kids were roleplaying with minecraft figurines and one of them had their figure go up to the other and say “i’m in love with you” and the other one replied “sword slash to the chest. and you’re on fire”

I had my first appointment with a new therapist today, and when I told her I was aromantic and asexual, her first question was if I had experienced sexual trauma

This is amatonormativity.

Caedrose (people who lose sexual & romantic attraction due to trauma) and stresrose (people who lose sexual & romantic attraction due to stress, mental health issues, or trauma) are valid aroaces, but it is disgustingly inappropriate to ask someone if their asexuality or aromanticism is due to sexual trauma. It is inappropriate to ask ANYONE "do you have sexual trauma" after they come out to you, regardless of what the orientation/identity is.

It doesn't matter that she is a therapist. Making assumptions that someone's orientation is the result of trauma perpetuates the stereotype that aroaces don't exist outside of trauma.

Also, as a therapist, she should know better than to randomly bring up sexual trauma anyways, because not everyone is mentally prepared to delve into that. Even crazier that she did this on her FIRST DAY with you.

"You're not allowed to complain about me doing x behavior because it's not a form of systemic discrimination." Okay what if I told you that there are things in the world that are bad besides systemic discrimination. What if I told you that while x behavior may not be systemic discrimination, it is still asshole behavior. It's still antisocial (opposite of prosocial). It still makes the world worse. It's still makes you a tar pit.

"Everyone should just do whatever they want as long as it's not systemic discrimination against marginalized people" is an abysmally low bar and I actually do think humans are capable of more. I actually do believe we can have a world where we are kind to each other and care for each other. I am going to hold people to a higher standard and say so when people aren't meeting it. I would like us not to be tar pits.

more than anything i want a world where a trans girl realizing she is a trans girl faces zero fear from that realization and subsequent coming out. Where she can say "Oh sweet, I can just be a girl? Sign me up!", no worrying if shes girl enough, no worrying if society will accept her, no worrying if she'll be an attractive girl as she transitions, no worrying at all in any way shape or form.

Remember when Xbox was going to basically ban used games for the xbox one, and Playstation made fun of them with that video titled "how to share games on Playstation" and it was just one guy handing another a game disk? And now Playstation is getting rid of physical disks entirely

It’s like they expect us to just forget their original marketing schemes in favor of more and more money grabs.
