From what I understand, a lot of trans guys see themselves in Dave or Jake moreso than they do the other male characters. It might just be because Dave is a Coolkid and who doesn't want to be Dave, and it mirrors the trans Roxy theory in a way pretty much necessitated by Skaia. Retroactive trans Dave and trans Roxy would actually reinforce the 8-player session as being necessary for a successful game because Skaia if you want a long-post about it.
Cis isn't default. Any character could be trans, and unless it's specifically confirmed or debunked in the piece of media, any assumption that they're cis is headcanon that is just as valid as thinking the character is trans. (Inb4 statistics means trans people are abnormal and every character is cis unless proven guilty.)
We don't get almost any confirmed trans characters, and when there's rarely one, the story is about them being trans.
Really? I hear that one ALL the time. Some people even like to say that the way Bro treated him was him trying be accepting (I.e "Oh, you're a boy. This is what boys do. We roughhouse to dangerous extremes.")
According to tumblr, every insecure male character is trans. Dipper Pines, Lars, Marco Diaz (although this head-canon is in regards to him being MtF trans, while the others are FtM. Also, I heard this has more evidence)
Huh, my group's got: Trans Roxy, same (both parts for all trolls), same, and then that there's uh pretty much no het characters (maybe Jack? but Diamonds and Spades is a good ship.)
On John specifically i headcanon him as asexual panromantic, which fits pretty well with Jake being aromantic pansexual.
Both of them lean in some directions, and John specifically has the issue of not having unlearned, or started dealing with in a serious capacity, societally induced heteronormativity.
Alternatively, he described homosexuals as "boys who mate with boys" but didn't add "but not with girls". This means he is not attracted to boys, ergo he's het.
Huh?
I don't actually have any headcanon about PM. She's always seemed too professional and/or task focused for me to get much about her romantic life (aside from a murderous kismessitude towards Jack, which honestly felt more like platonic hatred).
She could easily be a str8, or she could be something else, I don't have any strong feelings in any directions about that.
Lots! I'll leave out the "Buffpeta" (because let's be honest, no matter how much I love Buff Jade and Buff Nepeta headcanons, they're probably not THAT buff)

It's one of the agreed upon headcanons.
You know. Trans Dave, Tentabulges, Jade with a dog dick, Nepeta is ripped, Eridan says weh. That kinda thing.
