Happy Holidays

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

That is exactly how I play her, anon. Although I do use male pronouns in actions tags to help remind that my Sheik's physical sex is male.

Apparently that's still too much of an AU for most Zelda fans nowadays, though.

as long as you're respecting her identified gender, you can keep her physical sex as ambiguous as you want, fuck haters

it's the "physical sex = gender!" crowd that needs to fucking stop. smh for people who say a feminine princess can't possibly be a badass ninja too

and smh for people who say Sheik can't possibly have a dick because because Sheik is Zelda.

I swear, within the Zelda fandom it's like it can only be one or the other. (Zelda is somehow wearing a princess dress under a skin tight ninja suit and no magic is involved whatsoever, OR Sheik is an entirely different character with his own mind and personality because wow how could they possibly be the same person?)

I would love to play Sheik this way at a game someplace but I'm sure I'd be wanked on so hard by either ardent faction that it would ruin it. Sigh.

Zelda changed her skin color and eye color via magic, so her changing her clothes and even her sex via magic just makes sense if you want to assume she changed her sex too. Honestly, I was always bugged by the "her body's too masculine!" shit since many athletic women (Olympians especially) have that same body type. Treating Sheik as a different person entirely rustles the fuck out of my Jimmies too.

Playing Zelda/Sheik's gender as female regardless of her physical sex changing sounds interesting, nonny, especially since you seem like you'd go about it in a way that's respectful to trans* people.

So you have my axe!
