HAPPY AROSPEC AWARENESS WEEK EVERYONE!!!! (<-barely made it in time)
FINALLY MAKING MY CONTRIBUTION TO ARO WEEK !!!!!!
@aroacesafeplaceforall
I love how like, ambiguous so many Studio Ghibli 'couples' are. They're primarily male/female duos, and it's clear how much they love and care for each other, but more often than not it's never explicitly stated to be romantic. And their bonds aren't treated any less for it.
Idk it's just something I've always held close to my heart as someone who grew up not feeling romantic attraction the way most do, it made the characters feel more relatable and human to me, and while I still didnt fully understand my identity (didn't know being aro was a thing), it helped me better reconcile with it. And I feel that's incredibly important.
(And not just from an aro perspective. portrayal of m/f friendships is rare and something we desperately need more of)
Yes, they love each other deeply, but they don't need to kiss or be a couple for that love to be agknowledged and treated with importance. It's not any less than it would be if they weren't platonic. Hell, it doesn't even need to strictly be platonic or romantic. It could just be somewhere in between and that's okay.
Studio Ghibli fr out here making the most alterous duos I've ever seen.
Aromanticism is named that because whenever Cupid tries to shoot us we just catch his arrows
For this aro week, I wanted to give a quick shoutout to the audio fiction space. It is so rare to find aro representation when I'm not actively searching for it, and audio drama has provided it multiple times.
It's arospec week and you know I just had to draw the aroace king Forsthye Pendleton Jones III aka Jughead Jones, because just like Juggie we are all royalty~💚🤍🖤
Hello and happy 10th Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week to all from your local robot! Be aware of me.
