If you read ForbiddenFlora, you’ll know that the trans representation isn’t that great. With Glip’s hatred of men and how the characters act, it really seems that Glip just sees their trans women cast penises. A lot of Glips porn that involves trans characters just seems like Futa porn but called progressive. Now, I’m not one to kickshame, but I am one to point out that conveying standard Futa porn and calling it trans representation is horribly transphobic. But don’t listen to me on this, I asked a few of my trans pals their extended thoughts which you can read here.
Transphobia receipts:
Now, since the Floraverse crew is so LGBT+ friendly, you would believe there would be no issue with pointing out how the trans representation is offensive. You would be wrong.
Here is how Glip responded when a gender fluid individual pointed out they were offended by Glips portrayal of trans characters.
Now hold on, you say, Glips right here! Trans lesbians are still lesbians and the sex they engage in is still lesbian sex, the gender fluid person is being transphobic here!
Actually.
Glip cropped out what the user said. Here was their thread in full.
Oh.
So it seems the person was more upset about how Glip uses trans women as fetish fuel. Not that trans lesbians aren’t lesbians….How curious that Glip purposely cut out everything they said to make it look transphobic.
Wait. Hold on.
Glip didn’t censor their icon making them easily identifiable and manipulated what they said to blast them on Glips popular twitter account, oh no I hope they didn’t get harassed.
Btw? One of Glip’s fans who harassed this gender fluid user told them to shut up and listen on trans matters. It went just about as you’d expect.
Now. I’m normally not one to blame a creator for what the fans do, but Glip intentionally made it so this person could be found by their fans, and intentionally cropped their argument to look transphobic.
So basically, if you’re trans and you’re uncomfortable with how you’re portrayed in floraverse: Fuck you! Let me just make it look like you said something transphobic and sic my fans to say transphobic things to you!
Wait…Reading up, something Glip said sounds interesting…
Glip literally hates you if you’re a gay man
YIKES DUDE.
If you don’t want to draw m/m porn, that’s fine but when you word it like that it seems like you got some hostility towards the gay male community. Especially since all that person pointed out is how you’re using trans women as a scape goat for not having straight sex….why do you use this opportunity to attack gay men?
Oh! Hey! This reminds me of the time Glip said they hated the furry community because of all the “cis gay men”
Quick questions:
1. Why is Glip uncomfortable in a community dominated by gay men? Why is the fact they are gay important?
2. Why is Glip implying that there’s a connection between being gay and being sexist?
3. Why does Glip take an instance of a gender fluid individual being upset about how Glip portrays trans characters as an excuse to attack gay men?
The only answer to all three: Glip is actually incredibly homophobic.
Now for my final topic: Beleth. The once Asexual, Agender, and Aromantic doll.
Floraverse LGBT representation doesn’t really matter and will be taken away in an instant because the porn is more important.
I’ll keep this one brief.
When Beleth was first shown off, one of their main traits advertised was how they were ace/aro/agender. Cool, right? Well. People were a bit upset about how Glip portrayed Beleth’s asexuality. Beleth seemed to experience sexual attraction! Something Asexuals don’t exactly do.
Glips reaction was to make Beleth no longer ace/aro/agender. When criticized on their lgbt+ representation, they fucking revoked that representation instead of trying to improve it.
…
To conclude:
1. If you are trans and are offended by how Glip portrays trans characters, you’re transphobic and Glip will manipulate what you said to open you up to harassment
2. If you’re a gay man fuck you, Glip hates you. Why? Because you’re gay.
3. Lgbt+ representation in Floraverse means fucking nothing and lgbt+ traits will be revoked if you dare criticize it, and the porn takes priority over the lgbt+ representation anyway.
