anyway ai discourse is kicking off on my dash again and i just want to reiterate that i fully and 100% believe that “cutting up and remixing pre-existing intellectual property without prior permission” should never be made illegal and it would be utterly horrifying if the united states attempted to criminalize it.
ai is a flawed and shitty tool that presents a fuckton of labor rights abuses and industry problems that need to be addressed promptly. this can and does coexist with the fact that it is currently legal to make art using other people’s intellectual property and criminalizing that is a fucking batshit idea that will open pandora’s box of corporate litigation and artist abuse.
Option 1 - Do you feel like transness and/or gender fuckery is inherent to yourself? I am a transmasc on T, but transness to me is less about being transmasc and more about having fun with my gender and trying new things with my gender that make me happy/euphoric. Like if I had been born in an amab body, I feel like I would be transgender/transfem in that universe. I cannot imagine a version of myself that doesn’t engage in genderfuck.
Option 2 - Or do you feel like your transitioned gender, or lack thereof, is what you would be regardless. Not sure how to word this one other than “you wouldn’t be the first option” jshdshd
Option 3 - Or are you somewhere in the middle? Or outside of the options here?
OBVIOUSLY every answer on this poll and in the tags are real and valid trans experiences/feelings. It should go without saying but I know people love clowning on trans posts so I’m saying it now.
This post is a celebration of transness in all its variety. I love hearing about people’s relationships with gender.
As a nonbinary guy, I feel like there is no way I could have been born that wouldn’t make me trans. Even if I was raised somehow as a nonbinary man, I still think there is some inherent wobbliness to my gender that isn’t affected by “how [I] was born.”
