That was a fascinating but disturbing read. Only sane person in the comments:
Honestly this story could be adapted to make a good horror movie as an allegory for troonism and what effects it has on the people around them. And if it had a based tranny-hater director.
I'm sure he's lying but this would be worse if it were true. "My wife was tolerant enough to put-up with my crossdressing but I STILL managed to drive her away."
Men who are destroying themselves by cooming read a horror story about a guy who destroys himself by cooming and go "Wow, what a happy story!"
Also known as I failed as a man so why not try being a "woman".
I thought this was Jessie Gender lmao, all these fucks look the same. Another nerdy tranny with hair dye.
Even if I wasn't already peaked that is the most horrible character design I've ever seen in a AAA game. Microsoft really are determined to completely fuck up every exclusive they have, huh.
Oh this makes sense. When I watched the trailer I did think to myself "that's an unnaturally lanky woman with bad proportions. either she's really tall or someone fucked up the mocap". It's harder to determine if she's not shown next to a woman so I'm not going to determine if she's a dude. However I'm a bit annoyed at those saying "medieval women didn't wear makeup" when they fucking did. Now it's a fair question if the common woman wore makeup as most relics found were from the wealthy but if youre an adventurer you can spare a few coin if you wanted. This dichotomy of "a woman can't be interested in her appearance if she's an adventurer" and "a woman can't be traditionally feminine while doing masculine things" is quite sexist.
They wore it for special occasions. A lot of women today are ashamed to leave their house without their clown mask on.
The argument is a non-starter whether it's true or not because Fable is not, and has never been, realistic. This isn't Kingdom Come: Deliverance, it's a satirical fantasy game, and when I play games like that I want to make my character look cool, not like some frumpy extra from Game of Thrones.
They did my boi Legolas dirty here
Wow. I thought they had just been extremely lazy and re-used a male face design for a female character. Lol. Lmao. They even gave the character a bonus upper lip stache somehow.
It's also really fucking stupid, because what's deemed 'feminine' and 'masculine' can be wildly different from country to country and even generation to generation.
agree but would also caveat that the enduring 'masculine' and 'feminine' roles, across times and cultures, are related to our physical characteristics, which are exactly what troons claim are irrelevant.
It really depends on the class of woman and the era and country they were in. Wearing makeup was often thought of as a sin of vanity but it was common enough that theologians wrote about it (e.g. "it's ok if you're doing it to make yourself more attractive to your husband so that he doesn't sin by developing lustful thoughts towards other women" - Thomas Aquinas).
