#the fact that a character is emotionally intelligent doesn't make him more relatable to AFAB people btw

I have a personal question, feel free to ignore, but how do you think being AFAB makes one relate to Dick Grayson more? I feel this way tbh. Or at least to people who are percieved or were percieved as female at some point in life (even if they aren't).
Dick Grayson is a fictional character and what you were assigned at birth doesn't "make" you relate to him any more or less, because what makes him the beloved character that he is aren't traits and/or experiences that are exclusive to any gender, assigned or perceived.
If you had the impression that more AFAB people relate to Dick and less AMAB people do, log off tumblr, go to a comic book store or a con or anywhere geeks gather, and check how many Dick Grayson fans who relate to him and love him are there. I promise you will notice that it's an even number between the different genders.
But anyway, I was assigned Duck at birth so what do I know?
#my asks#the fact that a character is emotionally intelligent doesn't make him more relatable to AFAB people btw#neither does the abuse he suffered at the hands of his found family#these are universal experiences everyone relates with#so if you expected me to say 'it's bc he has eldest daughter syndrome UwU' you knocked at the wrong door#AMAB kids are parentified and scapegoated and victimized exactly as mich as AFAB kids#there is just more stigma surrounding it#dick grayson
