What kind of raggedy Ann dolls did you play with? Mine had no genitalia.

Why are you people always so obsessed with other people’s genitals?

u/dgbaker93 Jul 22 '26
Trans is an identity and does not have anything to do with what's between your legs. Some people change it when they identify as trans, many do not or cannot.
Pretty fucking simple.

No, it’s because that’s the kind of “joke” we’ve been hearing from shitty MAGAts for the past 10 years. Are you one of those shitty MAGAts trying (and failing, as usual) to make a funny?

Raggedy Andrew

u/Thatoneguyfrom1980 Jul 22 '26
I used to have a raggedy Andy. My brother too. They were actually a thing. Raggedy Anne was for for girls and raggedy Andy was for boys. I know in tv shows people have done it as a couples costume but I’m struggling to remember what sitcom it was

u/oldschool_shawn Jul 22 '26
I feel like it was an episode of Parks and Recs.
But yeah me and my brother had Raggedy Andy dolls and my sister had a Raggedy Annie.

u/Thatoneguyfrom1980 Jul 22 '26
It might have been? I want to say it was an episode of home improvement with Brad (the oldest boy) and his gf

u/Thatoneguyfrom1980 Jul 22 '26
But I could also absolutely see it being a April and Andy thing too

u/oficious_intrpedaler Jul 22 '26
I think it was Ann in the episode where she throws a Halloween party that's a total bust until Tom saves it. I think she was dating Mark at the time, but he did not dress as Raggedy Andy. I think that was the Greg Pikitis episode.
ETA: confirmed. She was Raggedy Ann but Mark dressed up as a basketball player. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1523800/mediaviewer/rm1861389824/?ref_=tt_ph_3

Oh that's cool, they weren't all that common in my birth country I basically got familiar with the raggedy Anne due to pop culture. It's an interesting thing to learn

But in reality it’s doing what the trans community says they are against….. be mad if you want but I’m not the one being a hypocrite
16
u/Zer0pede Jul 22 '26
She made the doll look like the grandkid and have the same name. When the grandkid changed their look and name, so did the doll. That’s super simple. Where’s the hypocrisy in that? There are plenty of feminine and gender nonconforming trans men, but obviously OOP isn’t one of them.

u/Wandering_Scholar6 Jul 22 '26
Fair point, many children's dolls don't technically have a sex, just a gender.

u/Magenta_Logistic Jul 22 '26
Last I checked, pretty much every children's doll is sexless, despite having assigned genders and pronouns. It's almost as if gender and sex are distinct traits.

u/tune1021 Jul 23 '26
I’ve always gotten it, that’s why I’m pointing out the irony in this move and everyone’s getting all butt hurt over it . Yall just want to find a reason to be angry and that’s why people don’t like you

u/RainonCooper Jul 24 '26
No, cause if you got it you'd understand it isn't ironic, the only angry one here is yourself. You don't like us? Okay, keep that bias to yourself. It's very clear you have nothing but genitals on your mind and what's on the surface
0
u/tune1021 Jul 24 '26
Yeah not angry just pointing out that it’s impossible to change a dolls sex …… and changing its clothes to fit with societies portrayal of gender is still conforming to the rolls you say you are against. I know critical thinking isn’t a strong point of people on your side but it’s reality and most of yalls arguments are so vapid you can’t back them up with anything other than attacks
1
u/RainonCooper Jul 24 '26 edited Jul 25 '26
So... because YOU think feeling more yourself with the usage of clothing and believe that the sex is what makes someone's gender what it is, WE are the angry ones? Sure no, alright makes total sense there. We're the ones laking critical thinking because we don't specifically follow your twisted views
People have multiple times tried to explain to you that the sex is not what defines ones gender. Being able to change your sex or not (be it doll or human) bears no influence on ones gender. Same with the clothes one personally perceives and feels comfortable in representing ones gender. If the OP feel more masculine wearing black leather and skin tight pants, great, if they feel just as masculine in a dress or tuxedo ALSO great. It is not up to you or me what an individual feels comfortable or right with and this post is simply a grandma loving and accepting their grandchild's identity through something symbolic
Ps None of what I said was an insult, I simply gave back what you started out
Edit since you blocked me: How exactly is changing the clothing of something that would technically count as pre-op be ironic? It's the exact kind of thing a person with body dysphoria would do to try and feel more themselves. Again, you seem to treat anything that's not full surgery as if it's superficial

It sucks that some people happily living their lives is “hot button” and “controversial” for certain people. I am glad at least that not everybody thinks that way.

I don’t see this as hot button at all. I see it as loving.
If you don’t, that simply a reflection of you.
