so it all began years ago when ikea made the shark plushy and because as trans women we have zero things to relate to some girly was like omg the mouth is pink then white and blue like tranny flag (plus its a big shark so sexy)!!! then via the famous chronically online autistic transfem networks such as reddit / tumblr / discord .... mastodon ....... it spread through silly memes, kinky underwear selfies, anime profile pictures, and a general affection-starving trauma than only an oversized shark plushy can fill. lot of tgirlies buys them, it becomes an icon like if its in the corner of a bedroom selfy it screams TRANS (invisible to the eyes of the cis people), some even take it to the pride events, its in the name of forum and instances, of course there is porn with it because we're all sluts (its in the news), etcaetera etcaetera. until today's day where it feels like when the doctor prescribe your first estrogen they also add blahaj or something.
and because whatever counter projections will be integrated in the product itself by capitalism ikeas started to brand the plushy like hashtag ally like hehe we know so cool right ??? but of course it sounds the same way than your dad saying 67
