Only once. One of the players had came out and started transition in the middle of a campaign that spanned a few years. The GM asked him if he wanted to change his character to a dude or if he maybe always wanted the character to be a dude in the first but just didn't feel comfortable with because he still presented as a woman when the campaign started. So yeah, what we reached at was the party wizard getting a magic transition potion instead of retconing anything.

I'm in a campaign where I'm playing a genderswapped faelock, mostly played for comedy. The whole thing was a result of fae tricksome mischief and is a constant source of amusement for the rest of the party- Possibly because he was never particularly masculine in the first place.

I ran a supers campaign once where one of the PCs was a 40ish guy that could transform into a 16ish magical girl.

When offered a free chance, in character, to shuffle his abilities around in a way that would let him be a young man with magical powers, he opted to become a full time magical girl.

Which boggled my fucking mind, because the player made a big deal once about wanting the character to spend more time as a guy. Then why did he bring a character to the game that only had useful abilities as their alter ego?!

As for the standard sex changing girdle or the like, no, never come up.

>>50034138
I've had a character get body-swapped, but both characters involved were human males so it wasn't quite as weird.

Back in 2e, we had a dm that would leave magic items that changed gender in treasure because we had player who went up and would put them on without testing them out or giving them a once over.

Only time was in one game where two characters changed genders.

One was a DMPC shapeshifter who would frequently change genders to the point where no one was really surprised anymore.

Other was my PC, who was basically an intelligent genderless robot who constructed genitals of both sexes for himself that was used a few times, citing it as a learning experience.
>>
>>50034138
>but has anyone actually seen it in a real game they have played

Absolutely. It's half the reason I play.

Diagnosed with Gender identity disorder from two different shrinks back in 1987-88, and had it more or less beaten into submission (literally, not figuratively) by parents until I was in my late 20s, married, with a kid, and far too late to do anything meaningful about it (and I'd NEVER do something to deprive my kid of his dad; it's not about my happiness, but his). Getting to "transition" in my RPGs is often my sole happy time during the week. Of course, I play with a bunch of right-wingers, so I can't just play a girl in the first place, but when this stuff gets thrown into the game to make someone uncomfortable as a joke, I try hard to make sure it happens to me.

>It's not even about magical realming. It's about portraying somebody who gets to live part of a life I should have but won't/cant. Having to deal with that difference in character just makes me happy, not hard.

Happend one time on a roll20 game guy played a Johnny Bravo type bard whose shtick was he would constantly flirt expecting to get rejected. And if not he would just puss out and come out with some excuse why he could not perform.

Was kinda funny but i guess the dm got annoyed or something and had some witch turn him into a chick. we all kinda just laughed it off including the bard. But then many sessions later the bard used stuff like remove curse, break enchantment which cost him quite a bit out of character wealth but they didn't work.

Eventually the DM told him he needed a Wish to reverse the change. We were level 7 so it was gonna be long time before he got something like that so the player just retired his character. DM kinda tried to convince him to stay with the character, Bard told us the DM planned it out, it was supposed to be some character arc that would end with him turning back into a guy or staying as a girl at the end of the game his choice. Bard guy didn't like it so he just rerolled a more serious Fighter. There was some salt after that and after a few more arguments game broke up, still it lasted for like half a year.
>>
Our group hasn't had any true genderswapping, but my character used magic to appear as a woman to "seduce" a dwarf into giving our group gunpowder to clear a blocked path that nobody wanted cleared but us. Eventually used the same disguise to lure him into a trap where some (pixies? dryads? I forget) took him in for eternal pleasure. They needed someone, and our DM thought that was a good solution to the puzzle, and one he hadn't thought of. Half-expected us to attack them.

I ran into the same kind of issues with the crew I ran with a while back. It's kinda hard finding a group that won't give you a massive pile of shit because of who you are. Well, it's hard when your usual group of friends won't play trpgs.

>I'd NEVER do something to deprive my kid of his dad; it's not about my happiness, but his
God tier parent. Literally.

I'd recommend you look for another group, though, one that's at very LEAST open to the idea of a player playing a character of the opposite sex. You don't have to leave your current group; just see if you can find another group on Roll20 or something so you can get your identity struggles out of your system. Roleplay really does help with that kind of thing; try to find a place where you can easily use it for those purposes.
>>
>>50034138
Haven't encountered it yet but if it happened to one of my current PCs I don't think they would mind much. One is a Zapp Brannigan expy who is focusing on building a mercantile empire another is a mutant psyker in a 40k game and my D&D character is a slightly grumpy svirfneblin druid who could probably change back.

None of them strike me as too concerned with their gender except perhaps the first one...

I have never seen it happen in a real game that wasn't low-key part of somebody's magical realm.

It should be noted there's a distinction between someone with gender dysphoria and legitimate medical/psych issues, and those that just get a charge out of it. Either because they have a weird perception of what "being" the opposite gender really is and means, or because they want to become martyrs to their own enjoyment of being queer.

And not only do they want to enjoy it, they want you to interact with it. They want to rub it right up in your face and make you play along with it.

I've had players try and work mpreg into my games, I've had players try and work gender-transformer-falling-in-love-with-other-PCs into my games. More often than not, it's a bunch of self-righteous white girls whom are unhealthily obsessed with the sexualities of gender transformd people, or creepy boys that think becoming a girl means they get to be entitled little moe shits.

In general I think it's inappropriate magical realm territory, and I don't even tolerate it anymore. I'm playing games to raid dungeons and have fun stories to tell, not be present as Sir TuCute gets to have us all play audience to The Orky Horror Picture Show and act like it's you who has the problem when they "wink sexily" at you and you grimace at the table. I'm not here so Sue E. Hamplanet can make Yaoi Dad and Uke Junior into characters that mine talk to and interact with with their incestual relationship a fucking plot line.

It's like, holy shit dude. Would you try this magical realm shit at a 40K game by revealing your commisar is a girl in boys clothing during battle for no fucking reason? No. Because it'd stop gameplay. So you try and choose a medium that may tolerate your shit for "narrative" purposes.

Yes, we had two guys who had a bromance kinda going on, one of them gets buttfucked (methaporically) by a magical entity that grants him powers in exchange that he has to BE basically a silver age perfect superhero (CG kind of hero) while doing it (he's a LE dhampir), eventually the other guy decides to stick his face in a magical hat that gets rooted on his face, so to save his ass we end up getting help from a pervy wizard that changes him into a girl, which is a big no-no for everyone ic (ooc we're laughing) specially the dhampir because he don't fuck with magic like that.

happened to my character, a Lizardman sent on diplomatic work to a major trade hub that go side tracked by quest stuff. While inspecting the bed chambers of a ruined city we found a few potions of gender change, as my character was a fighter/barbarian he had no clue what they were, the Alchemist and Wizard both identified and decided not to inform me, they told me they were potions of cure light wounds, discolored by time but still good.

I ended up quaffing it while fighting a pare of necromancer bards, was a rather humiliating time and I ended up having to send a letter to my wife and kids about it, have yet to receive a reply on the matter, my character did change but more the result of me trying to be presentable in foreign nations and being the only character with common sense.

The Closest call happened when I was nearly enthralled by a guy who was using a potion that basically does what Axe claims to do, Our Cleric was there to get me to resist. the DM says he may be ending the Campaign soon, so I'm not sure how I intend to conclude the character, internalize it and pick a new name at last, or seek a cure once the other pressing matters are handled.
>>
>>50034858
I've personally have had something akin to gender identity disorder, I think (can't get it diagnosed cause I'm a poor boy), so I feel you. Luckily, my group is full of young guys who don't care. One will always joke that for every game I'll roll up a female character. It's not every time thst I do this, but I'm happiest playing a female character.
I hope you find a group that lets you play as a female. I can honestly say, it's very liberating.
>>
>>50034138

The one time I've seen it played was against my own character actually, a Father who was on search for his three children. A pair of twins was genderswapped in an effort to fool my investigations, mainly by someone's whose coffee I pissed in.
>>
Only once. The DM decided to run our group through the Tomb of Horrors. I was playing a Wood Elf Ranger.I'm pretty sure one of the players at our table had played it before; seeing how said person wouldn't go into a certain room, and decided to push my happy ass inside to investigate it. Some justice came of it right after they stopped the now evil, and now female wood elf from turning them into pin cushions.

The player that pushed me was sucked into a portal leading to the Elemental Plane of Fire. I was later teleported outside of the the dungeon; stripped of my items, and clothes.

About a year and a half ago I ran a pathfinder game for a university group. I caught one of the players with a belt of gender change since it was a lighthearted campaign.

Played in an evil campaign where one PC was sired by a shapeshifted succubus (before incubi got their own stats), and was always very androgynous. Basically a trap/drag queen blackguard enhanced with magic items.

And then we raided a girls correctional school to ransom a few back to their parents. One had a father that refused, because the girl was actually his youngest son and such a failure at the fathers ideals that he tricked the kid into a belt of gender change so he could hopefully be usefull for political marriage instead. Said son/daughter was not happy about this.

>>50034858

Ha, we had a guy who always did this at the table, too. I've been running RPGs since secondary school, and this was a Junior College group. He was a weird, creepy fucker, but every time he played a female character, the other boys would mock him relentlessly for being an 'aqua' (i.e. effeminate).

He eventually had a nervous breakdown, and he's still committed. I'm glad I didn't enable him, because there was clearly a lot that was wrong with him. (Sodomy's a crime in my country, so he's fortunate he didn't actually act like a homosexual.)

I once played very androgynous social infiltrator adept in Shadowrun. She practically skirted on a thin line that separates men and women. Thanks to her adept powers she could change her face and voice to be suitable to most situations.

Her father was a sarariman for Mitsuhama in Seattle. He got married to local woman so she is Half-Japanese elf. Due to corp shenanigans her father got fired and lost his own and his families SINs and they had to move to Puyallup. There as seven years old girl she learned to not trust anybody. Being a latent adept and quite beautiful young girl is not a great combination.

As a young adult she used her charisma (and bioengineered pheromones) to get in all kinds of parties, galas etc. Places where middle class or richer people go. She would leech off both women and men who she managed to approach. Really not the most glamorous life, but a life that would support her and her family.

She got into shadowrunning in a bit off a accident. As she was in a local Stuffer Shack buying food a frantic woman with a child ran in and minute later group of armed thugs after her. (Food Fight!) As thugs were dispatched by middle-class looking dwarf, gigantic troll and apparently a shaman of some sort she took care off the girl.

That is sadly practically what we got to play. The group kinda died after GM had to do IRL stuff a lot and couldn't run. Still she is there as a reusable character.

Shame for what? You don't work towards being gay. It's not an accomplishment, but it's not a mistake either. Gay Pride is a stupid phrase, but shaming them for what they are, instead of who, is equally retarded.

>>
>>50038336
>Gay Pride is a stupid phrase, but shaming them for what they are, instead of who, is equally retarded.

That's actually why Gay Pride has become the thing it is, you know.

The idea behind Gay Pride is to be proud of what you are, it's not so much a circlejerk as it is an expression of how homosexuality is not some shameful, dark thing you need to hide.

Of course, the thing you can argue now is Gay Pride has left the purview of empowerment and embedded itself in culture; in places where homosexuality is normalized, it will continue to be celebrated because the parade of last year was a commercial hit and the parade of this year stands to do the same.

This holds true for any sort of Pride movement, and it is why "white pride" or "straight pride" movements never attract crowds or rapidly devolve into the hatred of other colors; because for all the bluster, straight, white people simply don't have decades of internalized oppression (soft or hard) they need to release in a cathartic display of expressing themselves.

For being born abnormal, obviously. If you're born with a sexual attraction to animals or children, don't you feel ashamed of yourself? Like, you know there's something wrong with you, and that what you are is disgusting.

If people are shaming you for stealing, you can stop stealing.

If people are shaming you for lying, you can stop lying.

If people are shaming you for writing racist stuff, you can stop writing racist stuff.

If people are shaming you for being weird you can...? Not do fucking anything about it, the shame has no purpose.

If you shame somebody for something they cannot change, you are hurting people for no good reason. I am not against hurting people where there is a reason, e.g. sending a man to prison for stealing, because that has a purpose - making people steal less. But you cannot hurt people so much they stop being weird.

Unless I think it would really trigger a player, I add a gender coinflip to the reincarnation spell. I think it is kinda silly that it shuffles up DNA to roll a new race but not a new sex. I mean, I understand the decision in that it could make a lot of players uncomfortable, but it wouldn't really bother my group so I add that extra bit of randomization.

Lots of things are 'abnormal', like being left handed, or being color blind. That doesn't make it unnatural, or 'wrong and disgusting'.

Call them damaged or whatever other derogatory term to equate them to sub-humans, I don't care. But calling it shameful is stupid.

What about people with downs? Are they also disgusting abnormal beings that should be ashamed of who they are?

>What about people with downs? Are they also disgusting abnormal beings that should be ashamed of who they are?
Many (non-/pol/, or at least /leftypol/!) people think they should be aborted and put out of their misery before they are born.
>>
Yes. I once played in a game where magic was a lot less standard fireball shit and more freaky deaky reality-bending, so I wound up changing people's genders more than a few time.

You might not think much of it. It's not like getting zapped by a lightning bolt and taking hit point damage. But imagine, if you will, you're a medieval soldier, and you're charging into battle, and some old robed wizened fuck swings orbs of light around and then boom you ain't got no dick. You might be battle hardened, and you might have been through a ton of crazy shit, but you ain't never been woman'd before.

I dunno, I had fun playing it. It felt like magic did so much in that game and yet I never felt like I was soloing shit. Sure, I'd change soldiers into women and they'd be confused and fucked up and distracted but it'd be my party and me killing them off.

>>50039536

>What about people with downs? Are they also disgusting abnormal beings that should be ashamed of who they are?

It's pointless, they have no capacity to feel shame. They should be aborted, however, because their existence is suffering.

Unless you're this cunt.

Twice I can recall, once the BBEG was leading not a woman-friendly force, we gender changed him and his followers lost respect for him. He actually ended up repenting and asking to come with us after that since we were the only ones who treated him with respect still.

Other time, a bit weirder but there was like a prophecy that a PC descendant of a great hero and possessing fated blood, would have her womb cursed and forced to bear only demons I think it was, or at the very least very evil fated kids. So we turned her into a guy which outright voided the curse since her uterus up and vanished.

What the fuck?

If you were born with no immune system or you were born retarded, it would be better if you were aborted. Your life would be short and awful, and you would cause your parents constant misery.

A pre-natal test means that no child ever has to be born with Down's Syndrome again. You're aware that the child will be FUCKED UP, right? He will have no life worth mentioning. Aborting him is merciful for all involved!

You'd be surprised how many people there are that think a woman should be allowed to abort whenever she feels like it, but she's a complete monster if she aborts because the kid's got Downs or might come out Trans*.

This even extends to genetic modification, so many people are horrified at the prospect of "fixing" people that they're willing to violate their own dogma to do it. Which of course isn't unique to this and has been done many times throughout history, but seeing it in action is... Jarring.

>>
>>50041172

I can understand why some people would be really iffy about genofixing kids in the womb, but my take on it probably isn't why they are so worried.

There are obvious cases, like Downs, where there is no upside to having it and I can't imagine anyone being upset if they were later in life told that they were going to be born with Downs but the doctor fixed it.

Trans is a cloudier issue than that. Do you change their brain structure so that they never want to be the opposite gender in the first place? Or do you change their sex in the womb so they get born with the body their brain says they want? Both have the potential to backfire spectacularly and leave someone in just as bad a position as you were trying to avoid or worse, and you are blindly changing who they would have been as a person on a fundamental level. Thats... worrying. Not everyone is going to be okay with that.

In my case, I was born with a thankfully mild case of Autism. It was a challenge for me to overcome it when I was younger, but aside from a few situations and circumstances that I can avoid with a little planning I can lead a mostly normal life. But at the same time, that Autism is pretty central to what makes me tick. A lot of my interests and skills can be traced in that direction. If you 'cured' my Autism, I have no fucking idea whether or not I would be recognizably the same person. I would probably refuse the treatment on those grounds, given the choice.
At the same time, my case was mild. There are people who have it far worse than I do who might choose differently.
I don't know where the line should be drawn, or if you really can make a meaningful distinction at the time when you still have the opportunity to perform the genofixing. There just isn't enough information to tell in many cases whether you are improving this kids life or just drastically changing it.
>>

There just isn't enough information to tell in many cases whether you are improving this kids life or just drastically changing it.

The issue here is that the child doesn't have a life before the genofixing, they're still in the womb and still more a "blank slate" than a newborn. The fetus with mild autism that was "cured" in the womb will never know they had autism, and would never even fathom the thought of "would I rather have that condition than what I have now?"

It's like the whole thing with deaf people; people born deaf and raised deaf or people who become deaf would obviously identify with the condition and live their life with deafness as a major facet of their being, but what about the baby developing deaf but gene-fixed to have healthy ole ears? Is that wrong?

I suppose what I'm trying to say is genetic modification is not here to "fix" our current generation of autistic or Downs kids, genetic modification is here to make sure our current generation of autistic or Downs kids is the LAST generation of autistic or Downs kids.

You can't abort a grown-ass man, but you can abort a fetus.

Have you ever met a Korean?
Aggressive, racist, two-faced, shameless opportunists who bear grudges for eternity and have a ridiculous pride in their fictional national history and "culture" cobbled together from Japanese and Chinese culture and padded out with American media.
Because of a propagandistic, jingoistic government that's technically a dictatorship (but don't tell this to the Americans), the obsessive drive to make good on a history that they all know somewhere is made up from scratch, a brutal workload pushed on them by state-controlled businesses trying to emulate Japan and a completely fucked culture that's the result of a country that was literally at the level of Cambodia before Japan (!!) brought the country up to First World standards, Koreans are some of the most thoroughly unlikable people in the world.
They're basically what conspiracy theorists make the Jews out to be - extremely racist and insular, trying to undermine another country from the inside by using "liberal" norms to undermine its culture, contacts up to the armpits in American and especially West Coast media, historically revisionist and greedy to the point of being farcically so (Korean business is a whole new realm of logic, with state-controlled studios being paid to rearrange the most popular Japanese and American hit media into "original" Korean versions, after which the government gets the other conglomerates to buy up millions and millions of copies that only exist on paper, resulting in a minor state-approved hit ostensibly selling ten million copies in days).
And yet, US propaganda - supported by anti-Japanese right-wingers and "progressive" "anti-racism" left-wingers - continuously fails to report on the constant plagiarism, industrial espionage, crime seeding, territorial theft, propaganda, cultural subversion and dozens of other crimes casually perpetrated by the Lower Koreans.

>>50042104

If its their magical realm, they justified it so well that the entire table let it pass.

I was running a spy/action thriller game, modern era but with occasional superscience. The players were a bunch of specialists taking contracts and doing mercenary things. One of them was ex military, one of them was a disillusioned bomb maker/former terrorist, one was a white collar criminal on the run from the law with some useful hacking skills, and then we had Doctor Cho.

Doctor Cho was a geneticist that specialized in human augmentation. He has done a bunch of unethical experiments meant to make humans into "better humans", but when he published his findings the resulting backlash ruined his life. He was the medic of the team, but he was always super bitter about his life falling apart because the rest of the world was too hung up on the controversy of meddling with human genes to appreciate his genius.

The main plot had breaks in it for side contracts and missions, which I tried to tailor so that each of the PCs eventually got a mission where their skills had a chance to really shine.

For Doc Cho, they got a mission to rescue one of Cho's old colleagues (a similarly brilliant geneticist) who has been kidnapped by some shadowy paramilitary group.

They finally track down the base he is at, and it turns out that it was neo-nazis. They were crazy radicals who had ex nazi scientists working on a virus that would turn people aryan in some twisted plot to purge humanity of its lesser races in the most merciful way possible. Their original geneticist had died of old age leaving the project incomplete, and they needed someone new to finish his work. So they kidnapped Cho's colleague and locked him in the basement.
>>
>>50034913

Funny, because that actually happened to Johnny Bravo in one episode. But in all seriousness, what did the DM expect when he made such a long lasting change to the characters core concept? Maybe the player shouldn't have been playing a joke character in the first place, but who knows?
>>
>>50042647

The nazi guy had done most of the work, creating the virus that would act as a delivery mechanism. It was getting the genetic template right without killing the host that they needed help with. So they basically blackmailed the guy with the threat of releasing the virus in its unfinished state unless he fixed it for them. They would get their aryan world either way, but unless the guy helped 60% of those infected would die.

The kidnapped scientist had fixed up the virus as best as he could so it would be less lethal, but he had been sabotaging it in other ways to stall for time. Because turning everyone in the world into the same genetic aryan template would chop our biodiversity down to dangerously low levels and leave us open for a deadly disease making us fucking extinct.

Anyway, they go in and kill the nazis with a couple of well placed trap bombs and and some followup gunfights. What they find after they are done is the laboratory setup to create this virus, and some kind of elaborate dead-drop plan where there were other cells around the world waiting for packages of the virus to release simultaneously once it was finished.

So I basically handed the geneticist player this fancy new set of toys to see what Cho would do with it. What would he do with a gene-altering retrovirus? Just use it for private experimentation and buffing the party? Or would he try to release something on a mass scale, and could he get the rest of the party to go along with it?
>>
>>50042686

He didn't even try. As soon as he realized what he was on to, he pretended like it was just insane nazi superscience and waited for an opportunity to gas the rest of the party and lock them up in some holding cells in the nazi base.

Only then did he reveal his plan to me: he was going to engineer a much simpler version of the virus to change just one chromosome, XY to XX. Compared to what the nazis were trying to do this would be cake.

His reasoning was that mankind was not yet ready to appreciate his genius because messing with the human genome was considered taboo. So he was going to give them no choice. By releasing the virus and leaving the world without any men, the world would have to start producing test tube babies to survive. At which point screening for genetic defects was going to naturally become commonplace as part of the process, and the idea of genetically improving humanity would take hold on its own. If you have to go to a doctor to get a baby made anyway, surely you don't want to get an inferior baby.

Even if the scientists focused on reversing the virus, it would take them years without access to the original and they would have to perform their own experiments into human genome manipulation, accomplishing the same ends.

By the time that the other players escaped from the holding cells Cho had already injected himself and shipped packages to the cells in Europe and China. Since Cho never explained to them what he was doing they didn't know what was going on until he started to change and by then the other PCs had already been infected from contact with him.

So they killed Lady Cho, ended up transformed anyway, and after another adventure where the sex change stuff was going on in the background on the news we decided to end the game because Cho had sort of derailed the world and thrown the whole plot for a loop.

Not the outcome I expected.

I appreciate the hell out of everybody saying this, but it's Cincinnati. It took 7 years to find a group in the first place, and looking around as I do every so often, I don't see alternatives for somebody who isn't a college student. There's some wargaming groups in the area, but if you're over 30 and want to do RPGs, there's basically nothing available publically posted at any game shops (none of which have RPG space - it's 40K all the way down, with one store having a rogue Battletech group).

Affirmative Action is a band-aid feel-good measure that doesn't do jack shit to help the average black person nor does it particularly inconvenience the typical white. Any white person that loses a position to a black man due to affirmative action will quite easily find a job somewhere else, and that black man who is hired purely on the color of their skin will not only flounder within their field but are individuals that won't heal the whole - a good example of this is the oft-cited chart that shows how black kids with low GPAs can get into medical school while white kids need more impressive GPAs. This may seem unfair to you until you realize not only are the number of black kids applying to medical school low to begin with (and thus a white kid who can get in, will get in) but consider the demographics of first/second-year drop-outs and how the vast, vast majority of them are the very same black kids who got in just to meet a quota.
>>
>>50043396
Yes, yes.
It doesn't matter that the "treatment" isn't actually truly complete, requires ages of expensive maintenance, further exacerbates behavioral disorders by playing right into them and is an insane burden on any state's budget. It doesn't matter that gender dysphoria is comorbid with a large number of mental illnesses, which aren't cured or treated because it's discrimination. It doesn't matter that the subculture is giving false impressions of what's even possible with science to further their own political goals. It doesn't matter that there are cheaper treatments, for example basic human decency.
All of this is swept away in the current of people who think that declaring oneself something one is not and cannot truly become makes one deserving of special treatment from everyone else, bothering the people around one by expecting them to turn their experience with human interaction on its head just to pamper you.
The idea that a human being "deserves" an expensive, time-consuming, disruptive and failure-prone treatment to have a symptom of their mental illness genuflected to is pathological. It's sacrificing society's surplus, money and perfectly functional norms on the altar of mindless postmodern individual-worship.
You know what's the cheapest solution for someone who expects the rest of society to go so far out of their way just to please a symptom of a mental illness? It's a .45 bullet to the back of the head, and it's only the surplus of modern society that means that leeches and garbage like you aren't given that treatment.
When there is not a single sick, injured, starving or poor person in the entire United States, you can start using taxpayer money on worshipping the delusions of mentally ill people and over-entitled abortions of the postmodern age. Until then, rest assured that you are, in fact, a criminal taking money and surplus out of the hands of the people who need it.
Peace of mind is a luxury, and life is a favor.

Buzzwords are nice, aren't they?
Convince yourself that work ethic doesn't matter. Convince yourself that we live in a post-scarcity society. Convince yourself that anyone who disagrees with you is just stuck in the past.
We could have had a good modern society, but it's gotten stuck in the mire of self-worship while productive jobs are being abandoned in favor of becoming a massage therapist or a counselor.
People like you are the reason that the global economy is falling apart because of outsourcing, lobbying and rampant corruption - because the pampered mindset of a postmodern human means that wages are rising the more people think they deserve.
You're living in a temporary bubble created by the hard work and suffering of the people who came before you. You're a mewling trust-fund baby grown up on the work of your parents and grandparents. You haven't known responsibility because your ass has been wiped for you all your life, and you deny that the world isn't an infinity engine just to perpetuate that delusion.
At some point, your special tutors and counselors will die off. At some point, the people who work the dirty and dangerous jobs will die off. At some point, the workforce will tear itself apart over frills and luxuries. Things don't last forever, and while the work has been done in advance for you, your turn is coming.
Postmodern humanoids have no idea of how much the rest of society goes through to raise a completely normal child, much less one who demands incredibly expensive and time-consuming "treatments" with a risk of putting them into welfare-demanding mental crises.
Your peace of mind is not a given. Your luxury is not a fact of the universe. Work isn't magically done by the gnomes and the Chinese, and if you're not willing to work, you'll have to starve at some point.

My gm had us encounter a gender changing tree in a nature spirit grotto of nymphs and satyrs. I have a story.

One of the recurring npcs of our home town was a female guard who was mostly straight. My (male) ranger was friends with her. Playing DnD 5e, I took noble background with the flaw of carnal pleasures. Despite this, they never banged. In this same town was another npc. She was laying low, trying to avoid someone in another city, and she wrote trashy romance novels under a pen name. The novels' protag was based on the hunky town guard captain, and the guard npc loved them. After a run in with a mindflayer my character had short range telepathy and discovered the npc was the author and told his friend, the guard. She immediately wanted her books signed. I accidently talked the three characters into a threesome. Afterward the author made it clear that she didn't believe in love anymore and she likes dick, so guard npc was double crushed. Weeks after this the ranger stumbled on the gender changing tree with others, but decided to not tell the guard because he knew she would do something stupid. Guard found out from another player and immediately went to go get a dick. Afterward the guard hid -his- identity and had awful sex with the author (rolled badly). Author ended up discovering what had happened and complained to the guard captain, guard almost got fired for the whole thing. It was a mess all around and as my character was busy fighting a cursed book (and avoiding the genderbent guard, who he was maybe in love with and didn't know how to feel about now) he was less than helpful.
>>
>>50044975
Oh shit, I forgot the best/worst part. The genderbend tree was found a week after a full mtf person joined the game. The gm had no idea they were trans. She, myself, and another player were the only ones who knew and were also the most involved in between session, online RP, which is where all this happened other than the initial finding of the tree.

Have you ever looked at the statistical effects of transition? Never mind whether you're "playing into their delusions"; most mental illnesses we can't really treat the root causes of anyway.

In terms of actual quality-of-life improvements vs side effects, if you view being trans as a psychological disorder, transition is practically the most effective psychological treatment invented. If the people currently on, say, antipsychotics, or lithium, could have their lives improved that much by instead taking a treatment that mild, the inventor would win worldwide acclaim.

Across the board, transition works, and certainly works far better than trying to convince people to be happy with the body they've got.

Does it magically solve all their problems? No. But it makes a hell of a lot of their problems a hell of a lot better.

(And that fucking study from the every asshole cites without reading beyond the abstract? No shit you'll find that SRS increases suicide, if your control group is people who don't get SRS *because they don't have gender dysphoria in the first place*. If you actually looked at before/after for actual trans people, suicidality goes way the fuck down. Still high, because it's not magic and trans people are likely to be fucked up for other reasons, but way lower than any other intervention that might be used instead.)

>>
>>50045991
nah, fuck tumblr.

They're going about it the wrong way. The more we turn issues of gender into special snowflake feel-good nonsense, the more we're drawing unnatural attention to it, which actually just makes it harder to normalize the concept of non-dichotomous gender.

Gender is and always will be something that's up to the individual to determine and express without requiring any doting, judgement, or outside pressure of any sort. Anything else will pollute the creation of the self and create hierarchies of internalized inferiority
>>
>>50046279
"Don't accept any stats with terrible methodology" is pretty much Lesson 1 in responsible research in the social, psychological, and medical science fields, and also Lessons 2, 3, 7 through 18, 34, and 36 through 57. Most of the rest are "Beware the man of one study."

You can find at least three studies to support literally any view you like, and it's become increasingly apparent as the replication crisis mounts that most studies are crap. You have to at least look at the methodology and read further than the abstract to judge what a paper is actually saying and whether it's a quality source or not, and a sweep of the literature as a whole is necessary to draw any solid conclusions on a subject.

It's pretty fucking simple. You decide on what the hell you are (or don't, because it's a pretty esoteric subject that requires some thinking) and leave it at that.

No, because then you get all the college tumblrites who scream about how they're demiboys and you need to respect their totally ridiculous and made up bullshit purely to make themselves feel special.

This is why the attack helicopter copypasta exists. You can't just say "I am a genderfluid demi-futa" because that's not a fucking thing. You are not a fucking demi-futa just because you say so. I'm not going to say there aren't in-between genders or that some people feel like they're female one day and male the next, or if they feel like they're equally comfortable being either, but the truth is that most of this crazy gender shit only exists for the same reasons Mary Sues exist. To make the individual feel super special awesome in a completely artificial and superficial way. And then someone comes along that doesn't buy into their fantasy, and because they never learned how to not be a complete sperg and that people can, gasp, call them out on their bullshit, they start fucking witch hunts. And then people actually get harmed by it.

tl;dr: If you want to claim you're a gender that doesn't exist and never has and then throw a tantrum when people don't take it seriously, you're not as special and awesome a person as you think you are.

You're right in theory but wrong in practice. People use gender as a cornerstone of communication in english.

So the author wrote trashy romance novels. Gm and other player were besties and would often talk about the game since the gm had lots of npc stuff that never came up. For instance, those novels. It was common knowledge among the players that she was an author and we knew it was vaguely Twilight level stupid, but nothing specific other than that. I and the other player however talked to the gm a lot between sessions and learned loads of background, like how the protag of the books was based on the guard captain, and how the books were basically "hero climbs bdsm tower to save woman, only to end up staying as succubus' willing fuck boy." I did not know the books featured threesomes. Friend and gm had apparently established this to be true.

So anyway, Rent, my ranger, and 25k, his friend, go to see Sif, the author at her room at the inn. Rent hasn't read the books so he politely inquires as to what they're about. 25k is too flutterpaited to say anything and just nods along. As the conversation continues Rent asks something which gets taken the wrong way by both the gm and friend, who is quietly reading along. Sif thinks Rent is insinuating she shouldn't write erotica if she has no experience, and Sif decides to shut him up. Also she is drunk. I failed the passive perception to notice this, but gm told friend in a whisper so it was legit. Sif starts being suggestive, and a baffled Rent flirts right back while 25k just gets redder. Sif whips her shirt off, fade to black, make rolls. 25k rolled first and managed something like a 9 total. Rent managed a 17 total (he never rolled badly for sex. Ever. Roll20 decreed him a sex god I guess.) and Sif passed her check to not be pregnant. Afterward they dress and Sif discusses how she thinks love is bullshit and breaks 25k's heart, setting up her "get a dick" plan.
As for my trans friend she took it well enough. The gm is a self-admitted asshole and said some pretty rude things about trans people so that was awkward.

Played a game with a guy who was actually playing a trans character. The character (who was rolling in cash) was introduced as someone who'd had a one-night stand with another member of the party.

I seriously don't understand where the whole "LOL trannies chop their dicks off" meme came from.

MtF trans individuals do not have their penises amputated. Doing that would make it impossible to achieve orgasms.

What happens is that the penis is actually split down the middle, and inverted. Yes, turned inside out. Then the scrotum is sliced open, the testicles removed, and the sack split in half and sewn around the edges of the base of the inverted penis to make labia.

You are aware of the fact that the human female brain, and the human male brain, are so vastly different from each other that you can identify the physical sex of a corpse even if all you have left of it is the brain, right?

When trans people say they are one sex trapped in a body that is the opposite sex they mean it quite literally.

Autopsies done DECADES ago, long before hormone replacement therapy even existed, found several male cross dressers with brains that were identical to the brains of human females in every way.

I don't think a transperson need to change their character's gender just because of that. What's so awfully complex in roleplaying as someone from the opposite gender? It's not like you are roleplaying some cosmic Lovecraftian abomination with completely alien logic and moral concepts.
>>
>>50046805
Because having your genitals sliced and diced is a lot less physically dangerous than having all of your body fat completely reduced.

It's like comparing someone who has a sucking chest wound to someone who has a leech.

Gender dysphoria is a leech, it slowly and surely sucks all of the happiness out of your life. Your self esteem, your motivation, your will to live. There is nothing you can do to remove that leech. It is a part of you forever. But what if by amputating a single finger, you can make all the bad feelings that leech gives you go away? Yes, it is technically self mutilation. Yes, it is a horrible stone age solution. But there currently are no better solutions. Nothing that has a permanent, lasting effect, that doesn't resort to heavy duty mind altering drugs that are the chemical equivalent of frontal lobe lobotomies.

Now compare this to the sucking chest wound. Amputating a single finger isn't going to solve the problem, because the solution is thankfully straightforward. A sucking chest wound can be cured, the same way a broken bone can be cured.

But that leech can never be cured. It is a part of you forever. The same way there is no cure for being a paranoid schizophrenic.

The closest I have been is making an androgynous NPC as a GM (the players ended up referring to him/her as "it", and curiosity almost made them look at his/her bloody corpse when he/she died), but I am sure most of the players wouldn't mind if I genderswapped their characters.

Yeah, unfortunately there are a number of places where the 'cure' for homosexuality was to give them involuntary sex changes.

As you can imagine, not a lot of people took that well.

A lot of studies point to those cases as evidence of transitioning correllating to suicide, which misses the point. And it also provides a pretty stark example of what can go wrong when you have people going in and making these kinds of life decisions for other people.

I'm not him, I said that already. But do you seriously need a source that says "People who were punished by being forced to take injections would have rather not been punished"?

Do you need a source for "criminals who don't want to be caught are attempting to escape punishment"? A source for "punishment is something done to people that people, generally speaking, do not like"? I'm sincerely baffled.

Indeed. Had a player get nailed with one back during the 3e days, GMs lesson tool or petty revenge depending, revenge tool for bad RPer in our case. Of course he was playing a barbarian. Dude was Conan obsessed btw, like bad, He was basically playing Conan...badly. Wouldn't have been an issue had he been doing well, Conan is awesome, he wasn't. Barbarian/Thief is hard, and he wasn't very good.
It looked almost exactly like something Conan had in some of the Art so he immediately slapped it on. And thus our GM thought a lesson had been learned. And while he did start looking over all magical items he found, or let the wizard do it, he made the best of it and tried to play Red Sonya...badly.

So no change really,

I meant how making an anorexic person thinner doesn't cure their anorexia. At best it causes them to shift the blame for their low self-esteem onto something else, and even that's rare.
>>
>>50056840

There's no answer for this because it doesn't make sense.

Gender Dysphoria is the only mental illness where "playing along" and making permanent physical changes to do so is considered as a treatment option.

It obviously isn't acceptable for anorexia as you've indicated. Sure you can make them the epitome of thin, but you can't fix their crippling self-image issues that made them anorexic in the first place.

Following people who receive that gender change surgery shows no change in the levels of depression or the terribly high trans suicide rate, indicating that there is some other major issue going unaddressed and untreated.

except there isn't, the studies showing that are usually either about;
involuntary sex chanages (as a result of extreme genital damage or from mutilation of babies with ambiguous genitalia)
or from Iran (where a compelled sex change is the only way out of punishment for homosexuality)

Ive seen it used in someone else's campaign as both a punishment for fucking around with unidentified magic kit and as a means to get the player to play outside his comfort zone. As a GM, Im not against nasty curse effects, but anything that fundamentally changes a character really should be discussed before hand.

Yeah, that's kinda bullshit GMing.

If you're allowing a joke character in the first place, it's on you to roll with the joke without getting tired of it. If you don't want to roll with the joke for sessions and sessions, talk to the player up front (or worst-case, out of session).

Arbitrarily changing the fundamental nature of a PC is a bad.

Removing gender removes woman - how does everyone being women result from there being no women?

The first concern being female clothing.
If we did have our gay communist utopia there would be no such thing as frilly fucking nonsense.
Only utilitarian clothes.

>makes everyone into a woman.

This would be an improvement anyway. Women are better suited for the modern work and learning environment. Sit quietly while you learn, conform and do what you're told, and be an obedient worker capable of multitasking when needed. Every positive trait in a student and worker is a stereotypically feminine one, and now that the education gap has been reversed women are just as capable (if not statistically more so) of leading the way forward in science and mathematics as well.

Irrational, short-tempered, dangerous, perpetually angry men with minimal attention spans are functionally obsolete. Aside from the 1% of you who are minimally worthy to be genetic donors, we can do away with the lot.

>it's not really your faults; testosterone is a poison. You can't help it, but it doesn't change the fact that every personality trait needed to succeed in modern life is now better found on a woman than a man.
>>
>>50062755
Teamwork's still important in the modern workplace. Try to have multiple women converse with each other, and each one will be actually holding a separate conversation with each woman. Get a bunch of guys together, and they'll all be having one conversation with an emphasis on shutting up the outlier.
>>

since we've adjusted the education style to reduce physicalicality.

jesus, some people forget women are every bit as much monkey as we are. Incidently from what heard found women might be more willing to initiate physical aggression upon a person than a man if the domestic reports regarding lesbianism and a couple asian counties are standing

I am also a different anon. >>50062511 was written by me. Sorry about not making that clear.

In response to your actual post, though, well - that's interesting. I typed "Female to Male" in order to imply that the other anon (the one you mistook me for) would, in fact, have a dick if they've finished transitioning. And yet, your response didn't take that into account at all, instead advising transAnon to conform to stereotypes associated with masculinity instead of just being what the fuck he actually is.

Women have 60% male upper bodystrength and if you're going to be a man you've got to be able to do everyfuckingphyical thing everyone wantsyoutofucking do
you try to cart around cement for your family without that dense muscle mass.
Or cart around furniture.
Or luggage.

I used magic orbs like some random anime i watched some time ago that, when stepped on, did different things to the victim including temporary gender swapping, full on race changing, soze changing and all that magical realm shit. It was a really good campaign actually. Its one of the reasons my players like when i DM. The anime was based on an old game where you had to climb a tower with 100 levels or start over if you died or failed.

As I said, it's linked primarily to the hierarchy.
Getting rid of that comes first, and is inexorably linked to gender liberation. Ask Mao about women holding up half the sky.

As for frilly nonsense, I would agree that under normal circumstances it's bourgeoisie crap, but "Communist Utopia" implies post-scarcity (Communism being that fabled final stage of Socialism)

In a post-scarcity society, impracticality could be tolerated as the material cost would be negligible and gender would have been de-spookified to the point where wearing such clothing wouldn't incur judgement.

>>50065339
I think you don't realize what a post-scarcity society would mean.

It would not mean that people would stop caring about gender. In fact it may mean that they start caring about it more.

>>50065869
Why is that?

Patriarchal tendencies began with the introduction of property (Due to the insecurity of not knowing whether or not a baby was yours)

Eliminate the concept of private property and all that goes out the window.

>>50034138
I've seen it on a couple of occasions. We found the good ol' fashioned cursed belt when we were just starting to get into D&D. I also encountered a cursed corset in a later game with a different DM, but detect magic and arcana prevented any penis deletis.

I also use alter/disguise self spells on occasion to up the disguise factor. When the city guard is looking for a 16 year old elf-boy, they don't stop to interrogate the human MILF... Well I guess they might, depending on why they're looking for him.
>>
>>50065989
Chimpanzees are "patriarchial", if by that you mean they differentiate between genders. It's a natural behavior.

>>50065989
Also, why would post-scarcity mean no private property? Rather the opposite: unique things such as art would be highly prized.

Private property in the Marxist sense of the word.
Private Property = privately owning the Means of Production (Factories, farms, mines, land, etc.)

What you're talking about is personal property, which has nothing to do with Marxist goals.
So yes, personal property would still exist post-scarcity, but not as something that could create classes or hierarchies.

>>50066525
They differentiate between sexes (genitalia)
Chimps don't have a concept of what we know as gender because gender is an abstract idea and we're the only species that has those (so far as we know)
>>
>>50035921
no. the alter ego has superpowers and is a little girl not the adult man, the man was the character's true and original form.


think of it like that time thor was a young muslim girl from newjersy.
she had to deal with the implications of occasionally transforming into a heathen deity who had a penis and was allowed to show his face in public, drive a car, etc. she craved mead and roast pig. and women to slake his barbarian lust. it was very awkward for her, she eventually surrendered the hammer to some more fitting(and white) legacy character
