No, there isn't. There may be a handful if tumblrinas doing that - I haven't checked and aren't going to bother checking - but there certainly isn't a wider trend on the internet generally.

Moral: citation needed.

There are so many right-wing folk without balls on this site, I don’t know what to call them anymore!

This was originally written 他 , with “human” radical (a radical is a part of a Chinese
character that imparts some semantic or linguistic information)


This overlaps with Japanese. The two lines that look like a letter 'T' that has been crossed obliquely on the character's left are actually a modified version of the character for "person","人". The Japanese-derived reading of this kanji is hito, and the reading that is borrowed from Chinese is jin.

Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.

I'm tired of all this. Why does everything have to be so complicated?
I don't want to be a lesbian trapped in a mans body anymore.

I'll just let my gender determine my gender, and live out the rest of my life as a bona fide man.
