Why is it that whenever a /co/ character is in a relationship

It's called wish fulfillment.

Why can't shapeshifters do anything other than be hamfisted self/body-image moralizers?

>>88647052
Imagine you have stretch powers.

You and I both know you would never perform using your stock dimensions. Same thing with a shapeshifter, we're all programmed to want to embody the sexual ideal.

>>88647052
Why the fuck would a shapshifter give a shit about their own physical appearance?

>>88647052
It just me or was Ollie okay with that idea of Dinah sleeping with Superboy?

I can't honestly think of any shapeshifters who have been in relationships other than Mystique and OP example

I guess J'onn hooked up with Rose Wilson in that one direct to video movie

>>88647193
He seemed pretty offended at first, he only started laughing when he saw it was Miss Martian

>>88647052

You're assuming they have a "default" or "natural" appearance, and that said natural appearance has genitals and at least a passing resemblance to a human body.

>>88647193
He's thinking of what he'd get Dinah to be if she had shapeshifting powers so yeah. It's never been a big deal.

What, is a shapeshifter going to get upset because they're being asked to attain an "unrealistic standard of beauty"?

They literally are the unrealistic standard of beauty. The whole reason women get offended is because they recognize they have limitations. Why would someone without these limitations get offended?

>>88647221
it seems like batman could have started playing that clip during the kiss and avoided the initial confusion

If they're comfortable enough then they probably just see it like dressing up. There's no reason to get offended unless they refuse to have sex with them in their true form.
Though I suppose there'd be humor in a very insecure shapeshifter who lashes out at people for finding them attractive in other forms.

>>88647497
Batman's sense of humor is pretty subtle.

>>88647154
Ding ding ding.

Superboy didn't liked that. It was Miss Martian that did it out of her own volition to surprise Superboy.

Superboy in this series was basically Miss Martian sex-slave.

Remember, Miss Martian gave him the "Conner" name because that was the name of jock character from the 50's show "Hello, Megan!" that she watches and bases her entire human form on.

>>88647052
Shapeshifters aren't offended because they often view physical form as fluid and disregard notions of "true forms".

>>88647052
Depends on the shapeshifter. Ms. Martian is ALREADY hiding her real form, remember.

>>88647052
I mean if it was a human who was raised on Earth and also just happened to be a shape shifter than probably, but if we're talking about some alien that was raised in a completely different society and hardly ever uses their default appearance anyway than why would they care?

>>88647052

better question. Ms. Martian is a disgusting bug alien but can shape shift into a human girl effortlessly. Somehow the change from martian to human is easy but she's not "skilled" enough to lose her boobs and grow a dick. How the hell does this make any sense?

>>88648720
Ms Martian also metaphorically raped him

>>88648720

Wonder what kind of think pieces we'd be reading about this if the sexes were switched.

>>88647052
Becauae they would place less focus on the physical form given they can shapeshift
Also that cunt faked what she looked like for months so she can fuck off with being offended.

>>88650166
Yes we get it women suck and you hate them. You don't have to bring it up every thread.

>>88647052
Why would you get offended? don't you dye your hair,shave your beard/grow it or try other stuff to occasionally make things different? it would be insulting if shapeshifter was told to stay in a form they are not comfortable in but role play is not wrong. only questionable thing is that she is never really in her true form and most of her personality comes form mimicking a tv show, Im not really sure if its expected that he should like her body in her true form too or is their some understandable gap

>>88647052
Shapeshifters have low self esteem and will take what they can get.

>>88650247
I really doubt that's what he's saying. It's true that people often overlook women being abusive compared to men.

>>88647199
>shapeshifters
I think we can add in anyone who has to hide who their are in public, for example nightcrawler with his projector

Quality Wiesman writing.

>>88647296
I think its more about questioning if your lover wants to have sex or if he just wants you too put on the face of a hot actor so they can imagine them as you. + there are some ways our identity is tied to our bodies so imagine if you were asked to race bend or to shift into someone with an amputated limbs

>>88647534
would you have sex with miss martian's true from?

>>88647199
Xanim from Runaways - a genderfluid Skrull dating an alien lesbian Karolina.
At one point Xavin realizes Karolina still has hots for their teammate, Nico, and pretends to be her. Karolina finds out before they can get naughty and freaks out and Xavin reveals that on their home planet such behavior is not only accepted but outright expected from romantic partners.

>>88650379
We're on /co/, her real form in basically in the realm of furfaggotry or scalefaggotry or whatever the fuck.

>>88650166
the kind that make you think and really dazzle your nog
>>88650247
pointing out a double standard is a sign that we hate women?

>>88647052
how do you know what the actual form of a shape shifter is to begin with?

>>88647052

I think it's wierd and skeevy to fuck your shapeshifter girl while she's in the guise of someone you know.

>>88650272
Who started this meme? I have seen it in too many shapeshifter stories. Do you think dmitri smerdyakov puts out for anyone?

nah, even scale fags need human like curves and there is always % ratio, MM is full on xeno

>>88650418
even with softer edges and rounder form (less harp angles) it would only be okish in some artstyles

>>88650475
>wierd and skeevy
Sounds like Ms. Martian.

Xavin. In fact he was a boy until his arranged fiance said she was a lesbian.

If I could turn into Superman at will and fuck my gf, you bet I would.

>>88650166
If a dude-martian suggested a name from his favorite show to his crush, and later shapeshifted to what he saw as a more attractive dude, I don't really think we'd get double standards. The opposite, even, since it'd be a dude shown with insecurities and needing approval.
The mind reading would get some flak, but it wasn't really okay with either gender.

>>88650541
I do prefer human curves on my lizard and alien women but I can tell you right now I'd fuck that. I jerked off to the moon once, I can get it up for about anything.

Oh please

Get me to empathize with this thing and I'll be impressed with your writing

>>88653094

Turning into a hot celebrity is one thing, but turning into someone you KNOW is crossing some lines that really shouldn't be crossed, unless you know they'd be okay with it.

>>88647052

If you're talking about an alien or other creature that naturally has shapeshifting powers, they probably don't identify as strongly with their "own" appearance as a human being would. They may not think any more of changing their body than you or I would think of changing our clothes to something our partners would find sexier.

If it's a human who just got shapeshifting a month ago, then yeah, you're right.

As a human, if I ever got shapeshifting abilities, I would be using it with women all the time.

Not as a human, but still.

Exactly. It's be no different than putting on a different outfit.

Pretty fucking sure a shapeshifter would not have ANY of its identity tied to its body.

>>88647052
To a shapeshifter their physical apperance is just a suit.

>>88650357
>there are some ways our identity is tied to our bodies
That's because we're NOT shapeshifters. To a shapeshifter, changing your body would be even more casual than changing clothes is to a human.
