♡ Home ♡ // Complete Redtail MAP

[@coyotix]

When i saw the title, i wasn't expecting it to be Home by Cavetown, but when i heard that first chord I freaked out. This is a beautiful project, putting the trans redtail theory into a new, beautiful light.

[@Ivy-Tellers]

CAVETOWN + REDTAIL????? best thing ever tbh

I love the trans!Redtail headcanon! He's such a great warrior and I really love him

@@102-Kat Ew what? Me being trans? This MAP? If you're so disgusted by the reality that sometimes people aren't who they are born as, then don't watch things relating to the topic :] You haven't accomplished anything by leaving this response. I'm not offended. I don't need approval from you or anyone - I'll be myself unapologetically. Not to mention, if you don't like transgender headcanons or people, then don't watch things based off of a transgender headcanon! Common sense.

[@fabplays6559]

@@102-Kat Hi there! I'm so sorry you feel the need to put other people down online. Does it make you feel better, to hurt other people? Usually, that kind of stuff comes from people who are hurting, themselves. I sincerely hope you are okay and that you have someone to support you. Remember that there is nothing wrong with asking for help, and you are human. We all have our ups and downs, and it's not weak to need other people. It's how we naturally are; we need each other. And that's ok. And, if you're lashing out because you are closeted trans yourself (which is very common), I truly hope you eventually learn to have a bit of compassion for yourself and understand who you are. Wishing you all the best, human who does stuff.

That's cool! And never let others bouly you! You are the great! ^^ I hope you have a great day!

@@fabplays6559 why the fresh flying duck do you feel like it's okay to use self harm as an insult?

[@fabplays6559]

@@Кыскивмиске Uhm, what? I wasn’t referencing self-harm. 🥴 I meant “hurting themselves” as in “they themselves are hurting”. For example “does hurting others make you feel better because you are hurting?” Stop jumping to conclusions.

[@friendsforever3161]

After reading comments, i just now realized this is a trans redtail map. No wonder i was confused! I love this map so much, and its amazing to see his feelings portrayed like this! The scene where he took off the flower was absolutely amazing. Love everyone's work in this map!!

[@Kumonekowo]

This MAP is amazing!! I’ve never seen one portraying a trans cat like this!! As someone who is trans and kins Redtail, I LOVE IT!! It reminds me of my own experiences, especially the end, as I’ve always imagined myself now helping myself as a younger child. THANK YOU!!

[@Ivy-Tellers]

I love the flower symbolism

[@lemminade2476]

This is much needed representation! Just think of all the kiddos who might see this! Kudos to everyone who participated! This will go down in history

[@SamSparks95]

I had no idea this was a trans Redtail map until the end! You should put it in the description or title, I'd love to have known from the beginning, this map is incredible!

[@zephyrwinds9963]

I love this map so much

[@squidzo_syd]

I love the redtail trans headcannon! That’s also my headcannon for him and sol :)

[@JESSICA-lb6zw]

That makes you dumb

[@BananaSoupOSC]

one thing: its not a headcanon its been disproven before "trans Redtail" even became a thing he was a male right from the start here is an example of a headcanon: when Firestar needs to pick a deputy Leafpool is given a dream from starclan where brambles are guarding the camp thus Brambleclaw was chosen even though he hadn't had an apprentice so he probably shouldn't have been chosen (this is where the headcanon comes in) but Leafpool actually sees braken guarding the camp she just didn't realize and thought it was mostly bramble. and heres an Au: instead of Squilf telling ashfur that the three weren't her kits she says that Ashfur is the father. see the difference?

[@BananaSoupOSC]

and YES Sol makes way more sense to headcanon as trans because its not disproven completely like Redtail has had kits with a female also there are like 30+ tortoiseshell/calico toms in warriors so there are way more to headcanon

[@jamiejackson1190]

I like the flags that the cats are holding! Redtail is also my favorite character

[@BananaSoupOSC]

I thought I was the only one that truly favourites Redtail

@@BananaSoupOSC I'm not gonna waste my energy arguing with you. Trans Redtail is a silly little thing that brings me joy and doesn't hurt anyone else. You don't have to get too in-depth about it since you don't know the difference between a headcannon and an AU.

[@BananaSoupOSC]

no I was simply explaining that trans Redtail is not a headcanon

I now rlly hope Spottedleaf flound an herb for _complete_ gender (well rlly sex) change for him, well actually no. She did find that herb. Yes I am taking this as canon. No you cannot change my mind.

[@Swiftcorvid_animations]

Redtail being trans ftm explains why he is a male calico since that is not physically possible, love the au! But I’m sure the real reason for it is just beacuse the Erins didn’t research cat colors and just: let’s make him calico, without knowing, as the erins said themselves “there is no lgtbq+ in the series, because some countries would ban it” but yeah love that headcanon, but that is the real explaination

[@kitaven]

It is possible actually, it’s just extremely rare, and typically male calicos sterile. Honestly I’m not a fan of the trans Redtail thing and I personally think it’s cooler to think he’s just an extremely rare male calico

[@Swiftcorvid_animations]

@@kitaven Oh i see, so i dont need to change my ocs apperance, since i have a male calico oc that i made before i knew about cat genetics

[@iiTsukiidiscontinued]

@@kitavenI’m not a fan of it either. Why are people making cats transgender??? And it’s pretty flimsy logic to say every calico male cat is transgender.

[@Embrrz]

@@iiTsukiidiscontinued It’s mainly because they is a lack of representation in the books and people headcanon the cats to be transgender and gay so that they can add more representation in the fandom. You obviously don’t have to like the headcanons, as long you’re not being transphobic or homophibic
