4499: I get where you’re coming from but minor coding is just… not a real thing. Other types of “X coding” you hear people talk about are real things. Queer coding? Absolutely is a real thing. The term is constantly misused by deluded fans who want to force their headcanons as canon and often enters the pitfall of just straight up stereotyping, but before that, queercoding has been and still is a real tool people have used to sneak queerness past conservative corporate censors. “Minor coding”, however? Not a real thing, at all. Shouldn’t even be a real necessary thing in the first place– minors aren’t a historically oppressed or marginalized group whose representation gets pushed out by corporate conservative censors. A character either is a minor, or isn’t. Just about ALL of the traits you may have seen attributed to “minor coding” are traits that many adults can and do have too such as being short, still living with their parents, not drinking alcohol, being a flat-chested woman, and yes even “childlike” appearances and “childlike” behaviors. The claims that any of these things make a character “minor coded” are rooted in sexism, racism, classism, and/or ableism, and I dare you to name me any other “X makes a character minor-coded” claim that isn’t rooted in some form of chauvinism. East Asian women are constantly stereotyped as “looking childlike”. Neurodivergent people constantly have their behaviors deemed as “childlike behaviors”. It’s common in a lot of Eastern cultures for a child to not move out and instead stay with their aging parents to be able to help take care of them, and some people may not be able to move out anyways due to a disability, not being emotionally ready, or being financially dependent.TLDR: “Minor-coding” is just some stupid fake thing made up by TikTok-brained Twitter Minor hiveminds who want to police what characters people can’t make lewd art of because they think they’re oppressed by people drawing BakuDeku porn. And all that their “X is minor coded because Y” claims do is unwittingly infantilize women, POC, neurodivergent and disabled/handicapped people, and possibly more.

It’s become odd that, in light of the JSomerton information that has become more widely known, a lot of people are surprised he was also a raging misogynist on top of being a shameless plagiarist. Then, they cite videos like his dreaded and woefully ignorant Killing Stalking video as one of the videos by him they liked… even though this is, by far, his most wildly misogynistic video. It’s almost as though misogyny is not just as simple as saying “All women need to do is have children and cook.” Misogyny encompasses patterns and thought processes that systemically diminish women’s values and contributions. BL enthusiasts watched that video and could tell immediately all his talking points were the same ignorant, recycled points used to demean BL and women all the time. If you agreed with what he said, you’re also a misogynist and should spend more time actually learning about BL through BL studies field of study. It’ll take time, and it won’t be simple or straight forward–still, you need to unlearn your misogyny and decenter yourself within everything in order to actually form community with people. (I’m not gonna get into how women have been saying this about him for years, but only when two men say he’s a misogynist is it taken seriously because yikes!)

olderthannetfic: olderthannetfic: – Yeah. He’s a bog standard “Girls are stinky and trans men and nb AFABs are also girls” style asshole. Anyone who couldn’t see this at a glance from many of his videos is clueless as hell. Seriously.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
