it’s okay to identify as something that isn’t a perfect definition of how you feel
it’s okay to prefer a label that’s not as accurate over one that is
it’s okay to use the label that makes you happiest

coming back from the dead to say that saying ace headcanons desexualize/infantilize characters that were already in a minority is desexualizing and infantilizing aces
asexuality is:
a lack of sexual attraction
natural
an orientation in and of itself
only a modifier in certain cases (people who choose to use the SAM and even then not always)
different looking for all asexual people.
asexuality is not inherently:
bad
homophobic
this has been a psa thank you
All of you ace lovelies are amazing! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
I actually forgot I posted this but I’m glad people are seeing it and giving them a little more positivity in their life!!

“only 2 genders”
um? stop trying to be a special snowflake maybe?? your gender and your sex are the same, so what, get over urself
Website: Male, Female, Other
Me, clicking other: that me
if cis people start saying that transphobia is just misdirected homophobia I wouldn’t be surprised
Every time someone says “only 2 genders” I become 5 times more nonbinary

Okay so this is Arielle’s apology to the dumb shit that said in that video with Jacklynn.
I am not sure how I feel about this, and I don’t think that immediately makes her a good trans ally, but I do like that it at least sounds like a genuine apology. Go watch it and tell me what you think?
Okay I found the video (x)! And even though I have to finish P&P I am going to liveblog my reaction to it, before I watch anyone else’s.
TW: extreme cissexism and nbphobia, truscum-isms by two cis women
Arielle: “I feel like there are two genders but (…) many gender expressions.”
Okay, you white cis woman. I am not a man and whenever I try to see myself as a woman, put myself in the place of a female character etc. etc. I feel complete disconnect and i get extremely uncomfortable, sometimes. So what would you say I am?
And since you are a white american, you probably aren’t aware of this, but different cultures have different concepts of gender!
And last but not least I really do not care what you, a woman who was assigned female at birth and has never felt uncomfortable with being seen as female, “feel like” about gender. Go fuck yourself!
let’s not forget
Arielle actually did apologize (just now it seems, I just posted the video). I haven’t watched this crap yet and I am not sure if I want to but my curiosity will probably overpower me eventually.
I watched Onision’s video, he said some stupid shit as he always does, but at least he had the right attitude.
Ah! I’ll reblog the video where she apologizes then!

if part of your argument is that being transgender is a disorder then your argument is bad
Truscum believe it’s a neurological medical condition. Being that it presents clinically significant symptoms and it often requires medical treatment to improve quality of life, it’s pretty hard to argue it isn’t a medical condition.
Gender dysphoria is a disorder, but being transgender is not
Clinically significant gender/sex dysphoria is the symptom of the greater condition itself, being that one cannot be transsexual without it. It simply does not make sense that someone can be a transsexual while completely and totally comfortable with their sex and sex characteristics. People who do not have dysphoria and ID as a transsexual are usually: 1. actually dysphoric, quite commonly not knowing until they experience euphoria from dysphoria relief; 2. Relating their gender non-conformity to being transgender.
I think you’re coming from a perspective where transsexualism being a medical condition would be a bad thing, when it isn’t.
okay but this argument is pointless because neither of us are going to change our minds bye

Gender dysphoria is a disorder, but being transgender is not
otherkin are beautiful and wonderful and all deserve love
but like no tho. I’m not gonna be a dick to you because you identify as a plant or something but this isn’t a thing, like at all. And things like this make it harder for trans and nonbinary people to get validation because people see otherkin and think that it’s the same as nonbinary
…but…that’s not what it’s like at all.
People don’t even say that otherkin is a gender???
