what do you think of people who rp transgender / autistic / blind / deaf / handicapped?
i never ran into problems while playing those (i've played two of those before, two of my favourite characters tbh), but i always wondered if people like... were upset with me?
i'm not trans, autistic, blind, deaf, or handicapped, but i do like to learn about those people and the struggles they have in their daily lives. i think it's interesting to look at them and put myself in their shoes. it's not great! i can tell you that. but i think it's sort of wonderful how some people like that can get by with their lives with a smile on their face, and those who can't, i sincerely hope they can find that peace in their life.
personally i definitely want to try out more transgender characters, i think it's really interesting how transgender people come to be (biologically, of course). i mean it's like-- i'm not a gay man but i still play gay men and sometimes even put a dash of homophobia in their life because it's a real thing for some people. i have straight/pan/bi/gay characters that have gay parents and i don't have gay parents.
i'm not sure. do you find it offensive? as a trans, autistic, blind, deaf, or handicapped person? do you find it offensive when girls play gay or straight men? do you find it offensive when men play gay or straight women?
like i said, i never ran into problems with this. no one called me out and been like "yo i'm trans and i don't think you should be using us as a doll" and whatnot. if they did, that's fine! everyone has an opinion but you gotta back yourself up.
anyways- that's all i had to say. i just wanted to know if anyone finds it weird / offensive?
