Ugh, this pisses me off, so much.
So often I find this kind of stuff circulating Mpreg fanfiction and it makes zero sense to me.
"Mpreg is transphobic because why have a cisman pregnant if you could just make him trans. It would make more sense"
So lets kill all fantasy and rewrite everything that 'doesnt make sense'. Shrek is homophobic because he's a straight male character in love with a straight female character. Why not just make him female?
I have yet to hear anyone with a solid argument for this. I have yet to understand how things like this 'deny the existence of transmen.' But then, if its fetishized, its demeaning, objectifying trans men. There's either the acceptance that all mpreg ignores all transmen, or that mpreg is ONLY targeting transmen. It makes no sense.
I am a part of this community because I am attracted to the idea that biological, cismen, can carry children. Making the main character in this movie trans dismantles the entire point of the movie.
