It takes a lot of courage to be trans in this world, but you know what?

It SHOULDN'T.

It's OK if your orientation doesn't completely agree with itself, or if you feel conflicted in general around sex or romance.

I like my men how I like my women

Platonically 

[genderqueerdykes]

someone not experiencing romantic attraction is not harmful. someone not wanting to be in relationships is not harmful. someone who does not want to have sex with others is not harmful. someone who does not experience sexual attraction but has sex is not harmful. someone who likes to date but doesn't want to cuddle and verbally express love is not harmful. someone who doesn't feel romantic love but enjoys making others happy in relationships is not harmful.

aromantic, asexual and other aspec experiences are not "bad" experiences, they are part of the gradient of ways in which all humans experience our complex social, romantic, familial, queerplatonic, and other relationships. someone is not harming others if they are choosing to engage, or not engage, in activities based around their individual needs in those relationships.

that is healthy, and to be embraced and celebrated, and above all else, we need to have our boundaries respected first and foremost, and not to be made to feel like we should change to benefit others.

once again, I'm asking you all to please acknowledge the gray spectrums of aromanticism and asexuality. the concept of attraction is so subjective and complex that it can't exist on a black and white area only, a- and allo- aren't the only ways you can experience attraction. acknowledge the gray!

[bizarreaizen]

Aesthetic attraction is so weird sometimes like no I don't want to date you or even talk to you I just want to admire your beauty from far away and hope you don't take it as me hitting on you.

Asexuality

[bizarreaizen]

I don't want romance or sex I just want to be a little woodland creature living in an enchanted forest and away from everyone else.

shes an icon

[violettfae]

in a world that does not want you to exist, living in spite of it's hatred, and doing what you can to make your life and the lives of others better is a revolution in itself

dont give up. keep living. take care of yourself. be kind

You're the expert on your experiences and your identity. No one else knows what you're feeling but you.

With a Twist (A Swizzle Stick Romance Book 3)

April 12, 2022

Amelia Martini’s favorite things are traveling, animals, and peanut butter. When she left her job to explore the world with her wife, she didn’t expect Tammy’s plans to include leaving her. Now, Amelia is starting over again and facing middle age alone. It’s a struggle, but she doesn’t want to be bitter forever.

Thirty-something Kirby Dupree loves life. Not always easy when you’ve lost as much as she has and carry as much sadness as she does. But she made a promise to always look for beauty, so she does her best…even when she has to squint to see it.

When Kirby’s job as an interior painter brings her into Amelia’s life, they don’t exactly hit it off. Amelia finds Kirby irritatingly cheerful, and Kirby thinks Amelia’s far too serious. Forced to work together, they start to see beyond their first impressions and prove opposites really do attract. But are they brave enough to go after the love they really want?

No Rings Attached

Lia Harris is tired of being the odd one out. She’s never quite fit in with her uptight family, and now that her roommates have all found love, she’s starting to feel like a third wheel in her own apartment. Fed up with her mother’s constant meddling in her love life, Lia drops hints about a girlfriend she doesn’t have. But with her brother’s London nuptials approaching, she needs to find a date to save face. Lia turns to her best friend, Rosie, for help, and Rosie delivers—with the fun, gorgeous Grace Poston.

Grace loves to have a good time, hiding her insecurities behind a sunny smile. Her recent move to London has provided her with a much-needed fresh start. Grace isn’t looking for love, and she hates weddings, having weathered more than her fair share of heartache. Friendships are different, though, so for Rosie’s sake, she reluctantly agrees to pose as Lia’s adoring girlfriend for the wedding festivities.

Both Grace and Lia are prepared for an awkward weekend, complete with prying family members and a guest room with only one bed. As it turns out, they get along well—spectacularly, in fact. Before they know it, the chemistry they’re faking feels all too real. But is their wedding weekend a fleeting performance or the rehearsal for a love that’s meant to last?
