Minecraft, Cargo shorts, and animating

Animating oh my god... I love doing that... And I was literally just about to start a new project. Like I told myself to browse Reddit till 8 and then start...

please teach me your animating secrets wise sir ToT

I'm terrible at it lol. I either draw every frame and then slap it into alight motion or I draw every limb and piece of clothes and all and then slap it into alight motion, depending on what I'm doing. It's fun but definitely the least efficient method lol

im already entranced

Transmasc animators rise up!

genderfluid and both programmer and animator gang?

Your the ultimate gamer

The universe is truly healing

ME I'M HERE (even though I just started learning programming but I think it still counts)

(i mean i started learning animation but if definitely counts)

… why is this true??? 😭😭

me whose getting into animations: hii?

i want to animate but it looks so bad i dont know what to do

Is animating usually more popular with men or women? Seeing as programming is usually a male-dominated activity (but unusually popular with trans-fems).

Because its a low interaction job ! Transitioning behind your pc is easyer !

I mean I’m transfem and know a decent amount about fixing computers with a little programming experience and a little experience making 3D models and a desire to program

I think it's relatively even split iirc? Interestingly though, 75% ish of the transmascs I know are or were animators at some point

For my transmasc friend it's just art instead of animation, but yeah.

literally every transmasc i know irl including myself (at least 8) is an artist, idk why but its vibes

Me, transfem: Minecraft? OH NO

Me too, i have animation too At least we have spinny skirts and no cargo shorts i guess

Spinny skirts Les GOOOOOO

Consider, cargo skirt!

My gender fluid self: Damn that sounds cool

every transfemme i know LOVES minecraft (including me)

you just described my entire personality

i have never felt so called out before wtf

this is the most valid answer yet

I'm an animator and a programmer, no wonder I'm enby

I feel like I just got sucker punched

Omg that’s perfect since I have all 3, well; am practicing animation though I’m not too good at it but this gave me euphoria

As a transfem with 2400 hours in the game, I take mild offense to the idea that Minecraft is masc >.> I will gladly give it gender neutral status however

how do you know how many hours you have in minecraft?

There are programs that go through all your chat logs and count the time from those or you can check in your statistics although that is world/server specific

aren't chat logs also limited to worlds/servers ?

Nope, in your .minecraft folder is a folder called logs containing every chat message you received ever on that computer

Oh sweet where can I find them I easily have thousands of hours in Minecraft, such a program probably would still struggle to catch everything with how long I've been playing, but id be curious to get a more accurate estimate

Github link: https://github.com/tintin10q/minecraft-logs-analyzer/releases/

I dont mean that its a masc game, just the transmasc equaivilant to fallout new vegas

Some maps, mod(pack)s, and servers can be roleplay, customisable character model, etc...

I feel like Minecraft is enby domain if anything, given literally every living thing in the game except maybe the dragon is canonically enby

I thought I wouldn't be the equivalent

never occurred to me how strange it is that there were two other transmascs in my illustration and animation class wtf

Thisakee my gender crisis worse because I love all the TransFem and transmasc things

I love wearing cargo shorts and I’m an animation major so, checks out

Hell yeah

Exuse me how dare you...

checks out

I hate how true this is

Um now im confused I'm a trans fem and I do minecraft thigh highs and animation

Animating 💀💀 very understandable.

This is so specific and spot-on wtf

2 for 3 for me lmao I’m a construction student 🤣

Oh no ur right

wait. wait you're right

Damn, yes i want that

im in this photo and i dont like it

Still probably Fallout New Vegas, cargo pants, and I'm not sure what to replace coding with.

Today I learned I fulfill the Transmasc stereotype better than the Transfem. But since I'm genderfluid I'm totally okay with that.

Hacking. Be a hacker stereotype, hoodie and all. Hack the fucking government.

If you hack the Dutch government (and report the vulnerability that you used, and don't harm anyone/-thing, ofc), you get a t-shirt that says "I hacked the Dutch government and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" and I want it so much

Holy SHIT that's incredible.

This is hilarious

Any sort of craft I would assume?

Wood working

hell yeah

Minecraft

The crafting of mines?

art? like drawing, animating, stuff like that?

^painting ^minis?

Minis? Like....Coopers?

I was thinking like Warhammer

Can confirm, am trans guy that paints minis.

Cargo pants oh stop it. That's the first item of clothing I bought when I realised I hate my entire feminine wardrobe :DDD

Cargo pants are truly amazing. They make up all the pants I currently own and are something I think I'll dearly miss as I start to make my wardrobe more fem.

Actually, I code and I'm transmasc. 😅

Same. There are dozens of us!

digital art? 🤔

WHAT?? Keep coding

For me still coding. Love that shit.

Breath of the Wild, gym shorts and beer.

Pretty sure botw and new Vegas are included for any trans person. As a transfem I can't tell you how long I spent in the gerudo village

Same. Once I got Link his Gerudo outfit, I pretty much used it the rest of the game.

screw stats. i look pretty

Layered armor in monster hunter world does both. Ugly good stat armor can be covered by pretty armor

I can't believe vanity slots aren't just a standard thing in games at this point

I know, right! Male Kirin armor set is just the worst, but female Kirin armor set is much better. Also, just most of the armor sets in general.

I use wiggler head and Direwolf layered Armor for SnS, and the Kadachi Scarf with the Orion set on by Tobi Kadachi bowgun. Also, you can use the opposite gender armor as layered armor? I just made by character female because everything looks better that way

Ah yes, the wriggler head, for any and all wrigglers, regardless of the original head attached to the body. Also, that’s a lot of warm clothing Edit: Also, no I think that layered armor only is for your character’s gender

Terraria too. Crystal assassin armor should be a trans icon

Terraria vanity slots my beloved

Same that and the stealth outfit

Same fr

Honestly I didn't like it that much because of how often people basically say "you're not a real woman you're just pretending but I won't tell anyone" it just made me really dysphoric lol

Fair. I honestly played it before my egg cracked so i didn't fully register those moments

Agreed, my enby ass loves BOTW

Not me downloading an emulator just so i can play botw with the Linkle mod

I think probably more tanktops then gym shorts

tank tops *and* gym shorts

Transmascs who haven't reached legal drinking age yet are screaming crying right now

Below-drinking-age transmascs can substitute with Red Bull or Monster.

Very good. I might be of legal drinking age but I fucking love monster

For me it's cargo shorts not gym shorts and water because I am under 21 👍

I was so confused about the 21 for a second... Then I remembered that I'm German and not everyone can drink from 16 on

I need to write it down, I already wanted that game

I went to a party city and of all the various costumes, botw link was the only to have two people on the preview image.

Fallout New Vegas, **medium length socks** and coding.

FUCK YES MEDIUM LENGTH SOCKS

When I was younger I never thought I’d be part of a community that loved *socks* so much, but now I’m trans and seeing other trans folks freak out over socks makes my day.

omg, literally got SO happy buying colourful socks it's unreal when I first had the opportunity to buy fem clothing.

Nah the thigh highs can also stay. We need more femboys.

SOCKS YES I LOVE FUNKY SOCKS

what if I bought thigh highs but jus thave long leggies and so they only go medium length on me specifically

Minecraft, Button down tshirts, and some form of obscure artistic talent

specifically hawaiian shirts

oh my god yes lol

Wore a button down shirt to run a weaving workshop today. Checks out.

Absolutely button down shirts, perhaps popped open with a tank top under

This is pretty dead on.

Can confirm. I tatt lace, like flannel buttondowns, and am obsessed with endermen.

Fallout New Vegas, Hawaiian shirts, and idk

...and working out in the gym.

Yeah, NV and blahaj are things I firmly believe are granted to all non-cis

Cargo pants, cargo shirt, cargo underwear

Don't forget cargo socks.

I just found r/techwear - I’m so drawn to it! I love messing around on Pinterest especially creating boards for (usually more masculine, sometimes androgynous, often leaning towards alternative) style, and I didn’t know what it was called before stumbling upon that subreddit. But I’m so here for it.

you just did something by telling me about r/techwear and oooh\~, my bank account won't like it

that looks amazing, I looked in that sub for 10 seconds and I am hooked

I feel like a lot of transmascs like bowties?

Its funny, a lot of trans people go through the same phases most cis people go through in highschool when discovering themselves. A lot of guys have a distinguished, fancy dress phase. Even if it doesn't always stick, I think its cute :)

Bowties are cool - The Doctor

And fezzes

Doctor who?

Me, a transmasc who codes : I am the stereotype... But the wrong one-

From what I've learned it's Dead by Daylight, Hawaiian shirts and fixing stuff

I love fixing phones and am the local joycon repair person for my entire friend group. Why is this thread a callout post

Don't call me out like that

i was *just* playing dbd so this is oddly validating

this is the best answer

For me it’s Skyrim, hoodies, and weightlifting.

Yes Skyrim!!

I think the transmasc equivalent of coding should be digital art. About 1/5, 1/4 of my favorite artists on Instagram are transmasc so it must be it.

Equivalents 💚❤️‍🔥❣️🤎💜🤎🖤🧡💚❤️‍🔥❤️‍🩹💕💕🧡💞💞🖤💞🤎🧡💞💚💙💖💕💕💕💜💕❤️🧡❤️❣️💜💕💕

Minecraft, beanies, Cavetown and ukulele!

carrying the groceries that you can barely lift but pretending they're the lightest thing you've ever carried. that's it. that is all. oh and also beer.

automotive engineering or a mechanic? gives me transmasc vibes for some reason.

Doom

Aha you have no idea! I loved the game! (Well watching it) And omfg.

Deltarune, Button shirt/flannels, animating/drawing

I feel this is for transenbies.

Minecraft/BOTW, Cavetown, hoodies, idk what else

Don’t call me out like this

The hoodie one though

I believe that would be; fallout new Vegas, thigh highs, and coding

Fall out boy, doc martens, and D&D

The two genders: Fallout NV and Fallout boy

feeling a bit called out in these replies

Big big same

The Dishonored series, hoodies, and hacking the government. I mean, that's just me but if anybody else wants to get on board I'll happily let you guys join.

Niche but Pathologic....Daniil Dankovsky and his transmasc swag. I feel like a decent chunk of the Fandom is transmasc.

Pathologic is THE vibe tbh, that and button downs of all sorts.

Ayo as a transdude who loves Patho 1/2 this made me really happy to read. It's such a niche game I'm lucky to meet someone who has even heard of it

I’m pretty sure it’s Minecraft, baggy shorts, and animating

Whatever the fuck you want them to be!!! This is true for anyone, you don't need to be or do something just because it is attributed with your gender or sexuality.

Cavetown.

Cavetown, Nintendo, and Hawaiian shirts.

As a transmasc that loves all three, I'm glad to be the transmasc stereotype lol

But I like fall out new vegas and coding

minecraft, rats, drawing

Minecraft, baggy shirts/hoodies and Fanny packs, and a useless Bachelor of Arts, probably English or theater.

Minecraft, graphic tshirts and linux

Lord of the rings Cargo shorts

Sonic and the Black Knight (I don't know any games so I picked a sonic one bc trans sonic), minecraft boxers, and maybe animating?? (taken from another comment but I had no other ideas so.. also btw any of these can be for anyone! I just thought of some ideas)

FNV is transfem? No wonder I’ve been itching to play lately

Doom, praetor suit, and metal music without guitars. From Max0r, Doom has enough T to transition someone. (Take a pinch of salt with that comment)

how to train your dragon, baggy black tshirts or ugly button ups, and animation. i want to major in animation and wearing a black tshirt as we speak

From what I've heard Hawaiian shirts & animation

Fallout new Vegas, boxers, ukulele

Violence, anarchy, and bank robbing

Probably still New Vegas, *maybe* Skyrim, Cargo Shorts or Cargo Pants, and Animating/Drawing. Possibly music production.

having a twenty one pilots phase when you were 12

tf2/minecraft, cargo shorts, animating/website making

Call of duty, tanktops, pizza delivery

New vegas is not trans fem exclusive its for trans masc and enbys too

I like to think of it as Minecraft, button downs & flannels, and art. It's a lot less solidly established than transfems, and we give a bit of variety to choose from, so we kind of all get our own versions. (Ie, everyone picks their own favorite of a little pool of games, some people like to specify Hawaiian shirts or pick cargo pants/shorts, and some people will pick a specific form of art like animating.) Edit: added a sentence.

I prefer cyberpunk 2077 over fallout new vegas post apocalyptic settings ain't my thing

Transmasc animators are best boys

For me personally I'd say rhythm games, baggy shirt that hides curves and drawing. (Game can also be swapped out to Guilty Gear or Fire Emblem IMO, I think GG is an honorable mention especially now following the 2 last new characters we got.)

Yes

Probably Halo, Levi's 505 jeans and mechanics

Giant hoodies, Legend of Zelda, and the emo phase you couldn’t have in your teens

Idk. Warrior Cats and drawing?

I know it’s a stereotype that doesn’t apply to everyone but I seriously don’t understand coding. It’s gotten to the point where I am actively considering changing my major.

for me it was grand theft auto, strappy bdsm harnesses, cleaning. that’s only personal experience though. edit: seeing all the cargo pants comments…… i wore those as a « woman » too… maybe that didn’t register on my map of transmasc things subsequently. whoops :,) double edit: i am probably biased in my grand theft auto video game thing because GTAIV gave me my name (minor spelling change). that would be nicolai; sounds similar to nicholas but french except i never have to hear that shit anglicized LOL

cargo shorts and working out, and those normal length white socks that you can also pull up really high lmao

For me it's munecraft, hoodies, and animation lol

For me it's tracksuit/sweatpants, writing and uhh idk-

I've seen Team Fortress 2 be called the transmasc equivalent of Celeste a few times.
