Yeah, but I just wanted to make it clear that the trans character is not based on me. I'm not making a villain trans due to the unfortunate implications. One day, a trans character will just be seen as a character, but we are currently not at that stage yet.

I get that implicitly.

And I was just ribbing you.

I'm a writer too 8) I think I'd have a very hard time writing about trans characters.  I don't think I can fully grasp the mind of a transwoman or a non-binary person, not well enough to convince me I could do a good job, and writing a transman would hit too close to home.

One of the main characters  I have in my fanfics is a transgirl. The story I wrote when I introduced her hit on some pretty heavy things: Like, there was one scene where she talked about how everyone hated her in her old town and she had considered suicide. Yeah, it was a heavy thing (along with some instances of her being called a "->-bleeped-<-" and a "freak" by some of the other kids, along with some other transphobic stuff) but it made sense in the overall story. But things worked out for her in the end since she finally finds some people that accept her as one of the girls and it's all good. (Not to mention that she has a couple of new friends that are more than willing to kick the crap out of anyone that screws with her.)

There's no such thing as race. We're all from Ethiopia.

One of the characters in my favourite fanfic series is a trans woman.

A lovely little anti-racist, anti-sexism tune. (Even though you can't understand a word of it without lyrics.) *This isn't the demo version either. This is from the 7". The uploader made a mistake.*

Same problem I had, and using their email help system simply gave me the run around. Yahoo sucks.

As to 20 msg per hour limit, it has always been there that I know of, I never ran into it though. I can't understand why anyone should.

should i use the wrong pronoun with someone in the recent future, please don't be offended, i'm mixing up everything, i'm even mixing up the pronouns of cis-people, who would just shrug it off, so as you can see, there's no ill will involved. I even get names of close acquaintances mixed up ATM. my mind is a bit of a mess at the moment. nothing bad though. I just want to let you all know just in case.
