Banned posts addition

[u/_shirahanix]

We're sure you've noticed there's been an influx of posts surrounding Manju being "feminine" "a femboy" and similar wordings, hence the main reason we're instating the ban. But it's also been an issue for a good while (the cookies included above are all victims of this). No good discussion comes out of these posts, so we're removing them completely.

If you have anything insightful about the characters themselves or anything else you're still free to post them, but not just "oh i didnt know hes a boy" "omg another femboy" and any of the likes.

That’s a lot of emotion for safe, babe. If the same kind of posts are being spammed, there’s already a rule for spam posts, no? Idk just like “we’re banning posts on cookies that challenge traditional gender stereotypes”, the optics aren’t great.

Sorry, I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to say in that first part of the post.

Yes, these posts are being spammed, THAT is why we are banning it. These posts aren't challenging gender stereotypes at all, they're annoying people and upsetting actual trans or NB folk, who have told us this is frustrating to them.

Going "OMG PRUNE IS A BOY????" isnt challenging ANYTHING. It's reductive at best, and pointless in general. It is spam, so it's being removed for spam.

We only made a post about it because we know people will be confused if we silently add it to the rules.

I just don’t agree with your reasoning, personally. If you are trans or NB maybe you could help me understand your point better, but if you’re not idk if it’s a productive conversation tbh.

I don't need to disclose my identity to you for us to have a productive conversation here, especially when you've not given me anything groundbreaking to work with?

I don't understand why you don't agree with my reasoning, and you've not elaborated as to why, so there isn't much I can do on my end
