uhhhh beautiful ♥

@Fipse I can't wait for the official special chapter/epilogue ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

i don't trust dog adora i feel like she would shit on the carpet if you didn't keep an eye on her

^You're just basically ship one person to another to prevent ship wars aren't ya?

^ The only group futanari actually represent is hermaphrodites, so I'm not sure why you included lesbians and trans women. Leaving aside porn, which is supposed to be fetishistic in nature, can you really say that attempts like "Boku no Futatsu no Tsubasa" (the only non-hentai, serious representation of the subject I can think of) are negative to a group that has been marginalized throughout history?

To be clear, I don't care if either of this couple is supposed to be futanari or not, and I won't argue that point because they're so cute.

Wild AU.

I've been laughing at that "Labradora" comment for 5 minutes and I can't stop help

^ Because despite the technical definition, futanari are almost always drawn without female genitalia, thereby making them resemble, and be mistaken for, pre-op trans women, to an extent that most western viewers don't appreciate the difference. The problem there is that they are inherently cis women with dicks, skewing the assumption of most trans women's ability to "pass" (Yes I know that's offensive, it's in quotes and I'm using it to make a point about perception) to toxic levels.

It affects lesbians because, well, think about the ratio of good, realistic lesbian porn to "Let's slap a dick on one of them without a second thought because it's more interesting that way".
Maybe some of the lesbian portion is my personal experience, being an intersex lesbian (CAIS, so you basically can't know unless I tell you). The first time someone called me a "futanari" to my face, I fucking slapped them.

The fact that they are almost exclusively represented in porn is the problem. You can't leave aside porn, because that's 99%. If there were more honest, serious attempts like the one you mentioned, yes, it could be a positive thing, but there aren't.

sayaka jealous in the background

is this really canon ? i don't remember them having a kid

The creators made the character in response to a question posed by a fan of what Adora and Catra's kid would be like, is the short answer. Whether or not that makes it canon is debatable.

Nozomi in FEH when

I'm not sure I quite get what you mean, that futa are setting unrealistic expectations for trans women and their ability to "pass"?

Personally, when I see futa sans penis I take it as it's own thing unless explicitly told otherwise, I would not put them in the same category as trains women.

I mean you can do stories with futa doing normal, everyday things but then their nature as futa don't really come into play. I suppose you could make it about how they might struggle or thrive with their nature.

^ I'm saying futanari, a term that is effectively lost in translation and interpreted to mean "normal woman, except with a dick" is presented as being in the same category as trans women (Hentai Foundry, for example, uses a catch-all "TG" tag that includes futanari, intersex, and transgender) and sets unrealistic expectations of how "cis" trans women look. Sort of like casting a cis actor to play a trans character, and why that's frowned upon.

It's called respectful intersex representation. The same way you would try to represent any other LGBTQ+ character in your work.

P.S. Futa sans penis? I'm not sure what you mean, isn't that a regular woman? Did you mean futa sans vulva?

SAAAAAAAAAAYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTSUUUUUUUUUGUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I love this ship. Ahhh.

We need more charoix

^ Not buying the whole "actors can't act like people they're not" bullshit, sorry. That's literally what acting is. And you have to disregard the futanari porn when talking about representation, because almost all porn is not necessarily representative of the people depicted in it. I think what you're seeing isn't a problem with negative views of futanari in serious works, but people unable to make the distinction between porn and real life. Which is an entirely different problem, and affects people no matter their sex or orientation.
