i will never forgive cis women in fandom for manipulating people into thinking their effemiphobia/transphobia is progressive and meant to protect queer men. if you don't think a short, feminine (as you wax about in the comments) man can be a hero, that's about you. https://twitter.com/dcbatboys/status/1346637840516583424
https://twitter.com/thirdboywonders/status/1346686500029788162?s=20 just outright shameless effemiphobia/transphobia lol
i don't know where to start, that they're biased to view short, smaller-bodied men as feminine or that they all went after a queer male artist for "feminizing" a male character which is "untrustworthy" and that you must protect "mlm" from ... fem gays?
so like when i say that queer men also fall victim to the anti-fujoshi brigade i don't just mean trans men--though it's most often trans men--i also men QUEER MEN IN GENERAL. this is a cis queer man who literally draws for DC. non-queer men have the gall to call him a fetishizer.
i'm just done. cis women and other non-queer men like this make fandom an unsafe place for queer men and especially trans men. "short men can't be heroes" was truly a new low for this brand of effemiphobic discourse. sidenote: tim drake is like 5'5" in canon! shorter than me!
