my craziest take is you can be cis in a trans way if you feel like it. Like its literally no big deal. if you wanna be completely cisgender but still feel as if you're alienated from your agab then you can be cis in a trans way

[ID: A large, very round crocheted Wooloo. It is much larger than the hand and banana displayed for scale. /End ID]

So I made this giant Wooloo. And he’s a ball. Hand for scale 😆

Added banana for scale

it’s crazy how different you get treated in a mask but what really gets me is that when people ask why I’m masking, I’ve stopped saying I’m immunodeficient and started saying I have an immunodeficient family member at home. I am not exaggerating when I tell you this has 100% improved every single encounter I’ve had with anti-maskers. i’m not exaggerating in the slightest.

i used to tell people i’m immunodeficient and they’d ask invasive questions about my diagnosis, whether my parents kept my childhood overly sterile, whether I was vaccinated as a child (with the implication that it would have been bad if I were).

Now that I say I have an immunodeficient family member at home, people smile knowingly and say, “oh, well you do what you have to do,” and “my mom went through chemo. I remember how hard it was to do all the precautions” and “that’s so kind of you.”

if i tell someone i mask because i’m disabled, i’m assumed to be the weak link in our society, a burden to my family.

if i tell someone i mask to protect a disabled family member, i become the burdened, compassionate caretaker deserving of sympathy. how sad that i must limit myself to protect someone i love. how heroic that i choose to do so.

"love is love was never meant to be aphobic" okay and idc. Sure, it was good for gay activist at the time for their rights but heres the thing: it still excludes aros. Revolving queer/gay activism entirely around romance is still feeding into amatornormativity and doesnt actually address the real reason why queerness needs to be respected: because we are people. We dont need to feel romantic love to be respected as human beings. That should be important. Im so tired of aspecs that defend the slogan and act like its not aphobic, especially alloaces cuz their not even aromantic and yet they think they can speak for us and our issues. This community is supposed to be solidarity and yet its always us aros that gets excluded in the conversation, always us aros erased from our advocacy to be respected. The romance obsession in our community that the slogan represents is why I cant even come out as aro to my dads, despite being gay and trans, because they dont think my sexuality is real. Its why a lot of aros are still getting erased and ignored in this community to this day. Its why amatornormativity is still here. Because instead of listening and understanding us, you chose to keep the status quo cuz its more comfortable for you as an alloro. Im done with us being invisible and I am done with you wanting to keep it that way.

I bring a “there’s no meaningful difference between men and women that doesn’t exclude someone” to the function that gender essentialists hate
