cozy lil space to yap abt transid stuff :3 fleur/floraqueer just here to have a good time every time someone reblogs my flags i become my pfp btw i just want you to know that
when i want more fleur + para + transid moots but this isn't my main account so i can't follow ppl from this blog :( you'll just get my ominous main blog
I've never really understood ppl when they hate on ppl comparing paraphilias to lgbtq attractions. i don't think they're the same, but i think they're related in the way kink is related. they're a sibling, a close cousin, yu know? i don't think it should be insulting to compare one type of attraction to another type of attraction.
it could be argued that it's based on how damaging it is to act on the attraction, but arguably any attraction can be harmful to act on. any attraction can be acted on without consent, including lgbtq and kink attractions. it's why consent is so important in these spaces and why consent should be more important in paraphile spaces
it's mainly why i consider paraphilias to be a cousin to lgbtq attractions. many of them can't really be acted on but there can be outlets and ways to create kink scenes or relationships with other consenting individuals to act on those desires safely
someone with a rape kink can do cnc. a map can date a system little or oty individual or even do age play with a partner. same goes for a zoo with dating animal alters and therians and pet play. a necrophile can get consent before death or do a roleplay with a consenting individual. an incestophile can do sibling roleplay or be in a relationship with someone they consider family (but isn't genetically related).
like!!! there's safe outlets for all of these! there's ways to act on the attractions safely!
i kno ppl don't like comparing paraphilias to queer and kink attractions bc of the association with radqueer but i don't think it's wrong to make the comparison. it's not a perfect comparison, it doesn't mean they're the exact same, but they're similar in the way that they can't be controlled and are completely harmless as long as it isn't acted on a nonconsenting individual
[ID: a comic with a cartoon-ish style. Panel 1: a group of people sit at a table in an office. Person 1 asks the group "How do we boost anti-c activism and make it relevant again?"
Panel 2: Person 2 says "We need a new flag!" Person 3 says "A new name!" Person 4 says "Let's make anti-c spaces inclusive of teen paras so they don't have to go to pro-cs."
Panel 3: A close up on Person 1 glaring at Person 4.
Panel 4: A close up on Person 4, who has a neutral expression.
Panel 5: Person 4 is thrown through the window. End ID.]
having a rape kink does not make you a rape apologist. if you engage in CNC or get aroused by the idea of raping or being raped, you are not a rape apologist.
a rape apologist...apologizes for rapists. they victim blame and shift whos at fault from assaulter to victim. often they are actual rapists themselves.
the distinction is the action of harming others. engaging in fantasy is not victim blaming or normalizing sexual assault.
being upset by paramisia against those with rape kinks is not rape apologia either. if you have not hurt anyone non consentually you do not deserve to be ridiculed and should not be expected to endure bigotry.
if yur transabled but yu don't want the full disability becus yu don't feel comfortable with it or don't think yu could handle it, yur valid and still transabled.
if yur transabled and yu don't have the proper support systems to protect yu if/when yu transition so yur unwilling to, yur valid and still transabled
if yur transabled but don't want to transition becus yu already have multiple cisdisabilities, yur valid and still transabled
if yur transabled and yur not ready (mentally or physically) to transition, yur valid and still transabled
if yur transabled and don't want to transition at all, yur valid and still transabled
btw i think transabled ppl should be allowed to complain about their disabilities they transitioned to
i think transamputees should be allowed to complain about phantom pain or how hard it is to get around places and do things without getting "i told yu so" as a response
transwheelchairusers should get to talk about how hard it is to find accessible places without being told "well this is what yu wanted"
transdepression individuals should talk about how hard it is to live with depression and get sympathy, not be brushed off
just becus we want these disabilities doesn't mean it'll always be sunshine and rainbows. not everyone will experience euphoria from struggling. even the things we love have downsides to them. the dream job yu finally got will have shitty coworkers or shitty experiences. yur favorite hobby might injure yu (both minor and major depending on the hobby)
if a cisabled person can be proud of their disabilities and still rant about how much it sucks then transabled individuals should be able to do it as well
Hello leftist. Your test is to understand that my race dysphoria is essentially just my gender dysphoria but in different packaging and that my experience with race goes beyond conventional races like black, white, asian, etc. Failure to complete this task will result in- oh, you're already dead.
I don't remember the exact words, but I saw some anti say, “Oh, you're transabled? Okay, I'll give you my disability. Now try living with our stuff for a year, go struggle to get by. I'll see how ‘happy’ you are by the end of the week.”
(They were specifically talking about physical disabilities, but that also could be a blanket statement)
And like um… buddy, that's exactly what we want. We do want to struggle (of course it varies from one another, but generally that's what disability implies.) We do want to have that disability. We would be happier like that.
Or not happier if someone's permasad or something. Whatever floats your boat.
Everyone hates the "Lowkey, I Chose to be a Lesbian" article, but I as a zoo, necro, & map ESPECIALLY hate it since we are extremely marginalized from the "attraction = who you date" & "attraction = moral stance" rhetoric.
For instance, I've read about a man from the book A Long Dark Shadow: Minor Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity by Allyn Walker (great book btw) who almost killed himself because his therapist called the cops on him for being a map. The therapist called the cops on him because they thought he intended to groom a child—an accusation that nearly cost him his life due to the common misconception that “attraction = your political/moral stance.”
This is the same rhetoric Malavika used in her article "Lowkey I Chose to be a Lesbian."
Indeed, being queer is not the same as having a heavily marginalized paraphilia, but we still have to question whether or not our family, friends, coworkers, teachers, and loved ones would hate crime us or threaten to kill us for something out of our control.
This is point is what people often ignore about controversial paraphilias because they are too busy making us out to be cold-hearted, debased rapists who have no morals whatsoever, and Malavika's article only seeks to approve and promote this message by insinuating that one's morality and orientation are intrinsically attached to one another.
this is a gimmick blog where yu submit characters and i edit them with the transspecies flag :3
can i submit other headcanons?
[PT: can i submit other headcanons? end PT]
yes! as long as yur character is transspecies, yu can add other headcanons! other identities such as genders, sexualities, transids and paras can be included in yur request!
how does this work?
[PT: how does this work? end PT]
yu, dear viewer, submit a request in the ask box detailing the character's name, source, and what identities yu headcanon them with. i will then edit that character over the transspecies flag and whatever other headcanons yu submit! it would be helpful if yu provide me with links to identities that may be harder to find
more info under the cut!
what is transspecies?
[PT: what is transspecies? end PT]
using the definition from transid.org, transspecies is an umbrella term for those who identify as a different species. this can include anything from animals, plants, objects, concepts, mythical creatures, and fictional species, among many others.
who runs this blog?
[PT: who runs this blog? end PT]
@lazyboy-bot is the one who runs this blog! yu can call me mod V, if yu need a name to use. the blog runner prefers it/its and vi/vim pronouns.
how long will my request take?
[PT: how long will my request take? end PT]
shouldn't take more than a day or two! this isn't my main account so i won't get notifications immediately but i'll make sure to check often
