Thanks for sharing this! I really appreciate when folks take the time to write thoughts out like this for others to read. I appreciate your perspective and it's a good reminder that no minority/community is a monolith -- EVER!

THANKS FOR READING AND QUOTING!!! i felt strongly about the last part because idk lol I sort of hear people Wish for rep all the time especially in queer spaces but it's all there if you read indie work!! and if you give indie devs money THEN THEY MAKE EVEN MORE!!! but people want to give their money to Netflix i guess LOL
I curate about 5 or so lists of trans romance/erotic works here on Itchio (and regularly make blog posts about specific trans works in certain genres/niches) and yeah, I've heard the cry of "people aren't making x type of work at ALL!" a lot and it just isn't true. Yes, often times these stories are indie and "unknown" but... we have the power to change that! We have the power to uplift each other and talk about the work!
I appreciate your perspective and I wish you the best with everything!
