Rundown: 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 post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
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. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

I'm aware of that, I'm just saying their joke doesn't work.

I am getting flashbacks of that one anon who argued incest should be on the same level of acceptance as homosexuality

This really feels like you're saying that incest should be on the same level of acceptance as trans headcanons.

The point is that you can't 'gotcha' people with the rules because they are different things that get treated differently. Sorry.

sure, but what is it about the difference between gender identity and sexuality that makes one generally ok to headcanon and the other generally bad?

(frozen comment) Re: op

I think if all most players wanted out of their character's gay headcanon is internalized homophobia, performative demonstrations of sexuality, and grappling with their gayness in a very fetishistic way, it would also be generally frowned upon

and it is

no it does not lol

sorry nobody wants to deal with offensive "trans" headcanons here, you will just have to go to twitter unless you can craft a character respectfully

(frozen comment) Re: da

It's just really weird to me that you automatically equate playing a character as trans as not being respectful or acceptable. Like introducing the trans element is automatically bad in all situations. That feels like some weird anti-trans baggage.

apparently "offensive portrayal" and "unhealthy self-projection" are the only two choices. it has never been done differently

Im gonna buck slightly against the rest of the thread and actually say that dwrpers don't mind HCs as long as they don't change a character's personality and general behavior. There are some characters that are so subtextually autistic/trans/etc that people will barely notice if you headcanon them or not. But unfortunately in practice the people who make these HCs WANT to play out stuff like Hatsune Miku Hamilton binder, because otherwise why bother? That's why there's a conflict.
