I cannot stand that meme format... It's so... "uwu twans women awe women." I don't understand why they always use anime drawings to represent themselves...

They use anime pictures because if they used their real pictures everyone would see the absurdity because they would look like men in dresses not ~kweer gals~ and the whole house of cards would come tumbling down. I really think so much of the TRA movement depends on the internet and social media interactions and relationships, so people can present what they want and bombard people with pseudointellectual tumblr word salad and is just very performative.

It’s so creepy when people have a cartoon character for their profile pic on social media like it’s basically signaling they have low self esteem or look really gross

I use my own cartoon character because I have a strict policy of never posting images of myself online. It keeps me safe from clients and weirdo fanboys that could recognize me IRL, as I send physical objects to clients so my general location is known.

That makes sense, but that's still a cartoon character of you, as opposed to something from a show. Good point though.

Well... it's only sort of my own character. But she's a purple alien XD;;;
