Demisexuality Can Be So Hard To Explain Because It’s Misconstrued As You Just Wanting To Trust The

really not sure when it happened or why but personally I'm pissed that the queer community at large seems to have given up ground on the "people with penises/vulvas/testes/ovaries" language to sex & gender essentialists in exchange for the much less precise, much more demeaning "AGAB" language.

is it because you're scared of the word vulva? of acknowledging out loud that some people have penises? of recognising that many many people, including but certainly not limited to trans people, have mixed sex characteristics that cannot be accurately summarised by "afab/amab" as shorthand for "female/male"?

"in [GENITAL RELATED] situation AFABs will need to do X and AMABs will need to do Y" there are "afabs" with penises and "amabs" with vulvas. Saying this shit makes you look so unserious & honestly transphobic (given the ongoing erasure of post-op trans people within broader community). Intersex people and GRS have both existed for long enough (fucking forever and, decades, respectively) that we should well past making this basic fucking mistake.

quit referring to people by a vague & often violent event that happened at their birth as though it defines ANYTHING about how they & their body currently operate, and start using precise language so you at least look like you know what you're fucking talking about.

How do I ascend to deity status? I yearn to be a spirit intertwined with the forest.

Ace people get a lot of "asexual people aren't oppressed" and it's so important to point out the injustices we face. Corrective rape, heavy medicalization, social discrimination from peers, pressure into being a sexual person when you are not, feeling or being told we are broken. All of these are incredibly important topics there needs to be more education about.

I love being asexual, I love my community, and we deserve better.

I absolutely adore the way you drew them here!!! They have that perfect awkward teenage look

Oh I love them so dearly I wish them all happiness I want to see them struck by lightning

The fact that you can’t raise taxes on billionaires even slightly without them pouring money into fascist political movements is, of itself, evidence that billionaires as a class shouldn’t be allowed to exist in the first place.

A drawing I made a month ago that I'm still struggling with, and maybe a lot of people would relate to as well.

For me it's about my gender in conflict with my body, about the struggles of being someone with a menstrual cycle, the expectations people have of me because I'm perceived as a woman, mental health, and my asexuality. And it's about anything you see in it too.
