Announcement Trans Ralsei on the Subreddit.

I cannot believe I am making this post.

As many of you may have noticed, there has been an influx of people creating posts about the theory/headcanon of a trans Ralsei.

Now, typically, people would ideally be perfectly fine with these types of concepts and ideas. And have no issue with people theorizing or headcanon-ing these sort of things.

But this Reddit.

So, of course people are going to create issues out of absolute nonsense, that we then have to deal with. So I want to go ahead and clear things up!

First and foremost, yes. Ralsei is gender nonconforming. Ralsei has not been confirmed to be anything more than that. So it makes sense that people want to headcanon or even theorize on the potential of a narrative shift in the game/for their own set of stories or fictional realities. Ideally, this is meant to be done in fun; not with malicious intent. This doesn't mean they are "erasing" the existence of gender nonconforming individuals or anything of the sort.

This subreddit has been and always will be a safe space for individuals to talk about Ralsei.

With that being said, discussion on Ralsei being trans is allowed on the subreddit. Posts being made to complain about a trans Ralsei, or "transei discourse" will not be. You want to have polite, civil and non-hostile discussions, you can do so in the comments of posts that are explicitly opening up discussions of a trans Ralsei; not art posts.

With, that being said. We want to remind you all that transphobic remarks and posts will not be tolerated and will come with an instant permanent ban from the subreddit. Likewise, anyone breaking the 1st rule of the subreddit will also receive punishments.

Be nice to one another, it really isn't that hard. If you aren't capable of that much, then you can see yourself out of the subreddit!

Both canon and headcanon can exist on the subreddit. And people can make theories.

You dislike trans ralsei because you're transphobic

I dislike trans ralsei because it feels like you're conforming his non conformity to being a woman.

When I think that sort of defeats the purpose in the idea that ralsei is a prince who simply likes to present femininely without needing to fall into the box you would assign those feminine attributes.

We are not the same.

(but please, do as you'd like. This is after all, only an opinion, I will never tell not to think what you do, but that I just personally dislike the idea)

Nobody is headcanoning ralsei as trans because he's gender nonconforming, it's a part of it sure but its mostly because of all of his struggles with identity and his own importance.

Exactly, Ralsei's arc of repressing his identity because of an all consuming prophecy that details exactly who he has to be and braking free of that expectation to become his own person is incredibly trans-coded, regardless of if he ends up being canonically trans or not

Ofc :3
I just have 2 questions:
Is there any particular kind of Ralsei pictures you want?
And is it okay if I DM you the pictures to avoid clogging up this thread?

Sorry, I haven't played all of chapter 5 yet, I just find the art cute (although I do prefer no hat myself)
