In that case, neither are Trump or Cruz with their heels.

Hey Wayne, did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny?

[-] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 56 points 5 hours ago

As an immortal entity of chaos, Bugs Bunny rejects your ideas of gender norms.

[-] Ostrakon@lemmy.world 21 points 5 hours ago

Kinda reductive, no? All it takes for a man to be trans is wearing heels?

[-] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 2 points 39 minutes ago

It's like the concept of cross dressers just vanished

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 9 points 4 hours ago

Boy, imagine when some people find out why heels were invented in the first place

  • It was for horse riders, who were almost exclusively men across Eurasian cultures
[-] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 hours ago

Yes but then we discovered it makes your calves fabulous.

Then men started wearing full trous, and women started wearing high dresses and skirts, where men wore the shorts and women went full length before.

Eh, rabbit could be cis. Up to rabbit to tell us how they identify. Sometimes men like to look pretty too :3

[-] Korne127@lemmy.world 23 points 4 hours ago

Yep. I find this "female clothes => they're trans" pretty questionable. Because… clothes have no gender. Men can wear dresses and heels as well.
And that goes for cis and trans men, I also know some trans guys that just like wearing a skirt.

I am 100% cis straight man; I have been dressed up in drag more than once in my life and even went out in public with it. Its fun! Getting to wear pretty and cute outfits and whatnot.10/10 would do again.

So I totally know where Bugs is coming from in this and it is NO indication of his self-identity.

[-] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 hours ago

Was gonna say as a man that doesn't mind getting sissied for a kink scene, I'm 100% cis, and I agree with your assessment.

I agree, but I think this usually comes from a place of Bugs Bunny being many trans women's first introduction to something outside the gender norm, and so they project that back onto the character.

That, or they're t4t and Bugs dressing up made them feel funny as kids in the same way that Robinhood from that one Disney movie did with furries.

Remember when crossdressing existed?

[-] rbits@lemm.ee 1 points 3 hours ago

Agree. Bugs doesn't normally have boobs though. I feel like that's a bit different. Still doesn't have to mean someone's trans though.

Is cis a spectrum? or is that one extreme end

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 12 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

It just means "not transgender."

Someone could be a crossdresser but still be cisgender.

[-] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Is transgender a spectrum?

Cis and trans are Latin prefixes and opposites of each other - cis basically translating out to "same" and trans being "different." To be cis means to be the same gender that the doctor assigned you when you were born, while trans people transition to a gender different from their assigned gender. So you can't be on a spectrum of more trans or less trans because you're transitioning to x, y, or z.

There are spectrums that people choose from, though, if you want to get into some of the finer details. Some people use the prefix demi, meaning "partially" (like in demigod), to signify a gender that they most closely relate to but don't feel properly identifies them. Like somebody who is a demigirl most closely relates to being a woman, but doesn't feel like womanhood fits them. This is why the umbrella term non-binary exists, for people who feel like they fall somewhere outside the traditional designated roles of "man" or "woman" and more closely relate to a secret, third thing.

I don't know if you could call it a spectrum, but there are certainly more types of transgender people than cisgender. MTF, FTM, gender fluid, non-binary, and maybe even more. I wouldn't say there are degrees of transgenderism, tho. You are or you aren't.

Sexuality, on the other hand, is definitely a spectrum.

was heat stroke not a thing back then?

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago

Not as much as it is today.
