it is me.

😈 You Already Know 🎀

Oh wow, that’s a really interesting question, and you’re right, it might upset some people. I should start by saying I love and support all those who really lean into the sissy thing without reservations. As always, you’re valid.

I myself definitely dip my toes into that pool, but I can sometimes have misgivings about it. I think some of the more demeaning sissy stuff can come across as a caricature of femininity in a way that’s… idk, like almost mean-spirited? Not saying that’s the intention, but it can feel that way anyway.

I think a lot of people also don’t know how to be cool about their fetishes and transgress boundaries in a way that can make people feel icky. That’s certainly not unique to sissies, but I think it colors people’s perceptions about sissies in a negative way because of a few bad apples.

And while I definitely see the appeal in certain aspects of sissydom, I also look at it from the perspective of a woman who might feel a bit hurt or attacked by some of the implications in certain sissy content that womanhood means being weak, worthless, or less than. And I don’t like that when I see it, because it can hurt whether or not there are any malicious intentions.

For a trans woman, it feels even worse. Here you are trying to live your life and be taken seriously as a human being, and there are these people who are contributing to a view that unfairly paints you as only transitioning for a fetish. That’s unbelievably frustrating, and you can probably imagine why some in the trans community have negative feelings when someone identifies as a sissy.

To the extent that some sissy content really leans into a message of dehumanization, I don’t like that much. Or if people are talking about imposing their sissy fantasies on others in their lives who haven’t consented to being a part of that, it bothers me.

So yes, some of the content associated with the sissy fetish can bother me sometimes. To be fair, though, that’s the case with a lot of communities besides the sissy community. As with everything, it’s important to keep in mind that it’s usually unfair to judge an entire community based on what you believe to be its worst aspects.

I try to lean away from content that degrades or looks down on femininity as a bad thing. Being feminine is not a bad thing, it's a very good thing! At the same time, certain of my kinks fall into that humiliation zone. The idea of being feminized--shown not to be a "real man"--for whatever reason, excites me and scratches an itch. I think each person needs to be able to draw some kind of a line between their fantasy and reality. But I acknowledge that it's not always an easy thing to do, and the concept of perpetuating stereotypes can be problematic. I have always tried to bridge that gap by trying to keep a sense of humor, letting it be known while fantasy is a part of the game, building up and supporting trans girls and femme bois is essential.

This is forever sissy girl 💕
