at tthe end of day, yeah enjoy the media how you want to enjoy it, but also, holding your hand while i say this, why are you in womantown if you don't like women?

So many people in this damn fandom are SO desperate to make the Umas into men. Like listen I do enjoy the occasional transmasc Taishin I do and I do enjoy my yaoi too but Jesus Christ can we have one thing that's for the gals. Also I don't know if it counts as a headcanon if it super explicitly goes against canon which is that male Umas do not exist lol

i am not saying don't hc umas as men. i am not saying don't hc umas as trans.

i think all interpretations of characters are valid. i don't care how much "evidence" there is in for it (i literally spend half of my time on here making posts about how teiguru is canon, i have no room to talk), or if it's based off a vibe, as long as it makes you happy, that's great. that being said, i also think it's important to look at your internal biases

if you cannot enjoy a female character unless she is a man, you need to check your biases. that's misogyny

Not Op but for me i hc quite a few characters as transmasc cause it makes me happy especially characters i strongly relate to ... would thqt be immoral?

You can do whatever you want, but be aware of the possible implications.

It's important to keep in mind that Uma Musume is still in its core *about women*, and trying to change that has implications about how one might see women. If someone (like the person in the original confession) can only enjoy a story if they gender swap most of the characters, that most likely means they are misogynistic. In the same way, if someone race swaps all black characters out of a story because "that makes it more relatable to them", that person is more likely than not a racist.

In the context of the original confession specifically, the "implication" in question tends to be "I don't like when a story is about women and want to make it about men". In your context, it seems you just want to be included/feel represented in something you like, and that's fine and not inherently immoral, but it's important to keep the "uma musume is about women" part in mind, because the issue starts when people begin trying to centralize men (or turn all the characters into men) on a woman centric story.

The most important part is: sometimes a story is just not about you. And if you want to be included, that's fine, but don't try to make it all about you, because that takes away from the people who are actually being represented in the story.

I personally think the phrasing of "you might reach an extent where you are taking away from women if you have too many indulgences" is.. a little odd

it is not immoral to want to see yourself in the media you interact with, that is a normal thing that most people do. what i'm saying is, every so often, it's important to check in and take stock of your favorite characters and look at the trends, and ask yourself why those trends exist.

not all trends are bad, like if most of the characters you like have a similar taste in clothing or they tend to be associated with fire, is that problematic? probably not, it's probably just something you enjoy. but there are other trends that you're going to have to examine more closely

for example, the reason why i have a problem with this anonymous confession is because it reads like the op is saying they only enjoy shipping male characters, so any characters they like have to be male. why do they have to be male? why can you not enjoy shipping female characters? what is so intrinsically different between shipping them as female characters vs shipping them as male characters that you cannot enjoy a character outside of your bias?

and it's not always internal biases that are to blame. sometimes, it's external biases. like, for me, the majority of the characters i like? white usamericans. why? because that is what is most readily available to me. why? racism and a bias against publishing stories not centered around the white usamerican identity. but i have to work against that bias and find more diverse creators and characters because diversity matters, i want to see more than just white usamerican characters, and supporting these creators is the only way these biases are going to change.

so, if most of the characters you like are one identity, why? is this something rooted in harmful ideologies that you need to work on?
