Gaming I hate Trans Ralsei Theory

Post image

Even if we ignore the numerous times he has been referred to as he/him, a boy, a guy, a dude, a prince, we must also realize that just because he isn't traditionally masculine, he isn't transmasc (or transfem)

There is no Easter Bunny, there is no Tooth Fairy, and there is no Princess from the Dark.

'Oh but Deltarune is all about breaking free from fate' I can hear exactly two of you say in your heads (I can read your mind,) I know one thing, and it's that I can't break free from the fate of going through Undertale 2 and finding that both routes lead to the same goddamn ending of Gaster Friend Inside Me Penumbra Phantasm Big Shot World Revolving Jarona Shadow Crystal Always Bet On Papyrus Knight.

ZHOTAN!

(Also, I'm not transphobic, before you try to spew that label onto me)

Shoutout to the guys who called everyone that disagrees with the theory racist, transphobic assholes

i've had people say that denying ralsei is trans (evidence: one cutesy line) is on the same level as denying jax from tadc is trans (too much evidence to list out + creator confirmation for those who didn't get it)

and that anyone who does either is transphobic and on the same level of transphobic + media illiterate

not on reddit btw this was an actual person

aw man guess I’m transphobic now cause I don’t see where the headcanon came from

born to be trans, forced to agree when anyone calls any character trans or else you're a "threat to the community" and "have internalised transphobia"

yea like I get when it’s a canon trans character but like you’re not helping trans people by doing that with a headcanon

it's also to the detriment of gnc people and nonbinary people, because the assumption always seems to be transfem

like come on, i'm transfem myself but transfem defaultism combined with extreme egg culture create a very toxic environment
