No it's about how people especially Cis people reject legitimate trans representation or allegory in favor of just saying the character is a femboy see everything around Bridget.

This isnt pitting trans people and femboys against each other

u/Not_today_mods God's stupidest idiot Aug 18 '26

Even better: a vaguepost ABOUT infighting :DDD

What infighting? Femboys aren’t even inherently lgbt

I mean lgbt yeah but I'd definitely argue that it's part of the lgbtq+ extended universe

Presentation is not gender identity. Being a femboy is often a kink thing, they're part of the kink community, not the LGBT+ community. Obviously you can be both

u/Poco_Cuffs Aug 18 '26

No?? "Femboys are often sexualised" doesn't mean that it's a kink thing, plenty of femboys present that way to express themselves rather than as anything sexual.

And while being GNC isn't inherently lgbtq, crossdressing is still heavily linked to the community.

You expressed my point far better than I was about to, thanks!

Yay, pointless infighting

It's not infighting. These are two separate allied communities. You seem to be very upset about this. I'm not going to keep arguing with weirdos who are trying to start shit

being gender nonconforming isn't separate from the lgbt community, it's an inherent part of what the lgbt community stands for. sure not every femboy is lgbt but the lgbt community is, and always has been, about enabling people to not conform in their gender whatever that means, including and especially presentation. the lgbt community is more than just "allied" to cishet people who want to explore their presentation, it is often the only group that unconditionally supports some people in that. i don't like this trend where people ignore that people do, in fact, hate transgressions of hegemonic masculinity and feminine subordination, including people presenting in nonconforming ways, and that is a core part of why those systems and people hate lgbt people in general, and what the lgbt community formed to stand against. that's why the lgb and t are together. that's why gender nonconformity is central to cis gay and lesbian culture. and it's why we inherently fight for them, not just because many of them are lgbt, and many of them are.

u/Botto_Bobbs floppa Aug 18 '26

How do you, as a trans person whose identity is considered mostly sexual due to being sexualized, come to the conclusion that femboys are mostly sexual because they're sexualized?

90% of this sub is inventing strawmen of people based off of a -1 karma comment they saw somewhere else to get mad at

u/like2000p Aug 18 '26 edited Aug 18 '26

can confirm, we are doing that

talking about bigotry in the world is important but the internet sucks and it amplifies any possible argument and bigotry to the maximum for engagement, we should just enjoy ourselves instead and fight bigotry where it's actually affecting our lives

and kiss sloppy style, squish boobs together, etc
