#tw genderbends

I thought trans and genderbends were the same? I mean... technically it's just bending your gender.

I think these will answer your question:

Also I think you need to recognize that your statement kinda reads as equating real identities and real people with a fanfic/fanart trope. If you are in fact saying that I hope you realize that’s offensive... Trans people don’t exist for your entertainment. 

The reason I started about talking about genderbends in the first place was in relation to my rules. I’m not here to argue about it. If you have a different opinion than me, that’s fine. If you don’t like my thoughts about it, don’t interact with me. It’s that simple. Like 50000000 people RP batman you don’t have to rp with me.

Imagine taking she ra, a show made by a lesbian and one of the few shows that has diverse, developed female characters, and making g*nderb*nds of it

one last note on genderbends --

My rule on them is LITERALLY this:

When it comes to following genderbends I will do so on an extremely SELECTIVE basis. I don’t hate people who make genderbends and I know that not everyone who has a genderbent muse is transphobic but because of personal experiences I’ve had plus the fact I personally agree with the points made in this post I will rarely follow genderbends back. I am more inclined to follow genderbends back if I know them through a friend of a friend, they are someone I have been RPing with for a while, the mun is an ally or the mun is nonbinary or trans.

A few & important related notes:

 I’m currently following two genderbend blogs right now. For me that’s a comfortable number and I’m not really looking to expand that number anytime soon. I think for now I’m going to pass on following more genderbends for the time being. There a lot of talented RPers in this fandom so I’m sure you can find another Batman RPer to interact with.You can find more Batman rpers by checking out https://dcmlist.tumblr.com/. 

I’m currently living in quarantine with someone with memory issues. Even if I was comfortable coming out to her as being nonbinary/demiboy/trans (which I’m not because I have reason to believe she is transphobic), I’d have to come out to her EVERY SINGLE DAY because she has short term memory issues. 

I have (1) family member who supports and actually refers to me correctly. And I don’t get to talk to her much because she’s doing quarantine with her girlfriend.

Most of the jobs I’ve worked at I have had to stay closeted out of safety. I’ve literally had coworkers and supervisors make transphobic jokes around me before.

A professor I currently have is like pretend accepting of trans people and misgenders me CONSTANTLY.

And as survivor of emotional abuse I’ve spent my ENTIRE LIFE letting people make me uncomfortable or treat me like shit just so THEY could do what they want and do what makes THEM happy. I let them do what they want at the cost of my own comfort. 

Tumblr is one of the few places I have control over who I come into contact with and what content I’m exposed to. I have every right to have the rule I have about genderbends. If you disagree, you can agree to disagree or you can unfollow me. Your choice.

Honestly I think one of the reasons I don’t normally interact with genderbends is people always blow arguments about them out of proportion. Read my rules. Respect them. Respect trans people and move on jesus christ.

//hi I was checking out your blog. Read your rules. I was wondering if you consider genderbend muses transphobic or not? I have an oc who from an alt earth is a different gender than my main earth verse. I apologize in advance if my question is triggering. Thanks for your time

Hey there. Thank you for asking. For the most part when it comes to genderbends I agree with this post. I updated my rules recently to help clarify my thoughts on this issue. I don’t hate people who make genderbends and I know that not everyone who has a genderbent muse is transphobic but because of personal experiences I’ve had plus the fact I personally agree with the points made in the post I linked to earlier, I rarely follow genderbends back. I am more inclined to follow genderbends back if I know them through a friend of a friend, they are someone I have been RPing with for a while, the mun is an ally or the mun is nonbinary or trans.

On a related note, I’m currently following two genderbend blogs right now. For me that’s a comfortable number and I’m not really looking to expand that number anytime soon. I think for now I’m going to pass on following more genderbends, whether it’s you or someone else. There a lot of talented RPers in this fandom so I’m sure you can find another Batman RPer to interact with. If I were you I’d look under the Bruce Wayne section on https://dcmlist.tumblr.com/. Thanks again for asking and happy RPing!

How can you accept genderbends theyre transphobic!!

 I am transgender, ftm. But without genderbending during the old days on neopets and gaiaonline I’d have never realizing transgendering was a thing. So as a result, I allow such if they’re done well. Arguably, some games actually have canon genderbends too (pokémon main characters for example) -- but I do understand the stigma against them. I will happily tag any interactions with genderbends, but since I rp’d them and they helped me on my journey of self-discovery I will never be against them, I am truly sorry if this upsets you.
