there has to be more people out there who don’t ship ryland grace with anybody… single aroace ryland grace no need for romance truthers stand with me

The headcanon that Ryland Grace is aroace is so important to me. Because the respresentation of his relationship with Rocky being the most important relationship in his life is SO meaningful.

Like that’s just his buddy. His little guy. A friend, and that’s ENOUGH for him. It’s the most meaningful relationship he has and will have and he’s perfectly content with it

Recently got to see Project Hail Mary for the first time..

[yes i did end up liking it so much i got the book to read in a 3am impulse buy but whatever]

...anyways, decided to explore the fandom a bit on ao3 and tumblr but felt uncomfortable with shipping Grace with anybody because he just doesn't give that vibe. ended up using the aroace tab to find fics so that i wouldn't have to scroll so much

i didn't expect to relate to the experiences in the fics as much as i did

ended up spending a lot of time doing a deep dive and realized on the 11th anniversary of equal marriage legalization that i'm aroace [there were a lot of shower thoughts in the process]

tldr

Happy Pride

I don’t know about anyone else, but I, as a trans woman, do not know what it is to be a man. I know what it’s like to be surrounded by men, to be picked apart by them, to have masculinity enforced on me and to have my femininity degraded. I know what it’s like to be targeted for punishment, physically and sexually, for my femininity, for a girlhood the boys and men could see in me, to be queerbashed, to have my head slammed into hard surfaces, to have my genitals fondled, to be injured in all kinds of small and repetitive ways with things like pens, compasses, and so on.

I know what it’s like to be assumed to be a man, and to be abused because I am not. I know what it’s like to be separated from my female friends as a young child because my status as a ‘boy’ meant that I needed to be placed with the other boys, the ones who degraded me and hurt me. I know what it’s like to be beaten and burned. I know what it’s like to have teachers make an example of me because I cannot conform. I know what it’s like to be made afraid of being around other people, because people means abuse.

But I don’t know what it is to be a man. Even after everything they tried, I wasn’t one.

The fact that socialization is a specious argument became obvious to me during an exchange I had with a trans-woman-exclusionist who insisted that my being raised male was the sole reason in her mind for me to be disqualified from entering women-only spaces. So I asked her if she was open to allowing trans women who are anatomically male but who have been socialized female—something that’s not all that uncommon for MTF children these days. She admitted to having concerns about their attending. Then, I asked how she would feel about a person who was born female yet raised male against her will, and who, after a lifetime of pretending to be male in order to survive, finally reclaimed her female identity upon reaching adulthood. After being confronted with this scenario, the woman conceded that she would be inclined to let this person enter women-only space, thus demonstrating that her argument about male socialization was really an argument about biology after all. In fact, after being pressed a bit further, she admitted that the scenario of a young girl who was forced against her will into boyhood made her realize how traumatic and dehumanizing male socialization could be for someone who was female-identified. This, of course, is exactly how many trans women experience their own childhoods.

I think a lot of transmisogyny stems from this idea that people are really scared to see a dick. The reason bathrooms and locker rooms and hot springs keep being flash points is because these are all places where if a trans woman is using them, it's possible you might see her dick. A lot of transmisogynistic humor revolves around being traumatized because the subject saw a woman with a penis. And look, to a certain extent I sympathize. I'm not a fan of dick; I dont want this thing either. But if you want to be an ally to trans women, I think a big important step you can take personally is to examine your own reaction to the scenarios I described above, and recognize that a dick is just a body part a girl has sometimes. Seeing it as inherently sexual and/or traumatizing is a major wedge conservatives use to justify their rhetoric

Reblogging this manually. Op doesn't want credit for fear of being terminated.

Hii, i apologise for taking space on ur timeline like this, feel free to ignore this

I'm just in a little bit of a time crunch and I need just a few more responses to the survey for my thesis, it's about video game mods. If you have a moment to fill it out, I'd be incredibly grateful. It should only take 2 minutes! (You can switch the language to English at the top)

In return, I can offer you some napping cat pics from my camera roll:

saw a tiktok the other day where a cis woman, clearly very irritated, addressed people whining "why can't we criticize trans women?" by saying "because they're being killed. discourse is a privilege, we can have discourse when they're not being killed."
