    I still remember when I first saw this on Reddit the name of ruawri (including the trans flag) was cut off and people were insulting her in the comments how she was self-absorbed, “character looks nothing like her”, “she wishes she looked like that”, “women always make themselves in video games”, etc.

    When it turns out she is trans now suddenly it’s sweet and wholesome and got featured at Respectful Memes. People are hypocrites.

      Different people with different context and at different times behave differently?

      I should use this as the basis for my thesis, thank you ParsnipWitch!

        Still a dick move to be mean about it if she wasn’t trans. Even with the “different context” it’s just people being rude to someone who really does look like their character, which isn’t exactly cool either.

      Damn, you’re so far up the ass of your own misogyny that you can’t even read critically. Life must be really hard for you.

      EDIT: would this commenter saying “All [insert race here] look the same?” be acceptable to all of you? I sincerely doubt it. Why is them ‘joking’ the same about women okay for you all?

      She’s trans. So when she made the character she was still presenting male and therefore the character looked nothing like her. Now that she looks how she feels; it’s a wholesome surprise that she looks just like the character she made potentially even before she knew she would transition.
