“but IIIIII don’t do x with my friends so my ‘friends don’t do that’ statement is totally fine and valid and not at all harmful or dismissive to other people’s relationships or arophobic in any way by implying that my standards for certain actions being inherently romantic is a universal truth about all relationships!!!” do people hear themselves when they speak

#gav gab #im so tired #you talk about a generalization and how amatonormativity and arbitrary relationship standards #where friends don’t do x whatever x is #are harmful to aro people and just generally inappropriate and rude to the relationships of others #and someone comes out of the wood work to imply you’re saying they specifically and personally are Wrong #for how they conduct their personal relationships #and you’re trying to force them to cuddle/kiss/fuck their friends or whatever #as if that’s remotely something you said #being aromantic online is exhausting lmfao #like no #telling you that you have to stop making weird generalizations #that limit platonic relationships and privilege romantic relationships over everything else #is not trying to tell you how to conduct yourself individually and personally #��stop saying everyone who does x means y’ ‘but IIIII mean y’#that could not be less the point this is not about you lmfao
