🌈💠 SHIMMERQUEER
Oops I coined a blankqueer . Happy pride, get queerer NOW
SHIMMERQUEER is a stance that, while not mutually exclusive with radqueerness, sets clearer bounds to prevent the perpetuation or promotion of harm. I felt like making it to describe better my thoughts on some matters :P
What does it stand for?
✦ PRO PARA
Paraphiles aren't inherently dangerous people, they deserve compassion and support as any other person, and a community to express themselves. They are not to be assumed as criminals just for having these thoughts. SFW paraphile spaces are possible.
✦ ANTI CONTACT
There are several paraphilias that would be unethical to act on in real life on a 1:1 scale, namely minophilia/map, zoophilia, necrophilia, AND incest/consang attraction. This is due to concerns of safety, not mere 'ick'. But NOTE: there are ways of acting on these safely with consenting parties, i.e zoo4therian relationships, insys age differences with a matching maturity, kink, etc. These methods are okay, as there's no one being abused.
✦ TRANSID COMPLEX
Leaning pro, however individual shimmerqueers may have variating thoughts and degrees of comfort sorrounding them that should be respected. The main thing of note: the feelings of yearning, euphoria and dysphoria that may come with transids are real, deserve language to be described, and community.
For the more controversial transids, alternatives like altid or desirdae and dissomei may be encouraged, but not forced. Research of the subject is also highly advised. Shimmerqueer is strongly against transhateful identities. They cannot be separated from their ties with bigotry.
✦ PRO CONTRADICTORY IDENTITIES / GOOD FAITH
Queer experiences are complex, labels are meant to fit YOU comfortably and not just viceversa, and good faith IDs have been known to be around for a long while. Also have fun with your silly words whatever
