📚 Megathread Trans-made Media - Stories about genderspecials, by genderspecials

[Frogget-me-not]

Does anyone know what the creator looks like? Inb4 it's a self insert.

Addendum to my previous post, I found his fursona:

Here’s a drawing of Melody he did, for comparison.



Not the same species but his art style is so generic that 90% of his animals have the same snout shape. Note how similar Melody looks to the front view below.



His fursona also got a cameo in the new sonic reboot comic. Go figure.


I don’t think it’s necessarily a fat fetish, but a combination of having a blobby cal-arts art style and him probably weighing 300+ pounds and wanting to represent his True Self (tm) (because apparently turning into a woman is an easier change than weight loss). And you get body positivity points for validating all the other fat troons if you design some chubby trans characters.

But then again we found out that the guy who put his fat dragon fursona into Undertale definitely was a fat fetishist, so maybe I’m giving Mr. Bobby too much leeway.

Edit: oh god I just noticed he put his fursona in ultra high, zettai ryouiki coomer anime thigh high socks. (Also known as programmer socks.) Now THATS probably his fetish. Nevermind that thigh high socks won’t stay up on ham thighs unless they’re literally taped.

Looks like Dead End: Paranormal Park was cancelled.

I’ve never heard of this thing and yet I can clearly picture everything about it simply based on the character designs. Sure is dead and ended.

Rowling is a toy-let to anyone who can get a hold of her, but this is another level of stupidity. Just boycott her or something.

Moderately ontopic, but not sure where else to post this: I have a theory that a mainstream video game (or other medium) series that introduces gay characters can maintain its quality, but the moment they have a non-comedic tranny/non-binareeee character is coincidentally when they take a downturn. I think it's because the former can be usually be ignored if the player wants, but the latter is going to result in some forced "educational dialogue" scene.

I'm thinking of Mass Effect and Dragon Age, plus some smaller fandoms I'm in (and won't name on KF just in case)

Not just that, gays are mainstream enough (and have been a punching bag long enough before that), that you can play them for humor. You can have a hypersexual gay character getting shot down in a multitude of funny/harsh ways by straight dudes and even the gays will think it's funny. Gays are allowed to get their comeuppance when they misbehave or ignore social norms.

You absolutely cannot make fun of trannies, though. Even in fiction. Anything bad that happens to them is never their fault, it's always a sign of their oppressed status instead.

It isn't trans-made media but has anyone noticed that pharmaceutical commercials have changed 'may affect you if you're a man or a woman' to 'assigned at birth'

Boy does that annoy me

My theory is that any media that includes a transgender/enby is written at least in part (f not fully) by a tranny or some sort of qwueer, and we already established in this thread that they are shit at writing. They’re not writing for a general audience; if it’s not self-indulgent jerkoff fantasy, it’s writing for kids or other troons. This is the case even if they’re writing into an established universe where no normie cares about these things.

There’s a fair share of ftm autobiography comics at my local library. Once upon a time these books would be equally melodramatic stories about being gay in high school, and some of them really do read more like the lesbian experience… Maybe I’ll do a summer reading list and crunch through a couple for the sake of this thread. Just finished Kisses for Jet last December and was thinking what a shame it is that I have no one to share my true thoughts with.

"A striking and emotive graphic novel from trans creator, Joris Bas Backer "

Joris? Fucking Joris? The good news is that Bas Backer currently lives in Berlin so it makes sense.

Joris Bas (Joris Bas Backer) lives in Berlin and doubts whether he has an own identity. Or if anybody actually has one. He grew up in The Hague, Bucharest, New York, and an unwelcoming little Dutch town called Oegstgeest and became an attentive observer of people. As a child, to learn how to behave, he studied other people but never found himself. Now he writes stories and tries to make the world understandable

Great, some kind of disassociation disorder along with social awkwardness. No wonder. Apparently she has a husband and child too. Explains this part of the summary.

" As Jet slowly starts to feel overwhelmed by their peers, they begin to notice that they don’t feel like the other girls in their class. As new feelings start to emerge, Jet slowly begins to realise that they may be more of a boy than a girl."

Yeah, yeah, classic hardcore not like the other kids syndrome.


I took a quick look at the goodreads and it was fascinating since there were a lot of 2.5 reviews commenting on the jarring nature of the narrative, feeling like moments rather than a cohesive whole and was hard to follow. There was also someone who self harmed who was frustrated with the comic because of how it just portrayed realistic self harm as something that happened, and then never followed up on it. I'd be pissed too - dude, can't just gloss over that.

Are autobiographical comics the privileged art student's equivalent to the classic white privileged boy coming of age crappy first novel? I've seen some great ones but I've seen enough that I want to dunk most of these people and give them a swirly.

Ngl, I respect the hustle on getting payouts from seething troons and alphabet people.

I'm sure this is where most of you people got your troon games from but has anyone went dumpster diving on itch.io for some TRANS-trashtic vidya? Place is pretty much the dumping ground of anything alphabet and fetishes galore. Could probably find some real gold there if you wanted.

I'd respect it more if I didn't associate arts and crafts like this with being female - that is, she's ironically leaning into a feminine hobby to make money. Bookbinders can be male, but recent years has a lot of women doing and showing off social media crafts. Makes me laugh.

I encourage others to do so, it's how I found out about EXTREME MEATPUNKS FOREVER and the trashfire it was. I'm burnt out by SJW games and can't will myself to play self indulgent LGBTQ+ games anymore without being committed to an asylum for a few days, otherwise I'd dive in myself.

Most are under an hour, usually made in engines that aren't huge downloads or are browser based, and some of the looniest ones are free. And of course, there's tons of circlejerking, so you'll find something good in it.

I didn't mind the Aiden in Iron Bull's mercenary company as it explored how gender stratified the alien Qunari were in practice.

Did Mass Effect have a troon in it? Or did someone just turn into a tree.

If an enterprising Kiwi wants to hustle a few bucks of gender weirdos, this would be a great time to flog overpriced “Rowling-less” versions of HP books on eBay, and when they bite, just send them one with the her name sharpied out.

It probably helped it took till game 3 for most the alien races to get models of more than one sex.

I love that DA:I gave me a chance to be blatantly transphobic or even let her die. What was better was the realistic reaction of an Aiden flipping out when you politely ask how long has he been living as a man - coping and seething that "he has always been a man".
Too bad we wont get a chance like that again.

I got recommended a book at work. I figured that yeah, yes I’d like to learn more about autism. It’s nonfiction, how bad can it be?

I’m a retard.



Acquired the audiobook. I knew something was up when it started going on about marginalized peoples not getting diagnosed as opposed to “cisgender white boys”, and the weird fixation on queers, gender and sexuality despite this being about… not that. She talks about autists being able to “be their true self”. Sure, there’s a big overlap between tism and troons, but the comparisons of being autistic with being gay and a proud mention that she met many kinds of autists, including autists who work in sex ed…

She’s met BIPOC and skitzo autists, as well as many transgender and nonconforming autists — “like me!” she adds as an aside.

Aha, I say to myself. This is Trans Made Media.

My fault for not reading a single thing on the front OR back cover and going straight to torrenting, I guess. I should have seen this leftist circlejerk coming from someone whose other book is called “Laziness Does Not Exist”.

Spoiler: A closer look at Autistic Aiden

At first I assumed that it was a low voiced woman narrating the book, but it’s Autistic Aiden reading his own dissertation for 9 hours. The book takes the position that all autistic people are different, and that you can be autistic too without actually being autistic (i.e. your child is autistic if they say they’re autistic). Except the phrase “everybody is a little autistic” is offensive — it dismisses the oppression autists face, just like how bisexuals are dismissed by the phrase “everybody’s a little gay”. Aiden muses that the former phrase does have some truth to it, and that the world would be a better place if it accommodated for the autists in all of us (except for you dirty neurotypicals).

Peppered through are pop culture references from 2010s tumblr as she shames the harmful stereotypes perpetuated by Sheldon Cooper and Sherlock and bemoans the fact that the diagnostic criteria are based on white, privileged, middle-upper class males. You don’t need a diagnosis to be autistic, because the criteria are wrong and psychiatrists actively turn away niggers. So go for it!

Autistic Aiden unironically advocates for Autistic Pride, and that is really funny to me. I can’t wait to see what other bullshit lies deeper into this excuse of a thesis.

Andromeda had a MTF, which I didn't even notice while playing as it was a boring minor NPC whose dialogue I skipped through. Troons lost their shit though because the character introduces themselves and then says their own "deadname", and the company actually apologised. As if all trannies in the past and future ever are gonna have exactly the same view on that issue. lmao

Doesn’t this just highlight the problem with the Rowling backlash? They could just not read them. They could read any of the thousands of other, better fantasy works. But they’re so pathetically dependent on these seven children’s books that they just can’t go without.

Really, it highlights what bullshit the whole thing is. Remove the name and apparently this awful, transphobic, racist work is just fine. It suggests that maybe Rowling isn’t that problematic to begin with. It’s like when troons say “tr*nny.” Clearly they aren’t that triggered, otherwise they’d steer clear completely.

It isn't trans-made media but has anyone noticed that pharmaceutical commercials have changed 'may affect you if you're a man or a woman' to 'assigned at birth'

Probably playing it safe. The vast majority of people will know what is meant, but you just need one stupid troon with no common sense and you have a lawsuit on your hands.

I want to sell versions with every character’s name replaced with J K Rowling.

So, Seanan Maquire has some fun superhero novels (I won't front) and one of the supporting characters is a heroine basically has Disney Princess powers. She's mystically tied to the archetype. You know, comic book stuff. Near the end of the second book, the characters have to board a ship by giving their True Names. Princess tries her legal name, but that doesn't work, so she kind of rolls her eyes and gives her birth name. Turns out she's trans. That's where we find out, and it comes up pretty much nowhere else. And like, she doesn't bitch and moan about having to say it, she just does it, makes a good-natured joke about her parents being confused, and moves on. It's a funny little scene.

I feel like if Macquire wrote that today, she'd have to whip herself in front of Twitter for even daring to reveal Princess's birth name, let alone having a magical authority recognise it as "true."

Why why why?! Is mainstream entertainment giving this people attention like that? Even ignoring the obvious ''they used their Troon cards to pester their way into getting noticed." Not more than 10 years ago people like this were fat and unimportant nobodies. Apparently to get spotlighted by a multi million dollar company these days all it takes is being a deviant with a "fursonia" and a couple dozen followers on social media.


I seriously hate modern life sometimes.

I'm guessing that character's powers also include changing their entire bone structure so they pass so 100% seamlessly nobody ever had any kind of inkling?

That's the greatest power of them all: being fictional.

 

[White-Kettle Shufflepunk]

We never get her description, so it's unclear whether she was magically turned into a woman or if we should be picturing Chube. Admittedly, the only people present are an old friend who probably already knew and a lady from Victorian times who straight up didn't know what trannies were.

What I'm saying is, the best trans characters are the ones written by non genderspecials, because they basically write them as members of their pretend sex so it doesn't matter.
