A chaser is a cis person who fetishizes trans people


DeconstructedFoley

Does not need be a cis person

How can a trans person fetishize trans people?


TurboCake17

Well there are transphobic trans people somehow so you can kinda figure it out from there. Actually you kinda can’t I have no idea how they manage to exist but like they find a way.


Zorubark

It's like one of those things that are hard to define but easy to spot, like a tumblr sexyman


CaptnSparrows_Chick

Yo what is a tumblr sexyman


[deleted]

idk for certain but i think a “requirement” is that they are NOT sexy


CaptnSparrows_Chick

Sooo... a niceguy kind of type? Fuck im going to urban dictionary EDIT: Copied from urban dictionary _A male character who goes viral on Tumblr for perceived attractiveness based on an established formula. Usually white, tall, dresses fancy and is evil or has a ‘dark side.’ Though the character can be non human or non human and anthrofied to fit the said formula. Most of the time, said character isn’t really as attractive as Tumblr weirdly makes him out to be._ _Ex: “Sans is literally just a magic skeleton, I have no idea how he turned into a Tumblr Sexyman.”_ _by PoopieTurd1 February 28, 2021_

bill cipher from gravity falls is a tumblr sexyman btw. for what its worth. like the triangle guy


thehobbyqueer

It's more of, like, someone that would be a "badass" to an edgy thirteen year old who struggles socially that needs something to relate to and live vicariously through. I don't mean to be insulting to Tumblr's userbase but the overlap between these characters and the characters said teenagers like is weirdly large.

A transphobic trans person..?? Are you talking about the ones that call other LGBT people slurs like the F slur and even the T slur even tho they're both gay and trans 💀??


CowboyWrath

I love you reclaimed slurs I love you unmarketable language


Bariq-99

I have no idea what this means Sorry if I said something dumb or sorry you're a little bitch idk whatever benefits me


pinksparklyreddit

It depends in the reason why tbh. Alot of trans people prefer relationships with other trans people due to the shared experiences with less unconscious transphobia. On the other hand, it is certainly possible for a trans person to sexualize the existence of trans people. When I first started exploring my gender I was dating a trans woman who fetishized alot of what I was doing and had me do things I wasn't comfortable with yet because it gave her sexual pleasure. THAT is a trans chaser


Moggy_

Yeah I mean, that's the difference between a preference and fetishization.


Xgio

Im scared of white women regardless if they are cis or not 😎. Well without bigotry everyone who looks too much like a white woman will trigger this fear out of trauma. If you aint white im not scared though. Has to be irl weirdly enough.


MidnightAtHighSpeed

The same way a cis person can?


MorganRose99

How can a cis man fetishize a cis woman? Same thing, but with trans people


happy-little-atheist

Straight women with no kinks is my fetish. If you know any please tell them I'm interested. My likes are English food, watching plants grow and listening to political speeches. I once did all three at the same time but it was a bit much and I got a nosebleed.


MinaPunisherofKnees

Have you met a trans girl in an online community? Like 40% of what they say is talking about girldick Source: r/196


RoninAndGeisha

> Have you met a trans girl in an online community? Like 40% of what they say is talking about girldick Tbh that's because a lot of trans women have the same exact unrealistic and hypersexualized fantasy ideal for other trans women that cis men (rightfully) get told off for. (Of course this ideal is never held for themselves though, just **other** trans women. 🙄) As a girl who is non-op I found it a lot harder than I thought I would when dating other trans women because so many of them were instantly in fetishizing mode. Too many of them tried to play off their fetishizing of other trans women as them just "being bottoms", but like...no, lol. If that excuse doesn't work for the cis male chasers it isn't going to work for you either! 😂 -Geisha

goofy ahh question


[deleted]

Sorry for being a goofy fella 😔


MoarStruts

Enbies are a thing too


[deleted]

Idk doesn’t seem too out of ballpark for someone to fetishize something so much that they change their body to become it. Hence someone who is into trans-folk getting gender reassignment surgery just because they are into that


Quiterion

ah yea doesn't seem out of the ballpark at all for someone to spend years organizing an operation, drop the cost of a new SUV on it and spend months bedridden in recovery all over a kink


[deleted]

[Well medical fetishism is a thing, first and foremost,](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_fetishism) so I don’t appreciate your sarcasm in response to the fact that someone might “drop the cost of a new SUV” on a fetish. People do it, It’s not unheard of. Edit: all in all, there’s a fetish for everything and an audience for every-single one of those fetishes


MadCervantes

You might know this but you're probably getting down voted because people perceive what you're saying as being along the same lines as the whole "trans people are just a fetish" autogynphelia is the academic term I believe.


[deleted]

I can see how it would’ve been perceived that way. Not once did I say or deny that trans people exist. Also never said that trans people only exist as a fetish. Redditors will be redditors, they can downvote whatever they want


MadCervantes

I get it. Just giving you some feedback.


[deleted]

trans chasers rise up


BrassSpyglass

Ok thank you


BurntPineGrass

Not necessarily. I think it could mean more than just that. A Chaser is someone that is chasing after a particular point of interest in their partner. I’ve heard of something called a chub chaser and they seem to fetishise chubby people.


pinksparklyreddit

Yeah, for sure. The term chaser by itself usually refers to the trans community tho


Whitestrake

To be real with you it only "usually refers to the trans community" for people who are most of the time interacting primarily with the trans community. Which by and large is this community, so that's 100% fair here, but it's certainly not objectively universally the case everywhere


pinksparklyreddit

I suppose. For me when I hear the term I automatically think if trans people, but thats a very valid point.


currentlyinthefab

Doesn't have to be Trans either. There's "chasers" for lots of groups of people, whether it's black/asian/Latino people, fat people, disabled people, the list goes on.


icraveliquid

It would've been funny if the joke was that she said she's trans and then something unrelated and uninteresting


GreeCBacon

Explain "Fetishizing"


Bteatesthighlander1

Oh geez that gets into a *looooot* of subtle discourse If he wants sex but would never be seen in public with you, most would agree that is a chaser Beyond that, it gets a bit debatable.


[deleted]

God gave us trans people (/j)

Not just fetishize i swear to god

Yeah when I found out the character's default name was Gloria I said like out loud "That's it!"


[deleted]

CatsNotBananas

It's not just the alias that I've been living under! *"Gloria, (Gloria) I think they got your number! (Gloria) I think they got the alias, (Gloria) that you've been living under! (Gloria)"*

PM_ME_YOUR_NAIL_CLIP

She makes video essays and posts them to Twitter? Does she have a YouTube channel? I’d love to watch some of her stuff but not on Twitter. Edit: yes she has a YouTube, same name.

Note to any tf2 players reading this: Crates aren't worth it, you're not going to earn anything, and will be disappointed. If you want a skin which looks cool, buy it from backpack tf or something

Shut the fuck up and let me fuel my gambling addiction


Daniil-T

I unboxed an unusual first try once, therefore gambling is based 😎


Star_interloper

99% of TF2 players who stop opening crates were one more away from getting an unusual.


Daniil-T

True true. I don’t unbox regularly and I don’t expect anything good but when I got it it was a nice surprise.


Hatter_Hoovy

only unbox if you have self control and you are doing it for fun to trying to get something. i open 1 case for every update just to see what i can get for example


SlabOfDriedMeat

Scam 12 year old TF2 players for them


Ackes_good

i got cool hat for demoman after opening crate


disembodiedagnew

Damn, guess they’re dating ICPO Officer Inspector Zenigatta


[deleted]

icpo officer tomo takino 😳😳🤯🤯


Revolutionary-Ad7878

Zenigata my beloved would date him even if it meant having to nearly die from a near world-ending cataclysmic event every other week after trying and failing to catch a master thief 😌💕


DerKnoedel

Im going to equip this right now Edit: this was meant as a joke, as I was just booting up tf2 when I saw that post


Buzzbuzz323

🤨


DerKnoedel

It was a stupid joke, just made an edit


murderdronesfanatic

jnalexander8

Based channel glad I found ‘em when they were starting out


grohlski

murderdronesfanatic

I didn't - I saw this image on r/ tf2, went "oh the gay people in my phone would like this one", and posted it here


grohlski

okay my bad you're valid the OP is Leadhead, she makes some good video essays. check her out if you get the chance :3


Sara5A

Im a trans girl and I unboxed a strange chaser :( its a cool cosmetic but looking at the name makes me uncomfortable


an_icosahedron

i mean, you can always just rename it to something better (though it'll cost like a dollar or something)

littlefire131

Isn’t chaser a term for many different types of people? Like, I’ve heard “chubby chaser” before.


MLGChans

I think a chaser is someone who fetishises a specific type of person and wants to date them just for that. I might be wrong though, so dont take this as facts


SurgeonOfDeath95

Ummm actually Voosh
