Shout-out to the transharmfuls and the transharmeds who do not desire to have their dysphoria alleviated in a sexual mannerism!
And, finally, a shout-out to beings who are being harassed sexually, romantically, in any way, because of uncomfortable parasocial attractions,
because of being in what may be deemed as a sexual-focused space,
because of other beings wanting a relationship with you when you don't desire one,
because you're with someone and another who's crushing on you is upset,
because people don't respect boundaries when they should.
I see you all. I hear you all. I hear the folk that are like me.
I'm tired of seeing the folk who are like me being ignored. I'm exhausted of it.
I'm so tired of seeing others push past discomfort when it comes to sexual posts, and concerns being met with "oh, just block us!" when not properly tagged.
I'm so tired of seeing folk constantly say that they're having boundaries crossed constantly, of how they're being sexualized against their own comfort, how they're being objectified by others because of how little beings may care at times.
I'm so tired of seeing ace-spec folk or folk who don't want to be sexual for any other reason having to sexualize themselves in order to get attention [less here, moreso on Pedi. No shame saying that.]
I'm so tired of aro-spec folk or other folk who may not be searching for a relationship being berated and pressured into a relationship, or people not being able to take a sincere no.
I'm tired of it. Stop being so fucking aphobic and exclusionary towards them. It's absurd how this happens so much. And, no, the answer BETTER fuckin not be "well they can just leave the community!" - YOU'RE PROVING MY POINT.
