Unsicherheit
“Und ich frage mich: Bin ich ein Falke, ein Sturm oder ein Großer Gesang?”
(Rainer Maria Rilke)
Normen
So gleiten wir hinein in Normen wie in Kleidungsstücke, ziehen sie uns über, weil sie bereitliegen für uns, weil sie uns übergestülpt werden, weil sie sich anpassen, oder weil wir, unbemerkt, uns anpassen. Normen als Normen fallen uns nur auf, wenn wir ihnen nicht entsprechen, wenn wir nicht hineinpassen, ob wir es wollen oder nicht.
Wer eine weiße Hautfarbe hat, hält die Kategorie Hautfarbe für irrelevant, weil im Leben eines Weißen in der westlichen Welt Hautfarbe irrelevant ist.
Wer heterosexuell ist, hält die Kategorie sexuelle Orientierung für irrelevant, weil die eigene sexuelle Orientierung im Leben eines Heterosexuellen irrelevant sein kann.
Wer einen Körper besitzt, in dem er oder sie sich wiedererkennt, dem erscheint die Kategorie Geschlecht selbstverständlich, weil dieser Körper niemals in Frage gestellt wird.
Wer den Normen entspricht, kann es sich leisten zu bezweifeln, dass es sie gibt.

how to tell if your worldbuilding is Bad
i didn’t wanna reblog this just cos it doesn’t deserve to get seen but:
a) dwarves don’t share the gender binary that humans use, heterosexual versus homosexual is meaningless to them
b) gnomes have such a predilection towards illusions that gender is primarily based on presentation. because of consistent interaction with humans, they tend towards visually hetero relationships just for sake of public ease but gnomes all know gender is an ilusion
c) halflings are super community oriented. they would be incredibly accepting of homosexuality because frowning on someone for liking a particular gender is counter to community building
d) goblins don’t believe in sexuality they believe in food
e) orcs are 100% butch lesbians and bears. they are totally gay with a small side of being attracted to muscles and soft hairy bellies “but if they’re all gay how do they reproduce?” magic rituals motherfucker it’s a fantasy world
f) tieflings never have a predominant culture and tend to ascribe to human values, with a bit of “i’m already an outcast, so anything goes”. i don’t wanna say tieflings are super gay just because there is a lot of baggage that comes with the evil demon race being super gay but tieflings are super gay
g) dragonborn carry a lot of draconic values, one of the most notable being vanity. if a dragonbron is gay, they will literally be the embodiment of that “move, i’m gay” video. taboo my ass just try to stop that dragonborn, they’ll show you the meaning of flaming
bottom line here is really that if you thought the dnd races were straight you were so wrong. i am going to find you and rub my gay ass on your player’s handbook
Tag yourself, I’m a goblin.
Misread it at first. But yeah, bottom line just it is!
