Femininity isn’t inherently safe.

Most of my abusers where feminine cishet women. Everyone no matter their gender is absolutely capable of abusing you.

If you mean to say “please don’t talk to me, you remind me of my abusers”, please say that. Personally I think that’s completely understandable.

But it’s not healthy to turn the type of person who abused you into a boogieman, and projecting that pain onto people who haven’t hurt you. And using radical feminism to erase and punch down the most acceptable marginalised men you can find to target isn’t feminist, and it’s not intersectional.

If we are going to infantilise femininity down to “the good presentation that will never hurt you”, it’s going to hurt you.

Almost as bad as the transphobia is the fact that “MegayMan” was right there and they missed it.

today, the supreme court of russia declared the non-existent "international lgbt movement" extremist. today, the supreme court of russia declared all russian queers to be extremists. they declared love and freedom illegal, extremist, and criminally punishable. some time before that, "gay propaganda" was banned in russia. this concept includes even the simplest manifestations of love. we cannot talk about ourselves, we cannot save ourselves, we cannot love, feel loved and protected in our country. if we fight for ourselves, we will go to jail. we were forbidden not only to love — they banned us. ordinary people who simply do not fit into their concept of "traditional" and "correct". so please

talk about us. hear us out. help us if you can.

“They said they consider themselves brothers/sisters, they can’t be gay!”

You forget that turning a relationship between two people of the same gender into “sibling coded” has been a tool of censorship against gay couples for ages, see Sailor Moon’s dub turning Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune into cousins because in canon they were dating.

“Sibling coded” doesn’t mean anything. It doesn’t and never will stop someone from shipping something. But more than that, you have to recognize how dumb it is to use that as an excuse to harass shippers as if they have committed a crime when, a lot of the time, using the “they are like brothers” card in canon is a way of shutting down the queer gaze of the lgbt community, of censuring any potential of lgbt interpretation and representation from a form of media.

"using SAM is unhealthy if ur not aro/ace"

y'all just say anything huh? anyways i think y'all need to unpack why you view aro/ace spectrums as a completely seperate entity. why are you alienating those experiences and acting like aro/ace folk only live in their own little bubble

⚠️ Mentions of aphobia and lgbt hate ⚠️

My relationship with my sexuality has grown in the past couple of years, from barely talking about it, to actively being involved in the community. I’ve learned a lot, both good and bad, and I want to be vocal about asexuality (as well as aromanticism), I feel like so many people who are against it simply have their own idea of what asexuality is, or don’t know enough about it.

Even I didn’t know enough about it when I heard of it. I thought it didn’t apply to me because, I DID wanna date someone, I DID like people. But I came to realize it’s so much more than that, and can be different for everyone it applies to.

I’ve felt genuine worry about talking about my asexuality BECAUSE of the lack of knowledge of it, how people might react. If people will be dismissive or mock me. But lately, I’ve wanted to discuss it in my artwork, in stuff I’m doing for college. I wanna create representation for us, because it’s so rare to come by. There’s so much I could talk about, but I’ll save that for a later post, maybe :)

For now, I want my fellow asexual/ace spectrum friends to know that you are valid, and supported, and deserve to be represented. You are loved 🖤🤍💜 Happy Ace Awareness Week!!! :D

(On another note, many of the phrases used in the comic to dismiss asexuality are things I have seen people actually say. I’ve been fortunate enough to not have these things said directly to me, but knowing people have said them still leaves me wondering who I can trust to talk about it with)
