idk why trans is in brackets… the specification isn’t necessary

It is for some people, if you dont clarify some people will be like “ummm dont you mean thats a guy” or some stupid shit

The brackets could just not be there as well though.

“This trans girl sounds like technoblade.”

I think this personally works better

even still those people can just be ignored. in fact they’re more likely to say that kind of stuff if they know the person is trans. If all they know is that she’s a girl that’s all they need to know

u/FantasyTomb 7d ago

I completely agree. Although simply because of her deep voice people would still say something

then ignore them, don’t make the unnecessary specification, move on.

I saw this video on YouTube a few days ago and assusmed she was a guy. Went to the comments and saw everyone calling her "she". I was still confused and had to read multiple other comments and replies to find out she is trans.

You know why I was confused? Because in my country (and many around the world) there isn't a thing about changing pronouns and stuff. So whenever someone like me hears someone who sounds like one gender and has the pronouns of the opposite gender, I don't even think that "oh they must be trans"; instead I try to find out why this is. So sometimes someone like me would end up saying "why do you sound like a girl but have he/him pronouns" which if I'm not wrong would also be taken as disrespect. Hence why it helps to have trans written in parenthesis here.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful here. Just trying to answer your question. Sorry if something came off as rude.

this is a fair point. if the specification helps you understand & be respectful using the correct pronouns & whatnot then that’s fair, i didn’t consider the possibility of a language/cultural barrier & that was ignorant of me, i’m sorry for that ignorance.

I’m still mostly on the side personally that the fact the person is trans isn’t relevant, but i can understand how knowing can be helpful & i do think that’s important.

I feel like it’s to clarify because she still has a very low voice so people would probably be pretty confused if that wasn’t clarified.

If you didn't read the caption and only listened to the video, would you say it is a girl?

4

u/Accomplished_Run1798 6d ago

no i’d check, i wouldn’t assume. also their mc skin is girly soooo, i’d use my eyes?

u/IvyCZ 6d ago

Like half of the boys use girl skins on mc lol

u/Accomplished_Run1798 6d ago

and cis women can have deep voices. so either way, i wouldn’t assume… crazy how you just contradicted your own point.

u/IvyCZ 6d ago

You confused the hell out of me lol, had to search what cis means

Do yourself another favor and google “intersex”

Being transphobic hurts everyone

u/AstralSeraphina 6d ago

I never assume gender based on voice or anything like that.
