What's the terminology Japanese usually use to refer to trans peoeple? I've read that okama used to be commonly used in Japan, but nowadays is considered a slur. Is the term otokonoko also offensive, or does it depend on the context?

It varies a lot. Okama is not automatically a slur, many gay men, crossdressing men, and transwomen use it jokingly. And some older gay men see it as crude but preferable to the wishywashyness or assumed westernization of western terms. However, its not the kind of thing youd call someone you dont know or use in a catchall sense. Otokonoko literally means 'male daughter', and is mostly used to refer to male crossdressers who have a cute and young aesthetic. Of course, some trans people use it too, but thats a whole other can of worms. Its generally not seen as offensive on its own, but it can be seen as very inaccurate when applied to trans women. A good analog would be 'femboy.' There are a variety of terms similar to okama but for other demographics, such as onabe for butch women - though that term originates in lgbt discourse, unlike okama. If you're looking for the most palatable and broadest terms, the truth is theyre the same words as english. 'Transgender' is used as a loan word frequently. Male to Female/female to male have also fallen out of favor a bit in the west but are still commonly used in Japan. Endorph fucked around with this message at 03:49 on Sep 30, 2021 |

Covering different ground but also useful to know, is "X-gender", which is most closely analogous to non-binary or agender. Yuhki Kamatani, author of Shimanami Tasogare (which is great), is x-gender for instance

yeah, and a lot of xgender people use 'male-to-x' or 'female-to-x' which is terminology that ive never seen western nb people use. incidentally kamatani also wrote nabari no ou, which is a shonen action manga but does get into gender issues a bit too. its pretty solid.

Did the last thread not like Utena? Because I thought it was neat as hell. The show is obviously really queer but at a time when an actual gay relationship manga/anime would probably have a hard time being published so widely.

utenas okay but i feel it gets a bit hyped up for things it doesnt quite do, like a lot of the explicitly lesbian stuff is mostly in the movie rather than the tv series. its a good series with interesting points but i feel like in the tv series the lesbian romance angle isnt exactly a main focus and idk, even in the 90s there was stuff like cardcaptor sakura, sailor moon, onii-sama e, etc. you can argue they all have their own flaws (minus one ep where sakura has a crush on a female teacher the gay characters in sakura and sailor moon are mostly side characters, onii-sama e goes completely off the rails with that stuff in the last few eps, theres a couple eps of sailor moon that are weird about the gayness) but they're also much more explicit and focused on it than tv utena when it does come up. utena's cool and part of a larger push but its just part of said larger push, not an island.

Because I thought it was neat as hell. i love utena. the black rose arc loving rules. it gets some push back these days because for the longest time it was treated as the ur lesbian anime and ikuhara being put on a weird pedestal. like juri is cool but overall when it comes to gay content there is like better choices. so people coming to the show for that can sometimes get disappointed. but what really makes utena work is the whole. its funny and the duels are evocative. nanami is epic. im not up on my history but the 90s was when yuri stuff started hitting the main stream more, like the oniisama e adapation was like 92, uranus and neptune was a thing, and maria-sama kinda comes in on the tail end

utena is gay in an apophatic kind of way where it's sometimes actively gay but more often relentlessly negative about heterosexuality

i feel like, utena is queer existentialism, and the reason it's not on-screen gayer is because its whole deal is about examining enforced patriarchal cis-heteronormativity. like, growing up in an environment where being gay was a serious threat to your life and your place in society, so it had to be kept under wraps--that's the kind of mental space that Utena is working in.
