reminder that genderbends are cissexist

reminder that genderbends erase trans men, trans women, non binary ppl and intersex ppl 

reminder that genderbends reinforce the idea that only two genders exist

reminder that genderbends reinforce the idea that if your genitalia changes so does your gender identity change

reminder that instead of genderbends you can do trans headcanons

reminder that trans people exist 

Except that none of this is true. Many trans people, myself in included, enjoy genderbends, because we realize that they don’t actually have anything to do with us. A genderbend is nothing like a trans headcanon, and the one can’t replace the former.

Genderbends are great ways to explore presentation, sexism, or just experiment with character design. They are not hurting trans people.
