Confession blog

Are you fictosexual/fictoromantic/etc? Or do you just selfship? This is for you! Send your confessions to the asks, doesn't matter if it's wholesome or screwed up! Hate asks won't get an answer. I won't be reacting on the asks unless it's a straightforward question towards me. -it/they

[ficto-confessions]

Basic criteria;

No discriminatory towards any of the askers or even the admin

Pro-shippers don't interact

Along with queerphobes, exclucionists terfs,ableists & all those terrible people.

If you think that fictos aren't valid since apparently according to you; our subjects of attraction don't exist, it's onesided etc; Get out :). Nobody is special for being into real people,you're not better than us. It's not like relationships with real people are amazing or flawless & they do more harm than good. I can list several reasons,but those are it for now.

If you're not a ficto,but "just" a self shipper, aegosexual/romantic, you can interact too! Just please respect that fictos are more serious about their relationships w f/os!

happy pride month, everyone ❤️ the world of microlabels is beautiful, and we should not be ashamed of using them. i created something for my aroace people. the orientations: aegofictoaromantic and aegofictoasexual mean you might enjoy the idea of romance and sex in fiction, but from afar, without including yourself in the act, or that you only feel romantic and sexual attraction to fictional characters. i am like this. even if those fictional characters somehow came to life, i wouldn't harbor the feelings i do - it's precisely because THEY ARE fictional, that i have them in the first place. yet it is as fulfilling as any "real" relationship could be. in fact, since figuring it out, i feel the happiest and at peace with myself!

and so i created 4 flags for people like me, who identify both as aegofictoromantic and aegofictosexual.

i made these by taking colors from aegofictosexual and aegofictoromantic flags, as well as added the emblem!

the second set is colorpicked from the sunset aroace flag. i have drafted meanings for this one in particular, i might post them later when the public requests it.

they are completely free to use. i love my aroace people ❤️

until, hopefully, next time!

I want you all to have a happy pride month and with your f/os or however you choose to celebrate with!

Since it’s pride month I’m gonna point aggressively at this article here:

The allofication of fictosexuality

When asexuality is removed from ace microlabels, we get harder to see.

[thepolymorphexperience]

I don’t understand why people are so weird about being ficto or a selfshipper, it’s literally one of the most normal things in the world.

I love seeing obscure F/Os, I love seeing popular F/Os, I love seeing people make art of them and their F/Os, I love seeing people who post thoughts about them and their F/Os, I love seeing people who have romantic F/Os, I love seeing people who have platonic F/Os, everyone in the community is so cool!

You're all getting chili :3 (if you don't like chili, I have various pasta dishes I can make)

And the only people not allowed to have chili are those who harass selfshippers

[nebbyselfships]

That last reblog had me thinking about something that might be a stretch, but I've noticed the pattern long enough that I can say this with absolute certainty:

Selfship hate is rooted in ableism. There really isn't another way I can put it.

Somebody won't readily admit that they're ableist but ask them about selfshippers, and you'll quickly figure out their views on mentally ill people by proxy. They'll call them delusional as an insult, that "these characters aren't real, why are you treating them like they are?", and overall acting like selfshipping will somehow destroy the brain and you should "seek therapy" (but the kind that is meant to straighten you out into a working member of society and not the kind that can actually help you.)

Hell, this even carries over to selfshippers themselves who think they're "above" nonsharing selfshippers, or that they see them as ridiculous for being nonsharing, when the reason they are to begin with is either a coping mechanism from trauma or their mental illness giving them a different perception of reality.

It's using a "socially acceptable" target to get away with being as ableist as possible.

[this-is-ableism]

this is ableism.
