Could you elaborate a little more on your stance against sissies? I’m of the mindset that it isn't about "being a woman" that is humiliating, but rather "not being a man.” The way you show or demonstrate that someone is not a real man or isn’t man enough is by framing them in the opposing role.
Additionally, I usually go for the coquette, “cutesy” fashion rather than, say, high heels and makeup (though I’m not opposed to stuff like that!), because it undermines maturity for the ABDL aspect. Mature female fashion can be and is taken seriously, even in kink.
I also noticed you’re a big fan of Misfits of Toyland, whose latest and longest arc was all about forcefem. And although alot of that included characters finding themselves, most of it was about humiliation. Wouldn’t that contradict your ‘no sissies’ policy?
I’m not trying to be combative, I just want understanding into your perspective.
i don't really care about men's sensibilities in regard to this, nor do I care if it is purported to be about 'not being man enough.' you are basically telling a trans woman that 'hey I don't think of the transmisogyny kink as transmisogyny, so its okay.'
the word sissy is a slur. and sissy kink takes a mockery of becoming a woman rather than embracing it which forcefem hopes to achieve. whether u like it or not that is what sissy kink represents and claiming it otherwise is folly against the hordes of gifs, images, and captions that all paint being made to become a woman as something to be as something to be ashamed of, to mock, and to degrade. in other words, sissy kink is a perversion of the very real transmisogyny that me and many other girls experience daily, especially trans women of color.
you can still have forcefem and hyperfemininity if you really care about the aesthetics of some of the fashion, but the second you decide to take a mockery or a simulacrum of transfemininity I don't want anything to do with it. i don't want to see it, I don't want hear about it, and if I see it I will block you. I don't care who you are.
lastly, the misfits arc is more nuanced than you claim. note that Carol, the villain of this arc, is someone who harmed others, including the actual transfem character Pauline WHO SHE PERCEIVED AS A MAN FROM THE START. Carol transformed all these characters into women through coercion and force and framed becoming a woman for them as some kind of humiliating divine punishment for whatever sins she believes her victims committed. note also that Carol sees all the women she creates as lesser, and 'not real women' compared to her and till the very end refuses to acknowledge the harm she caused, up to calling Pauline a transphobic slur just before she gets offscreen'd.
What Carol did in the story is analogous to what sissy kink stands for, and it is used as a literary device to show the harm that it causes. Most of the people she harmed are unable to reconcile what she did to them, and thus fugue out. Others, despite the harm, chose to embrace being a woman, a rejection of what sissy kink stands for.
