asexual ≠ aromantic

asexual ≠ aromantic

asexual ≠ aromantic

stop making posts abt aro experiences + calling it ace. if you're saying "a character with no romantic attraction", that does not mean ace. that is aro. aro + ace do not mean the same exact thing, + not all aros are ace. alloaros do exist, fun fact of the day.

[quiet-the-alloaro]

Let me clear something up that some people don’t understand:

Aspec - Anyone on the aromantic or asexual spectrum.

Arospec - Anyone on the aromantic spectrum.

Acespec - Anyone on the asexual spectrum.

Aphobia - Bigotry directed towards anyone who is aspec.

Arophobia - Bigotry directed towards aromantic people specifically.

Acephobia - Bigotry directed towards asexual people specifically.

Don’t say “aspec” if you just mean asexuals! Don’t say “aspec and arospec”! Don’t say “aphobia and arophobia”!

Don’t exclude aromantic people from our own community!

let bi women dating men and bi men dating women into pride you cowards

[strawberry-bi]

bisexuals in m/f relationships should be allowed to celebrate their identity during pride because, they are, get this- still bisexual

Stan Twitter outed Lil Nas X. Don’t forget that. He came out and took control of his narrative but it should’ve been on his own time and not bc Nicki Minaj stans dragged up his old content from his old Nicki stan account.

[timesalad]

She what now?!?

[saintoflostmonsters]

Nicki fans dug up old tweets from when Lil Nas X was 17 in an attempt to cancel him and they tried to call him out for faking his manliness (ie being gay but not out to the greater public) in addition to some islamophobic tweets that he apologized for, then K-Pop weirdos and Swifties hopped on the "cancel Lil Nas X party" to promote their faves and it was just a mess

[freshbreadjpg]

they’re “cancelling” him because

1.) he wasn’t out (which NO ONE has the right to out anyone except the person themselves)

2.) he apologised for an old tweet he made as a misinformed teenager

3.) they hate black people

[murdershegoat]

just a friendly reminder that this type of rhetoric is misleading, (in my opinion, slightly antisemitic) and not the way to go about fighting religious homophobes.

religious jews still follow these laws. we dont wear clothes that have a blend of wool & linen (laws of shatnez). fresh produce in israel follows all of the agricultural laws outlined in the torah. as for some of the other laws i always see referenced: we don’t eat shellfish or pork or anything prohibited by the torah. clean-shaven men will only ever use electric razors never blades. we don’t work on the sabbath, we observe the sanctioned holy days, we believe in, love and fear God and obey God’s commandments.

personally, i find the rhetoric harmful and insulting for three reasons. one, it only works on the (very christian) premise that the torah is outdated, and that ~nobody in their right mind~ would follow those laws anymore. two, it tends to ignore the fact that lgbtq+ orthodox jews exist and have to live through the struggle of being lgbtq+ and observant, despite community backlash, severe judgement and institutionalised homophobia. and three, it gives homophobia-masked-as-religious-observance some sort of legitimacy because yeah, the rest of those laws are kept in varying degrees by millions of people.

don’t fight homophobes by saying ‘look at all of these other ridiculous laws’ – those laws matter to a lot of people, including me, a jewish lesbian. instead, say ‘do not stand idly by your fellow’s blood (leviticus 19:16)’, ‘whoever humiliates another in public forfeits their place in the World to Come (avot 3:11), ‘one shall not say to a person words that hurt them or cause them pain against which they cannot stand (sefer hachinuch, mitzvah 338)’, ‘do not do to others that which you would not wish them to do to you. this is the whole Torah; the rest is commentary (gemara shabbat 31a)’, and what is perhaps one of my favorite verses in tanach, ‘to what is good and just is more preferable to God than sacrifice (proverbs 21:3)’.

oh, and here’s a good starting point for educating your religious friends and family members. 

[fruitytrender]

wow i’ve never thought of it that way!!

[qumi]

idc if someone changes their pronouns twenty times. they are finding themselves and you need to fucking respect that and get over yourself

[improbableheadshots-deactivated]

Same with names. Don’t refuse to call someone by their preferred name because they’re changing it often. They’re finding what they like and what they’re comfortable with. Don’t be an asshole.

[mintbees]

dunno anything about good omens but keysmash and crow punk should kiss

[fruitytrender]

it’s full of transmisogyny and homophobia

[queenophydea]

If your allyship to trans people is based upon how well we cater to not making you uncomfortable when discussing transphobia you’re not an ally.

[pastel---trender]

[lesbx]

y’all when a show is lgb-phobic: dni if you like this show, we deserve better than this and shouldn’t support creators that do this 😤

y’all when a show is transphobic: I dunno..,.,. fair warning..,.,. there’s some transmisogyny…. *hard cut to man in dress jokes and predatory trans characters* it’s nothing too bad…..and the rest of the show is really good so it shouldn’t be too much of an issue… :/// we should take what we can get guys ://

[rich--boy]

“ace people” implies aceys are people and not 12 year olds

[animefacialrecognitionsoftware01]

why r exclus such creeps

[animefacialrecognitionsoftware01]

why is it always the weird skinny whites with gore kinks who pull shit like this tho

next step on op's bucket lists gonna be sending aces gore or porn just watch

[exclusiephobe]

I'm sorry are 12-year-olds not human anymore Also I thought minors couldn't be ace :/

[fslut]

Share the memes share the jokes share the joy of lil nas x being one of us but fucking remember this was not fully on his own terms he was outed. Always remember that, he took control of the narrative cause he had to.

[fruitytrender]

woah!! here’s a blueberry trans flag!!

[daisiesmakingchains]

my favorite thing that’s ever come out of those dumb “gender reveal” parties, you know the ones, is that people make cakes and other baked goods for them right?

and since everything in this hellscape has to be gendered including colors, they gotta use both pink and blue frosting when they decorate to keep the prospective parents guessing before they cut the cake open and reveal how they’re gonna color-code their babies, but that also means:

people are out here making blue and white and pink baby cakes and just, unintentionally throwing the trans flag all over their pointless “gender” celebration and i think that’s just superb

[daisiesmakingchains]

[newtgeiszler]

someone make me this cake when i get top surgery to celebrate

[the-barista-district]

What if the trans community…stole gender reveal parties?

[nonbinaryqueerzim-deactivated20]

Im all for this.

[biglawbear]

OH IT MAKES SENSE NOW THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT INTO WORDS

[thehighpriestofreverseracism]

weeeewwww

[scallioncreamcheesebagel]

how did this person take in the information “this white christian man is a pedophile” and somehow get “religious people” from it…. stop acting like judaism, islam, and other religions are diet christianity. judaism (my religion) is ALL ABOUT questioning authority. stop lumping everyone else in with white christians. this is not a “religious people” problem.

I am violently myself against all the odds

I have been molested, attacked, harrassed, and yet I stand here, ready to keep fighting any time, I am afraid, but I am myself
