next time i'm sticking to my antisocial ways

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 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.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.

come on. the options aren't just 'women are from venus' and 'breasting boobily.' hell, assuming there is a 'correct' way to depict all women that would somehow be known by having a single direct experience is stereotyping just as badly as rping Harlequin protagonists through a 1950s lens.

look, speaking as a woman: yes, i benefit when writing men from the fact that literature historically has featured more works by men and showcasing the points of view of men. so i have plenty of male point of views to draw from, on top of the canon that shapes most of the re/actions and principles of my male characters. but i also accept that there is a margin of representational error i may or may not ever be able to fully bridge. i don't completely other an entire gender because of it.
