the record show my pronouns are still she/they, im just saying shit
#it's weird cause like#i kinda like the idea of maybe being he/him a little bit#but not for people who know me as rowan#because the rowan version of me is already more androgynous#it's a less gendered name#you don't see my face#all the gender i have as rowan starts at a baseline of zero#i don't wanna be any pronouns and androgynous#i wanna be a non-cis woman#and when i do it to MYSELF im seeing the name chloe#im seeing the little girl i used to be and all the feminine ways i present#it's like. maybe sometimes. i would like to wear he/him in the way one might wear a fake mustache#but im just wearing it it's not something i AM

Why is Andromeda Island gay island. Look at the three of them in their clubbing armor.
#saint seiya#my reading and interpreting of saint seiya is very queer and occasionally defiant towards the source text (bc it's free & fun to do)#but in this case they do all look queerer than the others#and it's very easy to read andromeda as a trans woman esp with how neither she nor shun seemed all that bothered by her face reveal#they probably have less respect for the restrictive gendering of saints than the rest of the cast#also i want to believe that shun and andromeda have a codependent queer friendship instead of yet another uninspired m/f romance#chatterbones#and now back to college work :')

just had the most bizarre conversation with our hr manager. like bizarre doesn't feel like a strong enough word because what the actual fuck but yeah. call me baffled. call me flabbergasted.
#white men really do just walk through life like that huh. smile on their face and everything like everyone thinks the way they do#basically he was talking to me and the exec. dir. of the foundation i work for (both of us women) about how he doesn't really believe#women have unequal opportunities. like he thinks women (and anyone else who is supposedly 'opressed' by society) can do anything#as long as they put their mind to it!#all the data about unequal pay or women being hired less just aren't true. it just means they're not applying for those high ranking jobs#oh! and he also really thinks capitalism is the solution!#bc if you have a woman employee who 'kicks ass' as he put it. you're going to reward her for a job well done bc she's making you money#so even if it's really just a selfish money-making reason you're promoting her or whatever. it's ok that she's a woman bc she kicks ass#and like who cares about gender as long as you're kicking ass and making money bc capitalism!#i think i blacked out for half the convo bc i was so focused on keeping my mouth shut and not asking him out loud 'are u fucking stupid'#like truly the AUDACITY of white men!!!!! only they would believe 'oh as long as you put your mind to it you can do anything'#boom racism and sexism solved apparently! bc a white man says u just have to work hard!#good fucking grief#mik chats

When I do invoke femininity as a trans male, you might be surprised but I actually don't vibe as a lesbian, like in any sense. I might resemble one, like a big tough feinbergian butch fucking other butches, but it's not in any sense. I kind of feel like a fucking demonic precious straight woman. Like when trans men I wanna fuck make fools out of themselves and treat other trans and gay people like shit and only submit to their straight women partners and say ahhhh I'm so gay and invalidate their own gender to seem gay because on some level they know they do this for cishet women and they're a little guilty... Lesbians torturing themselves and wishing and wishing that a straight woman was gay, getting led on and never wising up... All accountability being deflected, people simultaneously reviling me for the evil shit straight women do but they still can't stop themselves coming back! Like the raw sexual power and abuse that a straight woman holds I can indeed carry that over to trans masculinity. Like why leave being a satanic underworld siren at being a woman.
#autoandrophilia#androphilia#this is that i feel like a gender demon thing im talking about#part of being a man is remembering i used being a man to open doors. i cant use the same thing to lock it.#being a man doesn't make me any less of a woman and vice versa. all that melts away in the face of my desire anyway#autogynephilia
