Can't wait for the Tumblr Sexywoman Contest next year where Jax is put in that category since he's consider a transwoman now, thus eligible. And then he wins because he's male and because people want to prop up a TIM character.
It'll be like those TIMs in real life winning Woman of the Year titles.

TIMs have the biggest victim complex, I swear. No surprise since most of them are straight, white men using their "oppression" as a form of control. They really think Tumblr banned Gooseworx for just being a TIM who's well-known or something. (They still can't get over that one TIM that kept posting porn of himself and getting banned from Tumblr for breaking the rules. Lmao.)
Gooseworx deactivated his Reddit account because the users there were confused and disappointed that he said Jax and Pomni were the main characters (the responses weren't aggressive either). Why is it so crazy that he deactivated his Tumblr on his own? He probably received far more aggressive messages due to the finale and the "edgy" shit people discovered on his Twitter page.
Also, Tumblr now keeps an account for 30 days after deactivation. So if someone changes their mind, they can get their blog back. The deactivation string that should show up after a blog name probably won't show up until 30 days are up. He might even come back.
I wonder if Jax being a TIM will cause the popularity of funn/bunny to increase or decrease.
On one hand I don't think regular het shippers are interested in pretending Jax is a woman. If the TRA crowd harass them enough about it, those shippers may drop the ship altogether.
On the other hand, there's a decent amount of shippers who are happy they can claim the het ship is "actually super cool queer yuri!!!" now. I've also come across a few posts on here that were along the lines of "I didn't like funn/bunny at first, but now that Jax is a transwoman, I like it!"
Also apparently Goose said Jax would be okay with he or she pronouns. I guess it makes it easy to ignore the trans identity. Anyone could say say "Jax is a he/him butch transfem" while still seeing him as a regular man in their mind.
Most men don't give a damn about romance plotlines in any kind of substantial way. They just care that the main male character has a girlfriend/wife by the end or imply that he had sex with a woman at some point.
The men certainly don't have to like the female character. At best, most don't care about her. At worst, they actively hate the female character while still wanting her to be pair with the male character (Kat@ang shippers, S@susaku shippers). For them, she exists to validate the male character's manhood and to satisfy male power fantasies of "getting the girl".
So when I see men go to bat for a noncanon het ship like their life depends on it, it signifies that they treat the male character in the ship as a self-insert (they will usually see the male character as a "cool, powerful, gigachad"). For them, not having him get with the female character in the ship is such a deep personal offense to them that they'll throw a huge mantrum over it. They'll come up with delusional copes or cry that it was bad writing to not make their ship canon (Ereh/su shippers, and most recently Krus/e shippers).
Their fragile male egos get shattered from the ship not being canon and brings out incel insecurities.
Damnit! Delt@rune is starting to imply that stupid "transfem R@lsei" theory might be true. Why can't he just be a sweet, gentle, boy with feminine traits?
It's like any male creator who works with that one Lena TIM composer starts catching transitis in some form. It happened with the Celeste creator who came out as a TIM and retconned Madeline as a TIM. If Toby came out as a TIM too...it would be kinda weird since he doesn't like drawing too much attention to his personal life. But anything can happen.
Also, at least when the transfem thing was sorta kinda implied with Jax in ep 9, it was almost expected since the creator was already a TIM at the start of the show. He makes it no secret that Jax is his fav and I'm guessing he probably projected on him a lot. And the TIM Jax implications don't paint TIMs in the best light which is kinda amusing. Jax treated the women around him like shit because he's a poor closeted twanswoman? Well, it's your show Goose.

on my post about seeking fulfilling female friendships instead of draining, isolating het relationships, I keep seeing OSA women saying something along the lines of "It's not enough." I understand the craving¹ for romantic love, but men are not capable of giving you that. I'm sorry. The men out of Jane Austen novels are not real. Men like that do not exist. Men do not care about you. They do not respect you. They might pretend to, but they will turn on you in the end. Even if by some miracle you do wind up with "one of the good ones," and I'm being generous in saying there are maybe 100 of those on the planet, how do you know he's actually one of the good ones? Are you willing to bet your life on that? Your whole life? Finances, pets, health, wellbeing, sanity, housing, employment/schooling? What about your kids' lives, if you choose to reproduce with him?
Every single woman raped or abused or murdered by her intimate partner thought she was picking a good one, or at least that she could fix him. Change him. Every. Single. One. What makes you better than her? Smarter than her? Do you think she was stupid? What makes you think you are different? Do you think she just wasn't trying hard enough? That she didn't love him enough? Is your reasoning #NotAllMen?
I know you want to be loved. Men can't give you that. I'm sorry, but they can't. Getting angry with lesbians and other separatists for pointing this out to you does not change the cold, hard reality of that. We're all part of the radical feminist/rad-adjacent community here, right? Let's employ those critical thinking skills and really, really think about this.
How is that generous estimate of a ~0.000000000143% chance that you won this shitshow of a lottery worth the risk of the special hell that men visit on women every day²? Why do you think he's different? Could he have fabricated any indicators that he's different to entrap you³?
It's a very simple cost benefit analysis. The reality of it is that you can't access the romantic love you deserve either way. Men simply aren't capable of it. Why? The most optimistic answer is patriarchal socialization, which we all experience in one of two aggressively gendered ways. Think long and hard about whether or not the risk is worth it. I promise you, it's not, and I'm sorry it makes you defensive to hear it. Men simply do not see us as human.
¹Yes, it is a craving, not a need. No one ever died from lack of sex or romantic love.
²Again, men's choice to abuse is always, always men's fault. If you're going to jump down my throat accusing me of victim-blaming women, save your energy and devote it to developing reading comprehension instead.
³Yes, men do this on a massive scale. See Reddit for multitudinous examples. No, #NotAllMen are Redditors, but all men tolerate Redditors and their misogyny to some extent.
You're spot on with the post about MTF's reaction to yaoi. I know that critiques of male-centered behavior in fandom is common (although I, way too often, see people aside from TRAs using it as an excuse to just straight up be homophobic, alas) but yeah I just can hardly trust anyone who complains about it because you see that and you click their profile and it's a transbian malding at the fact that the majority woman/FTM website since the 2010s and has had a long-standing culture of popularizing M/M ships... has mostly M/M ships.
It really reminds me of those crusty men who mock women in whatever fandom they happen to share for being cringe and the kind of "why can't two men just be friends" sentiment. It just rubs me the wrong way. It feels like the MTFs are just throwing a fit because I guess their dash isn't filled with yuri enough (and, don't you control who you follow? can't you just mute any m/m tag and move on???) and the mere fact they can't control what the entire website is posting makes them angry. LMFAO it's just entitled and pathetic behavior.
Same with the childish "the MRA tboys love insisting this character is a transmasc so she's transfem now lolol cry about it!" like first of all we're talking about headcanons like the Thing you make up in your Head about a character for Fun. You are not changing anything about reality by insisting that this mediocre cishet male character (who you probably complain about if he's posted in an M/M ship lmao) is a transfem girl woman transmisogynized TMA. But they're so insidious with their bullying of FTMs over it that now it's a sitewide practice for a chunk of the trans userbase to just dismiss and mock any FTM headcanon to the point that a stupid ass comic whining about how someone interprets some fictional man a different way got like 10k notes or something. It's so childish that it's embarrassing. To treat literally playing with fictional characters like toys as activism because some FTM who's probably into men doesn't ship enough yuri or headcanon enough fake people as transbians LMFAO. But really it's just another excuse to demean female people and take up their space. Oh well.
Sorry for the passionate rant, I'm a fandom-active newly FTM separatist who's just really fed up with this petty playground bickering that has somehow become acceptable enough to the point where FTMs are harassed over it. Just, my God. Nothing is enough for you weirdos! What next, will you demand a tally for l*licon headcanons too otherwise it's twansmisogyny?
(I really like your blog, by the way.)
Yes, couldn't have put this better myself. It's all a bunch of nonsense and excuses for males bullying females. It's pretty funny because these are the people always insisting fiction and fantasy is just playing with toys and you can be as problematic as you want yet they get so vicious about their own bullshit LOL. Also bahahaha, lolicon headcanon tally is the next MTF frontier...
And thank you
As much as there is misogyny in fandom and in the widespread hate and ignoring of female characters in fiction, I do think a lot of this hate on yaoi and obsession of hot male characters is not truly about caring for female fictional characters and instead about making fun of the tastes and behaviors of the real women doing it (especially since a lot of these people complaining about it are MTF "transbians"...)
For every woman who doesn't care about female characters there is a dude who only cares about female characters if he can look at porn of them and one is infinitely more annoying than the other

support bi women who aren’t attracted to women 🌼
Straight women*
Something I've seen in fandom spaces sometimes is people saying "Shipping this canon lesbian with a man is lesbophobic...unless you see the man as transfem."
Soooo all anyone has to say is "I headcanon [male character] as a he/him butch transfem" on all their shipping content with a canon lesbian character and a male character, and they're good to go? Maybe place a trans and lesbian pin somewhere on the male character's clothing? Impressive loophole. And anyone who complains about it can be called transphobes.
walls of text about the supposed internalized misogyny of yaoi fangirls and nobody considers maybe heterosexual women who are attracted to men just like to see two men fuck. because they are attracted to men. and aren't interested in f/f pairings because they are not attracted to women. does anybody hear me. it's dark in here.
Bruh...what's with all the incestual shit in anime lately? Four times I have started watching an anime made in the 2020s then BAM! There's a female character who's disturbingly obsessed with her brother or male character who's disturbingly obsessed with his sister. Awful bonus: one anime I watched had incestual implications between an adult and child...
I keep seeing the thumbnail for that “how Mean Girls demonizes hyperfeminity” video on YouTube, and I don’t want to form an opinion on something that my bone-deep revulsion prevents me from watching, but Jesus Christ.
There was a post on here to that effect a few years ago, also listing Heathers, Clueless and High School Musical as examples of “demonized femininity” while Elle Woods’ femininity is celebrated, and aside from my constant aggravation by this reactionary trend of a non-issue where everyone is pretending being feminine is under attack and women being gnc/butch is somehow more accepted, I think it’s interesting to note here that the feminine characters in question here are demonized for being bullies. Specifically the kind of bully that terrorizes other girls for, among other things, not adhering sufficiently to standards of femininity in the social panopticon-like paradigm we frequently see where women socially punish and ostracize one another for not meeting patriarchal standards sufficiently. It happened offscreen, but Regina tormented Janis into a mental health crisis for dressing alt and (possibly) being a lesbian, hence incorrectly female. They bully other girls for being insufficiently pretty, thin, fashionable, white, heterosexual. (Interestingly, if you look at some of cinema’s famous male bullies, your Biff Tannens et cetera, there’s an equivalent of choosing targets due to perceived failures of masculinity!)
The Let Women Be Feminine brigade rushing to these bullies’ defense, claiming they're only demonized for femininity and frequently calling the characters targeted by the hyperfeminine bullies “NLOGs” (because, I suspect, they know they can’t quite get away with saying the d-word anymore like they might have in the early 2000s), is very telling. It’s an affirmation and agreement with the bullies, and the essentialist patriarchal standards they’ve internalized and imposed on others.

I'll never buy into the idea that it is misogynistic to not care about gender-conforming female characters. The role of "Femininity" is be the dumping ground for servicial and boring traits, but instead of acknowledging that, people have taken to claim it's anti-feminist to not find them interesting.
And of course people do subconsciously know that "feminine" are the boring traits and "masculine" are the interesting traits. Because it doesn't matter how you present a female character, if she has charisma, assertiveness, dominance, has ambitions of power or pursues knowledge, etc. then people WILL say she has a masculine personality, on the other hand if she's dainty, weak, servicial, only ambition is having children or taking care of others, etc. They will say she has a feminine personality. But if you say the latter is not interesting you will be accused of "hating women that behave like women" as if saying THAT isn't misogynistic. Even when the latter character has more going on for her that you enjoy, ppl will criticize you if you "ignore her feminine side" aka the boring stuff.
There will ALWAYS be countless people complaining any time a female character exists that rejects a feminine role, it's just that now people learned to call it misogynistic to pretend to be progressive. Like when ppl complain X character would rather go fight or work outside (or any "masculine" role) instead of doing "women's work" and they will wax poetics about how important to society this "women's work" is. No matter how many times you correctly point out women's labor is objectively beneficial to society, that changes nothing if it is BORING. Chances are the story IS about cool battles and the female character deciding to be part of it is simply her remaining where the camera is at.
Everyone's always like "give it up for the soft girls and the sweet girls in fiction, all we ever get is abrasive girls in fiction these days" but like that's not even true??? We just get badly written girls with no personality and whenever there IS a true abrasive girl she gets torn apart by everyone on the internet. And frankly the number of times I've seen people be "oh I'm so happy we've finally gotten a female character in touch with her feminine side" is making me think there's a lot more than you guys are letting on anyway can we all stop being weird and just demand well-written female characters of any kind.
