What the fuck even is sexual attraction. Like what am i even trying to parce here. Has the one singular event of ‘wow i might be attracted to this person actually’ ive experienced been genuine sexual attraction or am i just being emotionally attached to my close friends again. Like how many times do i have to think that about this person before it starts tipping into probably being true

I understand that human experience does not fit into neatly divided boxes and i get that its a good thing but it would be soooo much fucking easier if i could just read a checklist and get told if im ace or gray or demi or whatever the fuck is going on with this whole mess

Its been literal years. The entirety of figuring out where i am in regards of gender and romantic shit took mere months, and its been over three FUCKING years. Simply is not fair

The worst part is im not comfortable with just slapping an ‘acespec’ on there and going, no, because i dont care about the actual label, i just want to understand how my own fucking emotions work >:/

Catch me desperately clinging to ‘non-sam aro’ like a lifeline so i dont have to figure out how my sexuality works ever

My friend, who I was working with last week, is really lovely, but absolutely hopeless with pronouns. Because we've known each other so long he struggles to see me as anything but male and he seemed surprised that most people now see me as a woman. Though he always gets my name right, he constantly referred to me as 'he' last time we worked together — much to our customers' confusion, because most of them instinctively referred to me as 'she'! One customer who I had met a few times before didn't even recognise me and thought I was a cis woman! Massive gender euphoria.

Kinda curious as to if people prefer to use the umbrella terms or not. Personally I tend to use umbrella terms (for me just ace) out of total laziness since explaining all the time is beyond tedious for me 🙃

you know what's so disappointing? the way people keep saying 'don't be afraid to portray mental illness and disability in media!! in your art and writing!!! normalise it and don't shun it!!!' and then the MOMENT you bring up a symptom that's too messy and uncomfortable to handle, they take a fuckin u-turn and go "UM no that's bad. like. you're a bad person if you do that. that's weird and it makes me uncomfortable so it's wrong."

here's the thing!!!!!!! it's not convenient!!!!! it's not simple!!!! i can't be honest and keep writing about how depression paints your whole world blue and all that shit!!!!!! because guess what!!!! depression and disabilities and borderline personality disorder and SO many other things are just. not neat and clean or easily consumable. they WILL make you uncomfortable and sad. they WILL make you feel bad. honesty is not easy. it's not meant to be.

and dehumanisation of sociopaths and psychopaths is genuinely distressing. not all of them!!! are!!!! bad people!!! it's a medical condition!!!! a mental illness!!! a person's illness doesn't make them bad. their actions and the decisions they take decide that and I am SO sick and tired of people watering down every complex human trait and toxic behaviour as good and bad and right and wrong. don't you see!!! some things are simply just. human. that's all. people fuck up. badly, sometimes. but that doesn't mean they are not people. I'm not saying you should forgive everyone and become a full time saint. you are entitled to your anger. i'm just asking you: don't take away a person's right to err and still be considered human. not all actions fall in the neat divisions of right and wrong. some things just are. grow some balls if you want to see true suffering in media. because it is Not easy or pretty. not even close. you will be conflicted and uncomfortable and troubled. make peace with that fact.

#PLEASE do not come at me with arguments regarding UHHHH BUT MURDERERS ABUSERS AND MOLESTERS ARE BAD PEOPLE #yes. yes they are.#i never said they weren't. read the post #i said actions define a person's morality #but they are not ALWAYS simply right and wrong #meaning right and wrong does exist but it doesn't have to be a thing all the time #grey area exists too #and so does good and bad #it's a complex thing #i've been thinking about my own intrusive thoughts and how i can maybe incorporate that in my writing #but i found myself backtracking and being like wait. what if people think i'm a bad person for this #then i got SO angry #I'M ALWAYS WALKING AROUND IN EGGSHELLS #like. how much is too much #how much violence can be romanticized and sexualized and not seen as it is????#when will my work stop being poetic and raw and vulnerable and turn into something you consider wrong?#it's a ticking time bomb #and i hate that #vi talks #and in this case. talks a Lot

I love when someone calls a gamer out for being homophobic in why they don’t like characters like Astarion and Zevran because 90% of the time they get sooo defensive about it and make shit up about said character to make it seem like their dislike isn’t based in them being campy men. Very rarely do I see these gamers have a reason beyond “well, he tried to kill me! And he’s flirtatious and snide!” And it’s like, yeah those can be legitimate reasons for not liking the character, but then they finish their rant with how they killed them and how the sexy woman character who does the same thing is better because “at least I’m attracted to her.”

#texting my patience #zevran arainai #astarion #yeah I’ll maintag this post #like okay i looooove evil and morally grey women #but you know these guys only do it bc it’s a woman they sexualize and they want to fuck

Part of acknowledging and celebrating good representation is appreciating those who paved the way for it. The actors and the writers behind it, but also the ones who came before it, and the ones who fought so hard but it just wasn't enough. The characters and the writers that walked so that Tim and Oliver and Buck could run. Those who came before had an impact, they mattered and they are a huge part of the reason we've gotten to where we are now.

Countless queer characters have been censored, sidelined and erased. I can think of countless examples. We're only now turning the tide and taking those stories back, taking ownership of what could've and what should've been.

There was a time before November 5th 2020 and there was a time after it, just like there was a time before April 4th 2024 and a time after it. They did what would've been unthinkable before, and the world will be a better place for it. It's not all about Destiel, because many shows and characters paved the way for them too, but let's acknowledge the impact of November 5th. We may meme that day to hell but God you just had to be there. Broke tumblr multiple times, trended over the US election, brought everyone and their mother out of the Woodwork. It's something I've only seen replicated now with Buck. This is a celebration, but it's also about solidarity and about feeling seen, that's the importance and the strength of representation. The quest for better representation is ongoing, the baton is passed and I can't wait to see how far it goes. The goal of good representation is to leave the world a better place than how one found it.

#911 season 7 #911 abc #911 spoilers #evan buck buckely #bi buck #buck x eddie #evan buckley #destiel #i could do an essay on all the characters and ships that paved the way #rosa diaz is a huge one too #early greys broke so many boundaries #far from perfect dont get me wrong but it pushed the envelope for those who came after #glee was a dumpster fire i loved but damn it was dumpster fire from start to finish #that doesn't erase or negate the impact chris colfer as kurt hummel had #rip naya rivera thank you for fighting for santana because shes the reason santanas sexuality became more than a punchline &was a proper arc #i could go on and on #its about looking forward but also carrying the past with you #i hope this doesn't sound to preachy but anyways

I’m Arospec in a complicated way and acespec in an even more complicated way and I wish someday we could see more characters who aren’t just aroace, but on the spectrums in their own unique way, like so many of us are.

Are you...

Grey Aroace is an orientation on the Aroace spectrum in which one experiences some level of romantic and sexual attraction, but a small amount or otherwise much less than what is expected of a typical alloromantic and allosexual person.

constantly questioning where on the ace spectrum i am is so annoying.

i'll see a person or character and think "omg look at them they're so gorgeous they make me feel things *insert sexually attracted emoji*"

but then my brain immediately goes "wait. but is that sexual attraction? you don't want to fuck them, right? you just thing they look really good. and you feel something, but do you even know what that is? maybe you just want to touch them (but not in a sexual way)? is it sensual attraction? does that mean you're completely asexual after all? Okay allosexual people have said when you're sexually attracted to someone your brain sort of snaps when you see them. check. you become very aware of their physical features and how beautiful they are. check. but what then? is that already the sexual attraction part? god i need an allo to just tell me if they really see people on the streets and want to fuck them or not"

#i swear i can't see a pretty person anymore without having an existential crisis #seriously what am i #what does finding someone hot mean #help #yeah i've decided queer posts go on this blog now #and also don't count how often i said “sexual attraction” in this post lol #asexual #acespec #greysexual #grey ace #questioning ace #aspec

When did Dante Basco make nfsw jokes about Zuko and Katara, or a concubine joke about Mai?

Also, Grey DeLise, Azula's VA, has made some colorful shipping comments. At at panel, when asked what would happen if Azula and Zuko went on a life changing field trip, Grey commented in character that she would get pregnant (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7bxN7M573I&t=3s). She also has some...interesting thoughts on adult Tyzula (https://twitter.com/GreyDeLisle/status/1288056393610625025?lang=en).

Couldn't find the concubine one again but if you search 'Zuko' and 'Katara' at the same time on his tumblr(rufiozuko)and also their ship name on it,you'll find the ZK ones!And oh god that's disgusting and good info so i don't end up being a fan of her! /gen I don't really pay attention to VA's with few exception such as them being black or trans since i'm a nonbinary/multigender afrolatina and stuff like this is why🤢
