there is literally no difference between straight and Straightâą stop trying to distance yourself from those âother straightsâ youre still our oppressors no matter what so stop using jokes that were created by us to deal with literally being oppressed
Iâve met more straight people who defend LGBTQA+ people then ones who donât. It does depend on the area and what time they grew up in, but all of those straight and cis people accepted me for who I am. They marched in parades, voted for marriage to be a thing for us, stood up to bullies. They didnât have too. It isnât about them, but they did anyway. Because they know nobody deserves to be treated like shit. So when they are called âoppressorsâ it makes them feel bad. Straight people arenât oppressed, but when people constantly tell them that just because theyâre themselves mean they are oppressors, it makes them feel betrayed and spit on. They were respecting us, why couldnât we respect them back. This DOES NOT include Transphobes, Homophobes, Biphobes etc. Those people you rip to shreds. But saying âAll straight and cis people are oppressorsâ is like saying âAll men are sexistâ, when a lot of men are also feminist.
If Love is Love why canât M/F relationships (Bi, Pan, Straight, etc.) Thrive and be accepted just as much as queer relationships?
hey? shut up
âwhy canât m/f relationships thrive and be accepted as much as [gay] relationshipsâ
hfndhfhfhf y'all really out here saying gay couples are privileged over straight ones
How rude you are if you tell someone to shut up just because theyâre saying their opinion in an actually, respectful way without insulting anyone. I am straight, and I am cis and I can tell you for sure I have never said something like that the LGBTQA+ comunity has any privileges over me because I know thatâs not true, and I can tell you honestly that I support you guys. Im not going to say things like âI have gay friendsâ or âMy brother is gayâ because I know sometimes that can be interpreted like Iâm actually being homophobic for remarking it or for thinking it excludes me of being homophobic. On the contrary, i think itâs the most normal thing in the world, I donât remark it, and donât think is an important personality trait. Iâve lived all my life believing itâs completely normal, havenât even questioned myself ever if it is right or wrong because not for a single moment iâve thought it is wrong. My mother has always told me that she doesnât have any problems with it and that if I were homosexual i wouldnât have to worry about it at all. I wish all parents were like her and you wouldnât have to deal with such difficult situations. I donât even assume peopleâs sexuality EVER! when a guy comes and asks me âdo I like gay?âbecause someone hurted his fragil âmasculinutyâ (wich is ridiculous btw)  Iâm like â??? I donât think about what you likeâ. For me no one is straight or gay or anything untill they tell me and itâs not my bussiness so Iâm not curious to ask. What I am trying to say is that, not all traight people is homophobic or transphobic or anything, and I would apreciate if you could respect that, just as you like what you like and thats completely fine, I can like what I like too wiithout hurting anyone :C
ok but. gay people are allowed to make harmless jokes about their oppressors im not saying âevery cishet is a terrible person i despise all of them and think they should sufferâ
But this post wasnât a joke⊠was it? I think you said what you said in the beggining pretty much serious
actually? youâre right. i genuinely, wholeheartedly believe that every single cishet person in existence, even 5 year olds, even allies, should just never speak or communicate in any form ever again. im sorry, i canât believe i doubted your ability to know what i was thinking when i wrote that.
I didnât mean that either LOL but it is true that you implied that just for the fact of being cis and hetero weâre your opressors by default. When, just like what you like isnât opressive towards anyone. Also it doesnât matter what you tought while writting, but ehat you right. And if you didnât expressed what you had in your mind correctly, in a clear way everyone could understand, that is your problem not mine ya know?
if youâre cis and straight you have cishet privilege. you inherently oppress those without those privilege. you could be the best ally in the world and would still hold privilege over us.
Thatâs the point. Having the privilege because of a sociohistorical context is not the fault of the person. Itâs like blaming someone because of the way they were born (same as homophobia). I agree that holding the privilege for us is opressing, but how can it be opressive if we fight as hard as you to get you to have the same rights so weâre equals and itâs not a PRIVILEGE anymore, but just basic rights. And exactly would we have to renunce to not be your opressors? Not having the right to get married or adopt children? That would be sick ya know, because I tought the fight was the opposite thing, a fight for LGBTQA+ people to be treated fair, and have exaclty the same rights just as anyone. And if someone straight and cis is fighting to help you too, is that opressive just becsuse the laws havenât change yet? Like wtf sure justice and all equals is every single person in the world to have troubles and suffer. Thatâs equallity, and if you donât give up your privileges (that you didnât get intentionally),you are atomatically an opressor⊠Sure
âI agree that holding the privilege for us is opressingâ
why are we having this argument then
Wtf because I am saying that some of us are trying to get everyone to be treated as equals so that means weâre not holding our rights as a privilege? Also because equallity is not about taking what people alredy have but giving the same to the rest of the population? Itâs like you were asking white people to be slaves because blacks were slaves instead of stop discriminating them and privating them from oportunities to have studies and good jobs⊠The thing about fight for minorities should be that. Black people live in outrageos conditions, are treated unfair? Letâs change that. We are all equal and should have the same right no matter what our skin colour is. Gay people canât get married, canât adopt and theyâre not accepted in public? LETS CHANGE THAT. So it is no a âprivilegeâ of us anymore, but the most normal thing for EVERYONE. Like⊠Do you really want straight people to suffer just because you do? Thatâs unhealthy pal. And saying that weâre opressive only because we are what we are makes me feel frustrated. I am not opressing anyone just because I am expressing me sexualy.
There are some people who doesnt eant you to have their right, well thatâs opressing. But some other people doesnât want it to still be a privilege.
Hi! Very funy how this aged. Just scrolling trough old posts and found this... Iâm not straight, never have I ever been HAHAHA well at least I am quite sure I am cis (?
Why would Mavis and Zeref sleeping together be a problem? It's kind of unfair to expect her to be alone forever just because her body looks like it's still 12. Her mind is obviously older and if she wanted to have sex with somebody who loves her why would that be bad? My best friend is 26 and she still looks like a 12 year old but she's married already. Some women just remain flatchested and boyish, doesn't mean the person they're with is a pedophile đ
what theâŠâŠheck⊠there is so much wrong with this ask so letâs just try
You canât really apply real life situations to this because in real life people donât usually get their bodies literally frozen in time by a malicious curse. Mavis didnât grow/age normally and simply happens to look âa little flatchestedâ (like p.ex. Levy), she was cursed at 12 years old and led a miserable and isolated life from then on until her death. : DBut thatâs not even the point here. At all.
âif she wanted to have sex with somebody who loves herâApart from the question of Zeref actually loving her or just unhealthily fixating on her beccause she wouldnât drop dead in his presence (or a mix of love and whatever twisted things he feels), yeah, she could have had sex with someone she loves. In theory. But in the story, we have her entire life laid out to us in both FT and FT0 andâŠ. did I miss the part where she was at a point in her life where she wanted to have sex with Zeref? Were they ever in a happy place of âwe love each other, letâs bangâ. Correct me if Iâm wrong, but the last (and frickin only) time they got physical⊠he kissed her and sheâŠfuckingâŠdied.
Related to this body issue, but from a storytelling/logic aspect: Can Mavis even physically bear a child?? Did she conveniently get her period for the first time before she was cursed? Saying she did (because its not impossible), can immortals even bear children? Can a physically 12 year old, alone in the wilderness, bear a child without major complications and possible death of her/the child/both? Sounds very unlikely to me, especially considering the nature of the curse.
The issue of Mavisâ body bothers me, above all, on a metatextual level. The fetishization of young girls in Anime/Japan is a massive problem and is only perpetuated by things like this. Mashima didnât have to make Mavis look like a 12 year old. He could have easily aged her up before her death. Wonder why he didnâtâŠ? Ya. Thatâs catering to a problematic audience.Â
please, for the love of god, tell me when exactly (during the exactly 3 times! she actually met Zeref in her life) she could have possibly gotten pregnant????? w h e n
Basically: Itâs bad storytelling, itâs lazy and boring and half-assed; it perpetuates Very Wrong real life problems like pedophilia on an intertextual level by sexualizing childlike appearances and innocence and making them desirable. (You can go read up on this issue, itâs very real â especially in anime and japanese culture â feel free. Google is your friend and helper.)Also, I still believe The Fucking Guy is a creation Zeref pulled out of some gene pool mud, possibly with some of Mavisâ DNA (and not her consent lmao) and thus making her his âmotherâ. Right. Cool.
Hope this helped. đ
Ehhh did you miss this? because It really looks consensual to me.It does look like she totally wanted to bang him lol 1. Yes, for the very fact that we canât aply fiction things to reality we KNOW any 12 years old girl should be having sex with ANYONE. But thatâs the thing. Mavis isnât a 12 years old girl in the fictional world. Yes, she is more similar to what the first person described, someone with a body that resembles a younger person, and yeah, does that mean they donât have the right to have a sex life? I understand your concern in the kind of guy who would find that attactive, but god.... youâre the one missing the point. 2. Yes, yes you miss the part where the story showed in the manga is the one mavis herself was telling to FT. I agree itâs bad writting from mashimaâs thats a big improviser, since it could be more structured, but, ya know, Zero finishes just after she saves Magnolia, and doesnât tell anything of her encounter with Zeref later on. Also, as Zeref said when he named august.. he spent moe than jsut a moment with her, it was kinda of more like a month... when in that time line exactly the kiss that killed her happened itâs blurry. About Zerefâs love. Say whatever you want about it, heâs a bit bipolar and disociative, so yeah, he probably had lots of things going on, but if it wasnt true love, if he didnât actually desired her well being... he wouldnât have killed her. Her doubts and conflict where bigger, thatâs why she didnât kill him, yet his desire of her wellbeing was so clear and sincere heâs the one who killed her sooooo really, did you even read the manga? 3. Yes, yes, a 12 yo can. But honestly I thought she was 13 alredy?? itâs irrelevant (not so much cause at that age 1 year is a lot, but whatev) I got my period at 11 dknvkdjf and also lots of 12 yo girls around the world have given birth and 1k years ago it was more than the usual age. That doesnât make it right and of course it has consecuences on the body... but again, second master kinda experimented with mavis body so she didnât actually gave brith xD 4. I agree with you the fetichization needs to stop. But honestly, I think your critique is wrong here. And youâre missing the point. Mashima kept her as a child, not because of the sexual fetish but because of another different MISOGINISTIC reason: mavis had to be the light. Had to represent the âpurenessâ in feminity, Mavis had to be this sacred mother, virgin mother figure alike that represents the âgoodâ feminity. she had to be the counterpart to Zerefâs âevilâ. Thatâs why she looks like child. The sexualization comes along with that but the metaphor is still very clear xD 5. Youâre incredibly forgetting that during those 3 times, she spent more than just a day with him xD when he teached them magic. Do you think it was just a fucking day or something? you gotta be kididng. It had to been at least a few months LOL.... and when the curse killed her. Well thereâs the iamge and also thereâs what i mentioned about august. They shared a lot more time than you think... Also, I am not excusing Mashima for this, but it could have been worst like in all those other animes we all know about... Anyway Zeref is nto as creepy as to rape her dead corpse or as to put an artificial being in her body xD he actually FOR REAL didnât know he had a son. Itâs not healty, itâs not exactly good for them, but thereâs a reason why they managed to kill each other at the end: because it was real. Itâs nothing heterosexuals should be proud of but.... sometimes love is like that n.nU does it make it false? does it mean thereâs no love at all? No. We are just complex persons with contradictory feelings

about chrollo x kurapika
i think this phenomenon of people shipping victims with their abusers and sources of trauma comes from seeing things like avatar or whatever, where the angsty dude Zuko gets redeemed and people can ship him with main characters. not every villain in everything can be redeemed though. it also comes from things like misogyny in the case of Reylo, where a man antagonizing and threatening a woman is seen as flirting. but even between two men (i mean like nonbinary kurapika is a headcanon i have but at least according to the text, heâs generally agreed to be a man), so long as one is in a position of power and one isnt. you can have a character who is a nazi metaphor and a character who is a genocide victim metaphor, and no matter what, there are people who will ship them.Â
they dont realize that fiction doesnt exist in a vacuum. these characters werenât written this way for no reason. they represent things that the author is trying to say about people. chrollo can be a nuanced character, but i think it only extends to the way real life abusers and horrible people are nuanced. i like the troupe a lot, but⊠not necessarily as people. if they were real, i would hate them with every fiber of my being. thatâs why i like them though⊠not because i think theyâre good or redeemable per se, but because i think theyâre well written and compelling. real evil people are like that. there were nazis who had lifelong friends, there are serial murderers who just like to hang out, there are domestic abusers who crack funny jokes. none of that shit excuses what they do. its important to remember though that evil people are humans just like us⊠and weâre all capable of some heinous stuff and we need to be mindful of that.
shippers will look at this dynamic though and think it means that chrollo is a sweet baby who hasnt done anything wrong and he and kurapika can just, idk, get over the fact that chrollo murdered everyone kurapika ever knew when he was like 7, for no reason other than the color of their eyes. its not that chrollo was angry and he can work through his feelings and then treat kurapika with kindness, youâre thinking of villains like pain from naruto (one of the worst villains in anything ever). itâs that chrollo killed an entire race of people because of their racial characteristic that he wanted to steal right out of their skulls and sell on the black market.Â
I think you donât understand at all how this kind of shipping works. It is not like reylo since we do not want to âredeemâ Chrollo neither we see him as some sort of âZukoâ who can make things right. Because not every bad action deserves redemption (altough my personal opinion on Ben Solo is that he did, since he was the equivalent to an schizophrenic kid emotionally abused, but thatâs another subject), itâs that we like to explore the darkness of fucked up relationships. Toxic and abusive relationships are that, but exploring itâs complexity is an interesting thing to do. At least I see it that way. I donât want Kurapika to forgive him, I donât want him to stop hating on Chrollo, I like to think about how complicated it would be for him to also feel sexually attracted to him in an inescable way and how awful and painful and disgusting the whole thing would be. I donât want Kurapika to be over the fact that he murdered his people. I want him to feel actually, completely hopeless over the fact that Chrollo DOESNâT give an actual fuck like that. To see the man he has in front of him and realize he didnât even do it for hate, that it was not personal to him, that it was just bussiness. And to see that man who seems capable of being kind and caring for his people and be super confused over all. THATâS some complex, interesting dynamic and I love couples like that. DOESNâT MEAN i am not aware it is sick... I find really interesting the posibility of that dynamic. Also no, for the record, aI donât hate Kurapika, I love him, and Iwouldnât like such an awful thing to happen to him in canon i just like the aesthetic, fanarts and fics jesus christ let some people LIVE and stop forcing your rotten blind morals on everyone

Is it feminist or was there just like⊠a woman in itÂ
The logic behind saying Sasusaku is for straight girls and Naruhina is for straight guys isnât just to insult every single straight person. Plenty of you have the sense to know they both suck but ultimately, those are the groups they were trying to appease when they set up those pairings. Most straight guys would like to self-insert into Naruto and consequently, they would want him to end up with the woman they prefer. Straight dudes usually love Hinata because she has huge tits and always fawns over Naruto. On the other side of the coin, most straight ladies prefer Sasuke and want him to be with Sakura because they can put themselves in her place and live the fantasy of âbeing the one exceptionâ to his dark and brooding personality. SNS very obviously has the most romantic potential but straight guys donât want to fuck Sasuke and straight girls generally do not want to insert themselves into Narutoâs role and be with Sasuke as a gay pairing. I respect straight people who donât fall into that trap but ultimately, SS and NH were somehow endgame because that would appease the majority of their audience who are straight. Thatâs all we are trying to say.Â
I know, I havenât posted in a while, Iâm working a lot, so here, have some hand holding Reylo in Episode IX costumes <3
