Randon fic/gender thing

[citrusjava]

You know, genderswap and trans fic is fine, but I'd just really like to be able to get used to fic in which the boys have female parts, and that's all. I don't usually enjoy fic that explains transgenderism, or that makes the boys girly female girls, but I would like some fic where they had female parts and the story was not about that.

It would be nice, wouldn't it? Fandom collectively seems to suffer from the idea that there must always be a Big Social Issue in a fic, particularly when it comes to gender or trans characters or genderfluid or whatever. Rather how main stream television has this unfortunate twitch toward stories where the LGBT character is only there for a Very Special Episode.

It's frustrating. I hope it gets better.

Well, it;s inevitable for stories to be a social commentary or express a social pov, and usually \i am for addressing social issues realistically, but I get so tired of being explained the 101 - that is not *for me*, it's very.... didactic? A few writers, like FayJay and Balder12 have done that gracefully and deeply. But in general, a bit of just - ugh, less focus? Would be good. Trans people are not walking talking educational moments, and mostly do things that are not discovering their gender and explaining int and being ever so thankful to anyone who is halfway decent towards them.

Frankly, beyond trans issues - I would just like fic that inspired me to think of my own pussy and breasts as happily and lovingly as I do the boy's parts.

Exactly. Having a trans or even gay/lesbian/bi character does not mean it's a 'teachable moment' every time they're on the page.
