Transphobia? In my fandom?
It's more likely
than you think.
JFC, seriously? To paraphrase a comment from the fanfic rants post, in a world where not "passing" as a cisgendered person can get you killed, this story just isn't fucking funny.
I get wanting to showcase Dethklok as a bunch of maladjusted idiots (because they are), but this fic doesn't even attempt to do that. It's basically like, "HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES FOR A REALLY REPULSIVE DATE? A TRANSGENDERED 'WOMAN' WHO DOESN'T FIT THE CONVENTIONS OF TRADITIONALLY ACCEPTED FEMALE BEAUTY! IT'S EVEN FUNNIER AND MORE DISGUSTING BECAUSE 'SHE' IS ACTUALLY A MAN!"
Also, protip? For the love of God, never use ironic quotations when referring to someone's gender. That's just a fucking dick move, on top of all of the other dick moves these authors managed to make in only about 2000 words.
BRB, time to go decide whether or not I actually want to get myself any more wrapped up in this crap than I already have :\ Or I could just go decompress by looking at gifs of puppies. DECISIONS.
