This Just Goes To Show How Much Gender And Even Biological Sex Still Matter To People Even When They

This just goes to show how much gender and even biological sex still matter to people even when they don't really know you. If not knowing whether someone in social media is a man or a woman qualifies as being teased to death then it must really bug people when they can't tell and act accordingly. It shouldn't matter. I hope there will be a day when they quit asking and just celebrate all kinds of representations of identity, be it gendered or otherwise.

Do you dress androgonously (my computer is giving me angry red squiggles so sorry if I spelled that wrong or if that's the wrong word >3

(( Lol, noooo, I dress androgynous or crossdress irl as well. :) My co workers like to guess what I’ll be dressed as each day. ))

At GDC I cited a study where men exposed to sexy women in games reacted more negatively towards a recounting of a woman’s sexual harassment

Pogo feeding grapes to Merritt. ;)

To celebrate 100 pages of Demon of the Underground, I’m holding a special sketch request event.  The rules are simple: follow step 1, step 2, and step 3 above, and reblog this post with your selection typed out at the bottom.  (e.g. “Pogo petting Annie”.  And yes, if you really want to, you can request something like “Troy feeding grapes to Troy.”).

—-

-Only one request per reblog

-You can reblog more than once, but please request something different each time

-Maximum 1 reblog per day

—-

Requests are open until next Monday August 11 at 11:59pm CT.  I will randomly pick one winner on Tumblr and one winner on Facebook, where the celebration is also running.  Each winner will be posted respectively to Tumblr or Facebook that Thursday, August 14.

Did you request something awesome that didn’t get picked?  If I’m inspired, I might still use it for a future TWC voting incentive.

So there you go!  Request away, and let the weirdness begin! :D

Hmmm. I'd rather ask that, if the natural color of a character's eyes, lashes, eyebrows and hair can all be something wacky like purple or green, then why is the skin color always perfectly normal? If you're gonna be out there, then be all the way out there and give your character blue or violet skin or something. And if doing that would make the story unrealistic then, yes, why are the unrealistic hair and eyecolors totally acceptable? Is the color of a fictional character's skin really something that readers must be able categorize into a certain existing race? Food for thought..

This isn’t even from a yaoi it’s from My Candy Love, but if my avatar had had blond hair and blue eyes she’d’ve actually been Ukeiya

holy shit. they do have the same melty eyes and asymmetrical hair. please tell me my candy love is better than okane ga nai in at least one way or else I question why you’re playing it

Not everyone has to deal with abuse and harassment, but enough do that Twitter must take action. In a disproportionate amount of cases of harassment, those individuals are women, LGBT individuals and people of color. These individuals find value in the service, but the problem is their attackers mean as much to Twitter as they do. The weapons to fight abuse must be kept locked up, for the good of the product. This tacit statement that profit comes before people has to stop.
