Small warning about a serious transphobe in the community.
Her primary blog is @rainpath5466 (the link may not work as she has me blocked) and she also runs the blugs @helpbraixen , @ittakesavillagepmd , @askpmdorks , and @asklepidoptera. I think she may have a few more but I can’t remember them.
I’ll be explaining further and providing screenshots under the cut.
CW: transphobia and homophobia (obviously)
Rain and I were good friends for 3 years. I started seeing signs of homophobia a year ago but foolishly tried to ignore them thinking she would come around eventually. I was wrong. She is in fact so homophobic that she refused to watch a show i recommended to her, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts purely because it contained a gay character.
In June this year I began experimenting with she/her pronouns (and am now identifying as trans). When I made the announcement in a discord server I was in with her she messaged me explaining that she was against my decision to try she/her pronouns and refused to use them with me. She insisted she knew what was best for me because of her religion.
After this conversation she unfriended me and left every server I shared with her, even dropping out of a tabletop game we were in together.
A month later I was still holding onto some sort of feeble twisted hope that she could turn around on her transphobia and sent her an ask on tumblr. She responded with this.
Saying that she wouldn’t ‘enable’ me as if being trans is comparable to being an alcoholic or drug user, once again claimed to know what was best for me, and then hopped on her soap box.
Finally yesterday she essentially outed herself in public by stating her support for Lupisvulpes. For those who don’t know Lupisvulpes is a rather large twitter user who was recently exposed for their transphobia.
I only go into so much detail to prove without a doubt her beliefs.
Don’t interact with her. I would recommend just blocking her and unfollowing.
She uses the same username on every website she’s on so it’s easy to avoid her in the other places she uses.
“Oh, thanks for the help, I appreciate it...” She nods slightly as the Braixen comes over and begins helping her gather up her dropped things. The two nearly have everything gathered, when suddenly...
“HEY! You dumb little Litten!” She yells as a small stack of new paper is reduced to ash by the Pokemon, before they run off. “Yeah you better run...!” The Ninetales shouts to them as they scurry away. The girl sighs, composes herself again, before turning back to the Braixen from before.
“Sorry about that little outburst...” She says, scratching her head. “Thank you again for your help... even though that rude little cat burned some of the new paper I had just bought... Oh, and as for what it’s for, no I’m not an artist, but you could say I’m a form of writer.” She explains, chuckling slightly. “I sell little disposable spells that I write on these sheets of paper, half of it is for that, the other half is for... well, notes. I’m still a magic student, I’m not a master yet, you see.” She tells the shorter fox. That might explain the book or two she was carrying with her as well as the paper.
