anon doesnt get that japan would portray a trans narrative very differently

no she didn't, she fully transitioned and so did her friend maho chan! they even had a full arc about the misogyny about nonpassing trans girls and maho's mother accepting her

nayrt you know this is an actual thing lots of cis girls think sometimes, right

"i wish i didn't have boobs/i wish i had a dick" doesn't always = gender dysphoria

then the theory that all gnc ppl are gay or trans holds no water. atlus is p.good about how ppl's sexualities and gender play out.

lol lots of people thought naoto was trans in the beginning of the game

naoto really wanting to be a girl was the plot twist

uh... i wasn't arguing otherwise?

(Anonymous) 2015-06-20 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
we do, but we're not talking about japan at large but a company that talks about sexuality and gender quite often and doesn't shy away from exploring the psyche. the fact that a person who was questioning doesn't magically get over that questioning by the end is amazing

naoto also came to the conclusion that they were going to do things their own way.

maybe you're some where on the ace spectrum, like grey or demi? Or maybe autochorissexual? I know a lot of ace folks who craved affection and thought they were bi/pan/gay/etc but then when it came to actually give and receiving they were like ok nah tho. or maybe you just weren't feeling the guy sometimes people just dont click together well. regardless I don't want you to feel broken :(

yeah it's almost like there's no "correct" way to be a girl

still means she's a girl

(Anonymous) 2015-06-20 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Madoka Magica, but calling the Anime that said “Only girls have enough PMS to be magical” feminist is like calling Pizza “diet food”. And interpreting Naoto and Chihiro as trans will always be a headcanon and nothing else. Heck, most people don’t even realize that the American localization of P4 greatly toned down Chie’s Social Link to hide the fact that she has giant complexes because of her being a tomboy a considers herself an “unworthy woman” and actually LOVES being called “girly” or “docile”… Things that would be considered an *insult* in Western society.
