@TipsyTentacle gay! yourself?

@Raelynn I literally saw a skeleton hoodie for sale right after reading that and I had a slight budget crisis

but ultimately resisted. not sure if that was a win :-P

Her demon eye boots were so amazing

lol, I am wearing a demon eye bracelet right now in fact

@IrisKalmia hehe, "shootymans"

@Draekos OMG that face is so CUTE 💚💚💚

@Raelynn hell yes Esther de Groot is my fashion goddess

@starkatt also Ann Leckie had an account on Wandering.Shop at one point. I told her about how I've always wanted to be a spaceship and she liked the toot :-P

@starkatt Yes, I wouldn't assign genders to the genderless characters -- it was the fact that the narrator was eliding genders of characters from gendered societies that I was thinking of, if I recall the book correctly. I liked that :)

@starkatt Yes, though I think the dwarves aren't going to understand the difference between a gender and an aesthetic :-P

@starkatt I love that! I only read the first one and I loved how it basically left the characters gender as something you'd have to infer from their actions, rather than a label

@starkatt I love it
"dwarves aren't 'a grumpy people,' you just interrupted their regularly-scheduled community orgy"

probably birth order also affects your Elemental Gender

So I'm finally getting around to planning that RPG, and I want some cultures with rigid gender norms that do not at all line up with the male/female binary (mostly to bludgeon cis players over the head with gender-non-conforming feelings).

I'm curious if y'all have ideas!

For instance:
1. The Classical Elements are the genders, you get assigned an Element based on your parents' Elements; each has a dress code, stereotypes, social roles, etc

2. Dwarves are agender and comedically bad at gender expectations. I think they might also reproduce by carving children out of stone together

@Draekos @vahnj

yall. yall.

Think more like pink triangle shuriken, rainbow beams that make you gay, and Death Glitter

@vahnj thus the toot itself is a trap

@vahnj GAY TRAPS

Yes, napping *is* my solution to everything

@vahnj It's hard work being a gay kobold! Maybe it's time to set up some traps around your gay kobold lair and take a nap
