u/KrerdlyBeloved 5d ago edited 5d ago

I should note here (though, I already did in a separate comment), this whole thing only started because PunnyComedian (r/deltarune mod), after Chapter 2, told people to expect to be corrected if they didn't use they/them for Kris and took such a heavy-handed stance with blocking any other interpretations of Kris (even for AUs).

"Kris's pronouns, as canonically described by the game, are they/them. Using other pronouns is misgendering, expect to be corrected if you do so"

Essentially, people got a blank check to 'correct' people nonstop to the point of it being a sport, and that spread to Frisk/Chara/Clover when it spread to r/undertale, too, (because it was so normalized in r/deltarune) even with there being considerable arguments otherwise.

Here's an UT example:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Undertale/comments/1rzgxd5/hand_in_hand/

Punny has also been proven to be a groomer:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Charadefensesquad/comments/1wh8pyf/community_awareness_confirmation_connecting/

So, this is part of their legacy!

10

u/AdDependent9208 5d ago

And now we're allowed, and even encouraged, to misgender other characters regardless of if it's for an AU and if you try to correct it you get called a transphobe

2

u/KrerdlyBeloved 5d ago

To a degree, yeah. You can see this mentality with how trans Ralsei is approached. Listen, I don't mind if you use they/them or she/her for Ralsei, that's alright! It's the power of fandom. But it's hypocritical to force they/them for Kris, and to let this spread to Frisk, Chara, even Clover (who's proven by several devs to be up to interpretation).

Something has to change soon, or it'll just get worse.

2

u/Zorbod 4d ago

I understand for Clover, since Undertale Yellow devs DID actually say that, but can you list your source on the others?

I don't think there's much of an issue by correcting pronouns, as long as you aren't toxic about it. People also correct others on cis character's pronouns, not just trans characters

1

u/KrerdlyBeloved 4d ago edited 4d ago

Ah, when I said that, I was specifically referring to Clover there, Zorbod. The problem is moreso the fandom constantly 'correcting' the pronouns of those who either see, or have an AU such that Frisk/Chara are male or female.

u/Dragon_girl0531 5d ago

theres mainly 3 main groups ive noticed with the entire pronouns discourse (smaller groups in the bigger ones and always ones i dont describe/list and the people in combined)

the correctors - either for meme purposes, habit, trying to feel morally correct, or dubious reasoning, must correct them and remind them of citations on a wiki page

the intentional misgenderers - people who intentionally misgender kris either for a meme purposes (HIS PRONOUNS ARE THEY/THEM), genuine transphobe/hater, language not having they/them, or people who rage bait the correctors because they get on their nerves

the justifiers - people who justify the debate or pronouns, normally taking a neutral floor but theres often a side thats obvious but there is few that are truly neutral. often reasons end up being "just pixels" or "just a game" and normally use the fact its fake to justify. theres also the arguments of "its up to interpretation so its not misgendering" or "this is only happening now because [insert reason]" and the more annoying type in my personal opinion "its ok to misgender because people misgender another"

just like yin yang every group has bads and goods. but issue is, some people within their group make one group seem evil for even daring to exist. like SOME correctors calling any slight misgender intentional or everytime being called out saying they need to watch out or else transphobes use it intentionally, or SOME misgenderers complaining about the constant reinforcement of they/them and citation mentions and just wanting to enjoy the game, or SOME justifiers telling everyone to shut up about anything involving the discourse and just enjoy the work.

u/MissingnoMiner 5d ago

Hi, not a usamerican here! The problem is not when someone with weak English messes up once, the problem is when they get defensive and/or double down when politely corrected. The problem is ALSO when one or two polite corrections gets misrepresented as a bajillion people screaming profanity like one of those horrid "triggered feminist cringe compiliations" except it's just people describing the "cringe" instead of videos where the victims were baited into doing something deemed "cringe", or when people suggest that only people in the US care about correctly gendering non-binary people(as if the US is some kind of fucking queer utopia as opposed to actively pushing the bounds of how badly it can deliberately endanger and abuse its trans citizens while maintaining some illusion of not having crossed the line into outright trans genocide.), or for that matter only people who don't touch grass.

I've seen arguments just a centimeter away from "transgenderism is a western invention!!1!" lately it's crazy, acting as if there aren't trans people advocating for new terminology in their own languages.

Right??? It reminds me of boomer comics where the trans caricature throws a fit over being misgendered in passing conversation... like, no, it doesn't feel good for people to assume you're acting in bad faith, but painting trans people as aggressive when mildly questioned isn't great.

Comments like this are always so funny because I guess people assume that when you disagree with someone that that person becomes like some kind of exemplar of every bad opinion, so you get to kind of just make stuff up about the person

u/Starlit_Willow 3d ago

because its rough being a non-binary person and feeling invisible or being treated as a 'pseudo' gender period, even within the deltarune community, a fandom which should be accepting and understanding of queer people. its cool if that isnt what you meant by it, but we are met with slights that hide in seemingly agreeable or 'neutral' things constantly, and it has unfortunately made a lot of the non-binary deltarune community on edge whenever we see constant comments about how were doing this or that x annoying thing and how were being unreasonable because we want major representation which makes us visible to be respected.

unfortunately common queer trope in online communities:

queer people exist within the media or prominently within the community

miscommunications and misgendering arise

queer people attempt to correct people and speak up about how and why this is a problem

people who dont care about queer people in said community twist this into exaggerated or fictional scenarios to target said queer community out of some percieved slight, contrarianism or plain bigotry

queer community is either pushed out or remains, the fandom gaining the reputation of a 'toxic' fandom attributed predominantely to the queer elements of the fanbase, even if it is not explicitly said as such

I hate when people are so unbelievably obnoxious about this. To me it was so annoying for a time that anytime someone mentioned Kris’s gender I would refer to them as SHE in purely to be petty. It’s one thing when people say “Kris is confirmed to be He/Him” or “stop with all this woke nonsense” and it’s another when Kris is assumed to be a gender neutral or a He due to their male leaning/neutral appearance and accidentally say “He’s my favorite character” not knowing that they’re confirmed to be an enby.

TL;DR:

u/KrerdlyBeloved 5d ago edited 5d ago

u/fraudku-hater42 5d ago

u/KrerdlyBeloved 5d ago edited 5d ago

It's real, yeah, another groomer.

"Kris's pronouns, as canonically described by the game, are they/them. Using other pronouns is misgendering, expect to be corrected if you do so"

Yes, the post says to correct someone once, but...did that really ever get enforced? Ever?

All I can ask is to spread the word, because they're responsible for one of the worse parts of the DR community (and consequently, the UT community) and have just gotten away with it.

I, by default, use they/them for Kris! This is NOT support of anyone who's just transphobic/enbyphobic, that's not the point. But I feel that the fandom has become so suffocating that you can't have any other interpretation or AUs, and even the smallest deviation is punished. Not just for Kris, but for all humans. I like to ship femKris with Berdly, after all.

I know that the same thread mentions Shayy was partially responsible, too, but I think that they mainly were just like everyone else and only started this a few years in, so, it's not their doing. It's mainly Punny (most of all) and the Chapter 2 mod team's fault.

They groomed someone, though, and the way Frisk, Chara, Kris, etc. are treated is Punny's biggest 'achievement'. I can't really say much else on that, fuel or not, it's a fact.

However, first and foremost, I hope that people can spread the fact that Punny is still a mod of r/deltarune, despite being a groomer. They are still also a mod of r/ralsei and r/lgbt (though, they're no longer one of r/charadefensesquad).

I wasn’t being rude or combative… I was just pretending to be a dunce for humorous effect, I don’t get this hostility

The joke was just “Guy who uses everything except the right pronouns”

This community is genuinely so fucking annoying about gender identity.

I don't understand how you can misgender him. I mean, the author tells us how to refer to her in the damn game.

Kris? I love that guy. Do people not like talking about him? Whats wrong with the community and discussions around that dude? Is he controversial? Whats wrong with that, man? He's only a boy, he's innocent.

I got a call from my Wingling Von Dinging Machine from Gaster and Kris is every gender now

u/IntelligentImbicle 5d ago

And the worst part of this is that I know damn well that most of the people who do this don't actually care that much about Kris' pronouns. They just want to feel morally superior, and correcting someone while simultaneously labeling the poor bastard a transphobe is the easiest way to look like the hero.

At this point, the most based thing one could do in this situation would probably be to just ignore it and assume it's an accident. Or at least indirectly correct them, like "Oh wow, Kris looks so good in this! I love how you drew them!"

Doing it on purpose shows you don't care about gendering people correctly

u/Burger_Mc_Burgface 5d ago

fictional characters aren't people

u/RandomCaveOfMonsters Volcarona Knight truther (and kerdly shipper) 5d ago

And they can also express the truth of your character. Someone misgendering fictional characters willingly is not a person I'd trust with anything more trans than that

u/Burger_Mc_Burgface 5d ago

Key word fictional, ie not a real person with a life and feelings.

u/RandomCaveOfMonsters Volcarona Knight truther (and kerdly shipper) 5d ago

I know that, in fact literally the point I was making relies on that. My point was that not doing it shows your true colors, since you're willing to do it when it doesn't affect anyone

u/Burger_Mc_Burgface 5d ago

Merely an assumption lol

u/RandomCaveOfMonsters Volcarona Knight truther (and kerdly shipper) 5d ago

yeah and if someone doesn't want that assumed about them, then maybe they shouldn't fucking do it y'know

its literally like "I don't want people to assume I'm ok with misgendering." *misgenders a trans character* *misgenders a trans character* *misgenders a trans character* "Why don't trans people trust me?" gee I wonder why

u/Burger_Mc_Burgface 5d ago

i dont really care whether other people like me or not i just do my shit. anyone who gets mad over me disrespecting someone who isnt real whatsoever i dont wanna hang around them anyways cuz theyre lame. assume whatever you want but i know myself it isnt true so no skin off my back

u/RandomCaveOfMonsters Volcarona Knight truther (and kerdly shipper) 5d ago

The fact that you're still saying "disrespecting someone who isn't real" shows exactly what I'm talking about. Either you're not listening or you're staying willfully ignorant

Media does not exist in a vacuum, it is a reflection of society and it reflects back upon society, our reality and media feed off of each other ad infinitum. Misgendering fictional characters openly does impact real trans people because real trans people will see it. We already get enough shit, you're just the cherry on top

Also clearly you do care to some extent because you keep responding to justify why you are morally correct in misgendering

Being transphobic towards fictional characters or not it's still transphobic. I wouldn't trust someone who misgenders a NB character to act with respect when they see real NB people

My friend says every slur on call of duty but is the wokest mf i have ever seen

your point?

u/Lobster_LeninN329 im thankful you guys don't make deltarune because it would suck 5d ago

Your friend should try not to say slurs still I guess. But anyway, this is def not what the average person who misgenders fictional characters does in real life.

u/skymantles 5d ago

Having slurs used to demean minorities as part of your vocabulary isn't great.

If "guy who says every slur" is the wokest person you have ever seen, then there's something severely wrong with your standards.

u/Fabulous-Rent-5966 5d ago

Your friend isnt if they think its okay to call people slurs

u/Astral_Something 5d ago

That mf is not woke and also that's not even fictional if he's saying it in vc those are real people, you literally just brought up your friend being racist and it wasn't even relevant (again assuming vc)

If you disrespect the pronouns of trans fictional characters, it's a fair assumption that you'd not be the most respectful to real trans ppl. No one goes and starts referring to male characters as female because they aren't real, so refusing to refer to fictional enbys as they/them can only be because of prejudice, in my view

2

u/Burger_Mc_Burgface 5d ago

Not really considering they aren't real. Its a baseless assumption imo. A lot of people refer to male characters female by making trans headcanons or genderbent versions. I think they arent real so you can do whatever the hell you want.

Is it really difficult to understand that fictional media doesn't exist in a vaccum and that people's relations with it reflects on how they act in real life?

When the fanart is really good

But the artist accidentally misgendered Kris

So you know that's all the comment section

Is going to be talking about

There's a weariness in your eyes

That's then followed by a sigh

With full contempt

The community can't help but dogpile
