Scooby Doo meets Jason when?

SE missed the chance to have Cyrus a Megane

Man I wanted to spend my suspension octopathing it up but probably deservedly I’m being put to work by my mom.

Nah, it goes a bit further than that.

It's a male character that not just dresses feminine, but looks, talks, and acts with feminine mannerisms. You literally can't tell they're male (or female if it's the other way around) without being told.

Basically, the character designers drew a female character and hired a female VA and said "he's got a pair".

In anime, it's a bit different than a typical crossdresser and the two are generally used to different effect.

The term "trap" probably comes from the fact that these kind of characters are most commonly found in harem anime, which are about a guy being surrounded by a bunch of cute girls who fall for him, and he spends the series awkwardly dancing around which one he picks. When one of these extremely feminine male characters shows up and is making it clear they like the protagonist, the protagonist has effectively fallen into a trap as both answers to the situation end badly - trying to date the guy means going against the protagonist's sexuality and basically lying to the guy who likes him, but being honest also means hurting the poor guy who probably struggles emotionally as is.

More explicit shows might go a step further and only have the protagonist find out when he's in bed with the guy, which is obviously a whole other kettle of fish.

Dude, unless the cross dressing character is a young boy, majority of traps and reverse traps are played by men and women VAs, respectively. They just usually have good range.

Actually how about this for a topic:

Assuming everything is done well,

What characters do you want Scooby Doo to meet. Consider that anything is on the table pretty much.

Most of the time, traps are young boys, no later than their teens.

Just please, stop using the word "trap" to refer to people, it doesn't matter what other contexts it may used(which all I have seen here are still being used as a slur anyways), it doesn't change the fact it's a slur.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

(which all I have seen here are still being used as a slur anyways)

No? we are talking about fictional anime characters dude. Fictional. Anime. Characters. You really think we would literally do that? Go out in the real world, Go up to a trans person and call them a trap? We are talking about anime characters who arent even trans, not real life trans people because we arent assholes

anyway It seems Tumblr loves Cyrus as much as I do and I got tons on good fanart

 

[praline]

So Olberic I made his secondary class Apothecary, Alfyn is Thief, Primrose is Cleric and Cyrus doesn’t have anything yet cause the only other class I unlocked is Warrior and that wouldn’t work for Cyrus at all. lol

 

[Deleted member]

so i found out the real reason critics rated teen titans go the movie so well, its not what the movie was about its what was in the credits

Spoiler

I really want to see the new TT season, even though I have not watched all of Teen Titans.

I always thought a trap was a cross dresser that didn't identify as trans.

I knew what a trap was for a bit.

I was gonna ask a job question but I dont wanna spoil you (tho you probably already know them)

 

[Knight Dude]

Spider-Man I guess. Because the idea of Symbiote Shaggy is so stupid I need to see an official version of it.

Or maybe Scooby Doo meets the Predator.

 

[praline]

Oh yeah I know the secret jobs cause peoples favourite thing is spoiling ****.

 

[Z25]

Dipper and Mabel.

Oh well this is a tag team I didn't know I wanted. This would be so hype if it happened.

Spider-Man I guess. Because the idea of Symbiote Shaggy is so stupid I need to see an official version of it.

Or maybe Scooby Doo meets the Predator.

Scooby doo meets Alien is a movie (basically) so its come close to Predator. That didn't work out for the Archie gang though....

Sam and Dean.

Don't forget Grunkle Stan and the others, too.

Shiny probably put him in his sig because he desperately wants Kon to like him.

It's literally just a character design trope, though.

It's not really a real life concept. Actual real life crossdressers and actual trans people can't fall under the definition of a "trap" because you can still tell what their biological sex is, even if they're wearing clothes typical of the opposite sex. Unless you're like, really drunk or something, you couldn't accidentally end up with someone of the same sex who is trans or a crossdresser, or only realise their biological sex by them telling you. You simply can't get "trapped" in the awkward situation of having someone whom you thought was a girl confess to you, only to find out they are a guy. Even if they've gone under the knife, there are still telltale signs to a person's original sex unless they got an especially good surgeon to perform an especially thorough and drastic surgery, and said person diets and exercises to have the exact kind of body they want to reflect their gender, and wears the right kind of makeup. The amount of people who have the willpower and the money to do this is very low.

While it's entirely possible for, say, a male to be born and grow up to have some feminine physical features (I should know, I'm one of them), it's impossible for a male to look completely feminine without going through some tough procedures that I've already mentioned.

In fictional character design though, no such limitation exists, and that's all the term was ever meant to refer to. Anyone who calls anyone a trap IRL is using the term incorrectly.

Scooby-Doo x Mortal Kombat when?

**** I actually want this!

 

[praline]

If I was one of those, sorry
But since you know them

Spoiler

what secret jobs are you gonna give them?

Well I don’t know what the classes do but from the sound of it:

Spoiler

Warmaster for Olberic and Sorcerer for Cyrus... I guess Runelord for Alfyn and Starseer for Primrose.

You weren’t. I was spoiled about the names before you posted the pic of Cyrus in one class on twitter.

Out of all of these, the last two could actually happen. Fresh prince would actually be good.

Scooby Doo meets Z fighters would be fantastic though.

Konnie gave me some advice to not be annoying and obsessive. He also told me that I should not be too affected by what people think about me in a PM.

I tried to stay out of this stupid convo, because no one here is going to convince the opposing side to look at it their way. But everyone should drop it at this point. Because this is gonna get the thread into "YIKES" territory real quick.

Because again, this is just a video game forum site, the only times we should be at each other's throats is talking about who's tastes in games is the best. Which is mine of course.

I hope whatever FBI agent is listening to me over my phone is enjoying me going "Why wont this ************ die?" while not knowing im playing octopath

 

[Schnee117]

Scooby Doo vs Mortal Kombat

Pretty ****ed up how Scooby has to go through so few connections to get here.

Scooby crossed over with the DC universe via Batman
DC crossed over with Mortal Kombat and has had MK characters in the Injustice games

that's not counting the "Both owned by WB" connection

 

[Natz~]

Shiny probably put him in his sig because he desperately wants Kon to like him.

sounds about right

what the hell is his obsession with him :V

Aww I am sorry I did not add you!

No it isn't.

Only real gamers take the dive and play true masterpiece VNs like Ace Attorney.

Or spend all their time playing Gacha games with Yuri subtext, the mark of true 100% based taste.

As Schnee said, fiction doesn't exist isolated from reality.
And regardless, I don't see anyone calling other fictional characters by racial or homophobic slurs so why should this be an exception?

It's literally just a character design trope, though.

That's "Dude Looks Like a Lady". Find me one instance where this trope is called "trap". You won't, because it isn't.

It's not really a real life concept. Actual real life crossdressers and actual trans people can't fall under the definition of a "trap" because you can still tell what their biological sex is, even if they're wearing clothes typical of the opposite sex.

You're going in this direction?

Unless you're like, really drunk or something, you couldn't accidentally end up with someone of the same sex who is trans or a crossdresser, or only realise their biological sex by them telling you. You simply can't get "trapped" in the awkward situation of having someone whom you thought was a girl confess to you, only to find out they are a guy.

Please, stop, you're actually making me sick
Do you read the stuff you write? Jfc, are you realising what you're saying? "Someone who you thought was a girl only to find out they're a guy" this is trying to justify literal transphobic rhetoric fearmingering that "trans women/men aren't real women/men"
