#transphobia warning

[ratbastarddotfuck]

“It/its” pronouns gotta be the most disgusting shit I ever heard of

anon's gonna be real fucked up when it hears about murder

Based off of my experience scrolling the trans tag on tumblr, posts featured are based off of real posts that I’ve seen (didn’t want to use screenshots or direct wording to avoid any potential harassment towards the original creators of the posts referenced.)

Didn’t specify a singular group of trans people in this cause I know that this type of vitriolic hatred happens in all directions, and I didn’t want to frame one group as “evil” or anything or any other group as “faultless”.

Istg if anyone uses this comic as an excuse to spread transphobia in any way I am going to get violent.

with the power of shokubutsu monogatari, you too can be a transphobe ✨

sorry if someone else has said this but i only just now saw the movie -- owen/isabel revisiting the pink opaque and seeing a declawed version of it is to me a sort of metaphor for the revisionist histories people will spin once you come out as trans. the vibe of "the ice cream man never tried to kill you, you were friends!" i feels like my mother telling me being trans came out of nowhere because i love dresses and rom coms etc when i was a little tomboy and she would punish me for it constantly, or the parents of trans femmes who would punish them for being feminine suddenly being like what are you talking about you love football and no i never called you a fag and told you to jump into traffic you snd have always been the best of friends s

The creator of Papa's Canibalia, Awful Cartoons for Awful Kids, has revealed themself to be a transphobe.

(Video can be found here- as a quick warning, it is a reimagining of the original Pico's School, so be wary of themes of school sh--tings, gore, and child d-ath present)

Obviously, I am not bringing this information to light as a means of getting anyone to harass/harm them. That shit is fucked up under most circumstances- we are better than that, folks.

The purpose behind this post is to bring awareness to the rest of the Papa Louie fandom who had little to no idea who they have been supporting all along, especially since a huge chunk of the PL fanbase does happen to consist of folks who are members of the LGBTQA+ community as well.

Please do stay safe, everyone; just block this creator and warn your peers of their recently exposed views, but do not pour fuel on the fire. What matters now more than ever is our sense of community, and we must stand by one another especially during these terrifying times.

*sighes* look, I'm sorry about the mis-pronoun thing. But there's no need to threaten me like that.

You wouldn't believe the HELL I'd been through with Twitter. I don't really wanna talk about it, it's too upsetting to remember. But the point is, you can't force someone to believe in something they don't. My beliefs are different, and that should be okay, as long as you are not being rude to me about.

You're lucky I really like this blog, so I'll forgive you this one time. But I'm warning you, right now. If you keep up this attitude, I'll report you for Bullying, and I'll NEVER read this blog again!

(I'm not weak, and I don't tolerate this kind of behavior)

Sir, I sent you a jokey png of my fursona pointing a photoshopped gun at you. That was not in any way a real threat.

This isn't about anyone's beliefs. This is about showing other people basic dignity. Using the wrong pronouns on a person is a denial of their personhood. It's saying "I know better than you do who you are." So I can't just ignore when you do that. Your comfort isn't more important than the dignity of all the trans and nonbinary people who will see that.

So your options are either to start getting comfortable with using people's correct pronouns... Or don't talk to me. Are we clear?

1 time this guy at a party (adult party, still a kickback but no drama or antics) was being kinda rude to me, which I zeroed in on cause I thought he was hot, but he was like...acting disgusted with me which like wtf we barely met and I look fire tonight...hadn't even done anything weird, had had half of 1 drink, was close friends with one of the people living there. dismissed it and continued to have a good time.

anyway way weeks latee one of my friends mentioned him in passing as "transphobic steve" and I was like "wait steve from the party with the mustache?" and he was like "yep" and I was like "he's transphobic?" and he was like "oh he's hella transphobic"

sometimes I do truly forget people dislike me not bc of anything I've done or said but because I'm queer and alt lol

how mouthwashing characters would react to you coming out as trans (masc)

Daisuke

he's genuinely the easiest person to come out to.

the most supportive and encouraging person on board, and tells you how grateful he is that you were comfortable enough to tell him.

absolute hype beast for you too tbh

especially since you're closest in age to him and you're working the same job, he's really encouraging even before you came out.

he already thought you were cool beforehand and saw your working proficiency as "like, really friggin' rad, dude," and that doesn't change afterwards.

he does slip in the occasional comment of how strong you are, or just little things that are quite affirming.

also the least likely to pry too far in terms of asking about surgeries and other gender affirming care. he respects your privacy and won't push if you don't bring it up first.

post-crash, nothing really changes. he still thinks you're awesome.

challenges you to do mouthwash shots. no gain. no bets. just guys being dudes.

rock, paper, scissors you (NO!) to see who has to go through the vent... and that's the last positive moment you share with him.

Swansea

okay, look

Swansea's old.

he doesn't quite understand how you could feel so alienated in your own body. he doesn't feel that way, why do you?

it's not to say that he doesn't accept or respect you, just that he'd never really considered that somebody could feel that way.

he does his best to make you feel included or feel like "one of the guys", it's really sweet.

secretly, he's just as grateful as Daisuke that you were comfortable telling him. it really does make him quite proud.

he is more confident in your abilities as his apprentice than Daisuke, but it doesn't really come across. it may accidentally come off as condescending, — always correcting the way your holding your tools, over explaining what you've got to do, — but it's just because he's excited to share something with you.

proud old dad Swansea <3

post-crash, he is very protective of you. he didn't fully believe you at first when you told him about Jimmy (explained below), but after his own talk with Anya, he puts significantly more stock in what you've been saying.

Curly

honestly, he's very neutral about being told

on one hand, he's quite surprised. on the other hand, he's not sure why you'd ever feel the need to tell him.

he really doesn't care what's going on with your genitals. he doesn't make a habit of asking. it's a bit too personal a piece of information, in his mind, to really consider sharing.

but, he respects that you probably have your reasons for telling him.

he doesn't change his way of treating you or referring to you, which is good. but when you mention as well that you'll have to be without a binder every couple of days, he's once again quite caught off guard. like, "oh wow, okay... anyway!"

all in all, very lukewarm.

post-crash, he still doesn't really think about your transition means. he's got more pressing things to worry about.

however, he overhears some of your chats with Anya and it really puts things into perspective for him. the extent of his friends abuses, the treatment you'd been given your entire life, the way Pony Express itself treats you...

he wishes he had done more

Anya

very similar to Curly, in the sense of she's quite surprised by the revelation. but she's significantly more prepared to accommodate your needs.

as the only nurse on board, these are the kinds of things she needs to be aware of. though she's never worked on a transgender patient before, she's definitely going to provide as safe an environment as she can whenever you're coming into medical.

suggests doing your t shot for you, if you've got a fear of needles.

definitely feels a little closer to you after you came out, since that technically means she's not the only female bodied person on board. especially since that means you would understand things that the others won't fully grasp.

she knows that you're a man, but feels more comfortable around you knowing you've experienced what it was like growing up expecting to become a woman.

generally, very supportive, we love her

post-crash, she feels like every day she's finding parallels between your experiences on Tulpar. finding common ground on the less than savory things you've both had to go through.

she didn't want to tell you about the pregnancy. telling Swansea was risky enough, but she knew that if you found out, you wouldn't just threaten to kill Jimmy.

the closest she got to telling you was on the day of her suicide when she implied some of what Jimmy had done to her, telling you that you're not alone. that whatever happened to the two of you, whatever happens to the two of you, that it's not your fault...

then she locks herself in medical.

Jimmy

...

yeah, he's disgusting.

immediately starts asking very inappropriate questions, about your body, about hormones, about surgeries, regardless on if you'd brought it up in the first place. he's the first to bring it up.

no understanding of personal privacy or boundaries.

everything you tell him about your transition is stored away in his mind to use against you eventually. you tell him you're ftm, all he hears is "I've got a pussy and tits I want to hide from you".

because he feels entitled to the female body.

immediately starts treating you differently. acting like the sexist pig he already is. leering at you every chance he can get, making any excuse to touch you, just straight up sexually harasses you.

once you snap at him, trying to show yourself as the wrong person to be targeting for that shit, he starts to be more subtle... for a couple of days.

he knows you can't do anything, he's the one with more power here. and he knows Curly can't and won't do anything. so, he's really got no reason in his mind to stop.

it doesn't matter that he's at least a decade older than you. you telling him about your situation is just leading him on!

thank God for your alliance with Swansea, pre and post crash...

post-crash, much like his treatment of Anya, his treatment of you gets much worse.

transphobia increases tenfold. feeling much more confident in challenging you to a physical fight or two, since you "want to be a man so bad".

notices how much closer you and Anya seem to be getting and makes snide remarks about "what are you ladies gossiping about, huh?" purely to antagonize you in particular. he doesn't necessarily view you as a woman, but he definitely doesn't see you as a man. just an object of his (repressed) sexual fantasies. "it's not gay if he looks like that"

after Anya's discovered, he notices how quickly and intensely you switch on him. normally, you wouldn't be above trying to have a civilized chat with him, but after he'd given no consideration to her, after he'd gotten Swansea to kill Daisuke... it's not just Swansea he'd have to run from trying to kill him.

unfortunately for him, you've got the resourcefulness of Swansea, and the energy to run, jump, climb and sneak around of Daisuke.

getting rid of you is no easy task. but he has to do it.

he has to take responsibility.
