The point of bringing up Ascians is it provides the closest parallel to someone in the world of eorzea that may have had anywhere close to a concept of gender fluidity. However, its combo'd with them also being terrible people, so....yeah.

Are only trans people allowed to comment? It's not about validation (well, I guess it kind of is for trans people); people are just responding and giving their opinion. Is my opinion not valid? Are you attacking my right to exist??!??!!? /s
Some people need to educate themselves on the topic of transgender care and rights before having any concrete opinion. People should only comment on what they know to be fact as transgender care does not shorten life spans and actually lessens self-harm situations. I am cis gender and feel right at home in this thread, but I will make sure to foster an environment of inclusion here and as nicely as possible ask those of you who come here spreading negativity and incorrect information to please take your conversation to another thread.
