Unfortunately, the comments about Kris are about what you’d expect.

i don’t want to talk about those though, as those are hardly arguments.

I want to talk about this particular reply, sent to someone rightfully being upset about someone misgendering Kris and referring to them as transfem.

★★☆☆☆ (2/5 stars)

condescending ass tone aside, the fandom has not, in fact, gotten it through its thick skull that characters referred to with they/them pronouns prefer they/them pronouns. we literally would not be here, having this conversation, if it did. this blog would not fucking exist if it did. not to mention that the original comment this reply was under literally referred to Kris with they/she.

how are you gonna look me in my red, allergy ridden eyes, and tell me the fandom knows they/them characters do in fact use they/them directly under a comment that does not fucking use they/them pronouns for a they/them character?

it’s not that Kris being called transfem is the issue here. as they said, being transfem and being they/them non-binary at the same time is possible

it’s the insistence on misgendering them that often happens in the same sentence as calling them transfem, as well as the frequent misconception that transfem is synonymous with being a binary trans woman or even just being amab.

so no, i don’t think you’re allowed to say Kris is transfem if you’re treating it as another word for trans woman.

Arguably, i don’t think you’re allowed to say Kris is transfem because considering their presentation in the actual fucking game they’re in, they don’t lean any particular direction. dare i say they’re neutral leaning. transneutral.

for the love of EVERYTHING. STOP FORGETTING THAT TRANSNEUTRAL IS AN OPTION.

BDS has an actual strategy. BDS' guide to their boycotting strategy has this infographic illustrating the exact point this post is about:

This is NOT mandatory, and of course there are causes that need much more help. So don't feel pressured! But if you happen to have a little to spare, I am getting tooth surgery this Friday and they charged me 2k upfront 😭 and then when I asked if it could be split, they told me I ran the risk of my jaw shifting if so 😭 but I have been in pain with these back molars for months and I've been stalling to pay for other things, so... I gotta just take the L but. Anything helps 🙏🏾 Much appreciated if you do 🙏🏾
