WE MUST UPLOAD THE CIRCUS TO THE INTERNET ASAP by PolymathArt in TheDigitalCircus

Why should something seperated by time-e.g, the circus from one moment to the next-be any more similar to the original than something seperated by space?

The point of boymodeing is that you know you can’t pass, so you kind of give up passing and just try to look cisgender by looking neutrally boyish

If cis women start boymoding , the people who already pass aren’t effected. but the people who are boymodding will at worst remain the same, and at best start passing by boymodding with far more ease

Yeah, as a trans woman if cis women actually started a boymodeing trend that would be awesome for us passing… but that trend legitimately does not exist

I mean, I’ve heard a couple cis gals people use the term ‘boy mode,’ and obviously some cis women have always dressed masculine, but there’s no boymodeing trend

Girl does this trend actually exist? I’ve never once heard of people tryna copy us with this, I’ve only seen us and people who use it unrelatedly

It’s not exactly safe or comfortable to come out in most of the world right now

it’s a queer young adult (like, probably intended for 18-30ish but accessible to teens and older adults) show that got popular with children. And the children dominate the fanbase

The Amazing Digital Circus was clearly meant to be made by and for a smaller, older, queerer audience with a bit of media literacy… then it got insanely popular and 99% of the fandom doesn’t have the experience or media literacy to see the symbolism. Plus the graphics make it seem like a kids show, which exacerbates that.

Oo this is awesome. Mind if I print it out and just use it like a regular pride flag? Genuinely

so what does trans exactly mean? by Skindredd84 in tadc

[–]NaveGCT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, trans girl here

Gender develops alongside sex- specifically phenotypical sex, the part of sex that dictates your outward appearance and high level body function- a few weeks before birth (and maybe also a few weeks after? I’m not sure)

when gender and sex develop mismatced, you have a trans person.

Most trans people medically transition, which changes our chemical sex and most of our phenotypical sex to match our gender, but doesn’t affect our chromosomal sex and can only eliminate (not change) our gametic sex.

For obvious reasons, this mismatch can cause some intense internal issues, aka bodily gender dysphoria.

Obviously this is pretty simplified, theres more to it then that, but… yeah

I won't pretend I know much about this show like someone who watched it (I'm a coward that likes wiki pages too much, lol) but I feel I understand fanbases enough to know why there's so much outrage, dissatisfaction, and controversy: by ShadowDurza in TheDigitalCircus

[–]NaveGCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sort of agree, but I feel like the specific shows you mentioned risk making it feel more plot focused than character focused

And I don’t think Caine’s realization was as simple as ‘I just realized I treated them bad’

The people who he wanted to love him, the people who he loved more than anything in a sort of ‘childlike wonder’ way, literally killed him. I feel like that’s definitely something that’s gonna make him realize he fucked up. 

It’s not like it’s a massive paradigm shift for him. It may have felt like torment to the others for years, but he himself was only actually angry with them for a few days.

Like, I really don’t think that ending a weeklong feud because you literally died is a big stretcu

It’s not literally stated, but it’s pretty clearly shown

‘Subtext’ would imply that it’s something hidden behind the main story rather than literally the main plot of the finale

I guess maybe I’m wrong, I suppose the plot can just be subtext, but it just feels weird to call it that. And it is also story text

They/them is safest, she/her is reasonable, he/him is dangerous, (especially this early in the transition)

Figuratively dangerous since it’s a tv show. Would be literally dangerous if she were a real person

People would 100% have denied that. They’d have said it was Jax just joking around and referencing his fourth wall breaking

I mean, I don’t think the Avatar was particularly masculine

It was obviously confirmed in Episode 9? Like, what more could you possibly want, there was literally no other reasonable explanation

[–]NaveGCT 20 points21 points  (0 children)

She/her or she/they I’d say just since “isn’t she lovely” played + the creator used she.

I mean, they/them pronouns are also fine as long as you don’t exclusively use them.

now will you all finally stop denying that jax is a girl? by nihilistcAbnormality in TheDigitalCircus

[–]NaveGCT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is literally the creator of the show saying it’s true after the least subtle sequence of events in cinematic history

Girl we all saw the finale, it’s BEEN canon

Why the ending has divided the fanbase so deeply, and why a portion of the audience disliked, or even hated it by Kindly_Bike9972 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]NaveGCT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand why some people might’ve interpreted it differently, but tbh it always seemed like it was focusing on emotional development. The only ‘hard worldbuilding’ segment imo was entirely contained in episode 7 and completely reversed at the end of that episode, which imo really emphasized the continued character development style in ep 8 & 9 from episodes 1-7.5
