#not going to fucking main tag this with any like lgbt community stuff lmao

[suitablysolemn]

hot take but there are some people out there who don't fall into either the category of "transition surgery saved my life" OR "i regret getting transition surgery." i know its really easy and convenient to sort trans people into one of those two boxes for your trolley problems or whatever but it's actually a lot more complicated than that. hrt is a genetic grab bag--you're gonna have people who get zero traits they wanted and zero traits they hate, or youre going to get people with a little bit of both, or youre going to get people who dont like the changes that happened to their bodies but they don't regret or want to undo those changes either. gender affirming surgery runs the risk of complications and (depending on the surgery) hormonal changes that you may or may not have wanted or been equipped to deal with--and like before, that doesnt fall neatly into either the "love it" or the "hate it" box. some people want gender affirming surgery without it being related to a gender TRANSITION--gender affirming surgery and hrt are not just for trans people! moreover, depending on your body type some surgeries may not be POSSIBLE, and that also impacts "trans dissatisfaction" in a way that detransitioning/regretting specifically surgeries does not measure.

overall, it's a big fuckin' world out there. we're a big community with a lot of varied people who have varying opinions about their bodies. you can like some parts of your transition journey but hate others; you can feel totally neutral about it; you can even not UNDERSTAND how you feel about it, and all of those things are okay. and you can feel all of those things regardless of your gender identity. you can regret having surgery but still be trans, you can want/get surgery and be cis.....like i said, it's a big world out there and two neat little boxes just doesnt account for that! and it’s also not really a great thing to use people who regret having surgery as a way to point and go, "hey those people were WRONG about their bodies and that makes them bad people that we should throw under the bus while claiming that that supports trans rights."

that's all.

Creepypasta pride headcanons because its pride month

i dont think im gonna tag this since its just personal hcs and i rarely include my personal lgbt hcs in my normal posts shrugshrug.. asides nina, i use my personal hcs for nina in normal posts because those hcs are so deeply ingrained in how i perceive them LMAO notes: not an x reader post, VERY short post, as mentioned above the only character hcs that effect my main writing is ninas hcs the others so not control my normal x reader posts that get requested! if any characters have confirmed identities from their creators LET ME KNOW! i dont keep up with stuff outside of the original stories!

SLENDERMAN

doesnt really do labels and doesnt really know any. he does know that there are different identities but its not really anything that matters to him. responds to any pronouns though! grayromantic, or even aromantic, same with sexual attraction!

SPLENDORMAN

knows about identities and labels a bit thanks to interacting with humans! is fine with any pronouns but defaults to he/it/they! pansexual demiromantic! hip hip hooray!

TRENDERMAN

similar to splendor with the "knows identities and what they are/mean" thing. primarily uses he/him pronouns but sometimes uses it! attracted to men and masc presenting folk! asexual

JEFF THE KILLER

trans female to male, uses he/him pronouns! bisexual king, has no real preference i think... not much to say here! a lot of these are going to be short!

JANE THE KILLER

i hop between headcanoning her being lesbian or bisexual with a HEAVY lean to women. alternatively i can see her being a lesbian who IDs as bi/unaware that they arent actually attracted to men. uses she/her pronouns

BEN DROWNED

little guy

LAUGHING JACK

knows about labels and stuff but jack personally is unlabeled and just doesnt care about putting any names to how he feels. responds to any pronouns, perhaps GNC because he has many interests that are usually associated with both genders... attracted to all genders, develops crushes easily so i dont think he falls under the aro spectrum if he were to pick any labels

EYELESS JACK

unlabeled for the most part but he does have "maybe" identifiers to help communicate what he knows he likes/identifies as! uses he/they pronouns, demiromantic! attracted to both sexes, fine with dating all genders

LAUGHING JILL

demiromantic lesbian, demigirl me thinks! uses she/they/it pronouns

NINA THE KILLER

genderfluid and uses any pronouns at any given time, truly does not care how you refer to them! pansexual

MASKY

demiromantic and asexual uses any pronouns but tends to use he/it :)! no preference for gender in terms of dating

HOODIE

panromantic and demisexual, i think! him and masky are probably the least developed in terms of these sorts of hcs so these hcs are likely to change! uses he/it pronouns though tends to default to he/him

TICCI TOBY

uses just he/him pronouns, i think hes questioning a lot of his stuff and for the most part just labels himself as questioning. exploring isnt really his priority, he kind of just lets what feels right guide him when navigating relationships! can see him being a demiboy but not knowing of the label/being aware... but on the other hand he gives such trans man vibes.. double headcanon like jane- i can see toby as either or! we love multi sets of hcs in this house

Edit: Toby's confirmed bisexual let's fucking GOOOOO!! Question/unsure to bisexual pipeline by beloved + my personal experience (I no longer ID as bi BUT!!!!!)

I want to apologize for my rambling and butt kissing in advance haha. You're are simply one amazing writer and I really enjoy seeing you work. You and several other people have inspired create my own xeno/ terato headcanon/scenario page. . I want to make one specifically cater to the lgbt+ community as I feel there is a lack of representation for gender, romantic, and sexual attractions. I just want to know what you think of the idea and how I should proceed with starting a page.

I think it’s a good idea, however be prepared for a lot of people going “but what about [XYZ]?!?!?!?”. i’m not talking from personal experience, but one blog i follow who does a lot of LGBT monster stuff said that sometimes when they talk abt a certain subject, they lose some followers (granted, the blog STILL has 1,000+ followers, so it’s not really that big a deal- plus its the trash taking itself out LMAO)

sorry im rambling too (also thank you for letting me know- i LOVE hearing about how my writing inspires others :V)

I’d say go for it! just be sure to lay down the ground rules clearly, since SOME people may want to say “WELL IT ISNT IN THE RULES SO U HAVE TO” (hey, anyone remember THAT fiasco a couple weeks ago?)

as for the ‘starting a page’ thing: i dont know about other blogs, but when i made this blog, i made sure i liked how the theme layout was, i made ALL of my pages, reblogged some content, and then asked for promos from blogs i knew. granted, if you already have your own content: great! original content ALWAYS draws people in- heck, most of my stuff is original and everyone seems to love it

also be sure to know if you want it to be your main blog, or a side blog. i fucked up big time and made werewolfbeans a sideblog, so now i cant really change that and ive regretted it ever since :’^)

it also helps to TAG. EVERYTHING. YOU MAKE. i BELIEVE tumblr uses the FIRST TWENTY, but i go by the “first five” rule. teratophilia/xenophilia will MAKE SURE your stuff gets out in the main tag. then worry about what else you want to tag it as (monster boyfriend, monster girlfriend, etc)

this is already a little long so if you have any other questions, i ENCOURAGE you to either DM me on here, or talk to other terato blogs. remember: everyone loves something! and the community is always open to new content creators- no matter what the content is!
