the argument that heterosexual aro boys are like….inherently more misogynistic than non-aro hetero boys makes me pretty uncomfortable, especially because it seems to be predicated on the notion that being romantically attracted to someone entails a greater level of respect for them and you can’t respect someone unless you’re romantically attracted to them. which is……….. Bad

Old cranky tired lesbian on the aro/ace spectrums here to say:

If you’re gonna pull that “heteroromantic asexual/aromantic heterosexual people don’t belong in LGBT+ spaces!!” bullshit, you can just walk on out. Unfollow me. Block me! Go ahead. I don’t care.

Or, you can stay a moment and listen.

I’m fine with people having more specific spaces. Lesbian spaces, trans spaces, bi spaces–ace spaces! All good. I am fine with, say, heteroromantic aces not being in lesbian-only spaces. (Are there lesbian-only spaces?)

But the general LGBT+ community? No. Hell no. You are ignoring over a century of history because you do not understand how someone else’s mind and heart works. Trust me when I say we are in this together. Trust me when I say that heteromantic aces and aro heterosexual people are not seen as straight by straight people.

“Straight” is a definition of exclusion. Full stop. The history of “overlap” between trans and queer people also includes overlap with asexuals. Going back literally decades.

I get that a lot of people on this site are teenagers and may not be aware of that stuff, so fine. Go read up on the history. Listen to people. Learn from people.

Stop the aphobia. Educate yourself. Stop trying to throw out people who’ve literally always been here.

And for fuck’s sake, stop using “the discourse” just please stop it’s not funny.

i have a second Discourse post to respond to but this truscum one is going to take me all day. i think i should get sources for it too but i also want to do something else today apart from thinking about truscum

i mean, right? this checks out? btw “amphetosexual” is a neuro-sexuality i just coined, where one’s sense of sexuality is inextricably tied with being a crystal meth addict. i’ve stopped going to AA because it’s conversion therapy for me as an amphetosexual. i hope i can count on your support as i journey into mogai micro-identities.

What the actual hell is wrong with you fucks. Why the *hell* do you think conversion therapy jokes are funny in ANY context? Like. What the actual hell. -mod karkles

ummmmm it’s not a joke? twelve step recovery is conversion therapy for ampheto-sexuals like myself. why do you hate neuro-sexualities? why are you being so ableist toward neurodivergent people? do you hate addicts or what???

Dude. You’re existence is a joke. You literally exist on this blog to mock people. I don’t hate neurodivergent people. I don’t hate neuro-sexualities. I’m not the one fucking mocking them.

@diskhorsedudes gem im dyin. I got called ableist for callin out someone for mocking the idea of conversion therapy

hey gay mentally ill alcoholic here, what the actual fuck you demon? just don’t talk about mental illness ever again if this is the shit that’s going to fall out of your mouth

hey, tweaker faggot here, and no. i’m not the one tacitly admitting that “ampheto-sexual” is a valid “neuro-sexuality” lmao

yeah no? no one gives a shit about your bad joke, but you’re attacking the very fucking basic idea that someone’s mental illness can affect their sexuality. and your awful conversion therapy joke? it’s bad. you have no reason to joke about that, and​ you laughing at someone bringing up ableism? do you honest to god think you’re funny,relevant, interesting? let people call their sexuality whatever they fucking want, you don’t need to become the living embodiment of family guy humour over it

so hold up, am i allowed to call myself an ampheto-sexual or not

and, if i am, if it’s perfectly fine to define my sexuality as “meth addict,” then how is calling Crystal Meth Anonymous “conversion therapy” out of line? because, if we go by the ace community’s (wrong) definition of “conversion therapy,” then 12 step recovery is literally ableist conversion therapy for anyone who falls on the addict-sexual spectrum!

if you think i’m making fun of the idea that mental illness can inform a person’s experience of sexuality, allow me to clarify: being a meth addict, an alcoholic, (and also HIV+) are all inextricably tied to my self-conception as a gay man. but that doesn’t make me “ampheto-sexual” lmao, i’m still just gay. i’m making fun of your politics, not your experiences.

did u just say the conversion therapy joke again? that’s your response when people tell you to stop making fun of people’s sexualities? thanks south park this has been real fun

and, my politics not my experiences? do you think my politics is making microlabels because they’re cool? or do you think maybe my politics is letting people define themselves​ however they like without deserving ridicule? because no one decides how to define them but themselves? people are making microlabels when they feel they need to describe something that there isn’t a word for yet, and I don’t see what’s wrong with people fucking describing themselves. do you really think people are coming up with microlabels to piss you off or something​? i still remember how it feels to come out and hear someone tell me i must be fucking delusional, how do you forget that? how do you keep making these jokes to make people doubt their own damn sexuality and gender and still think you’re fucking revolutionary

Like, that’s one of the most insidious things cis people have done to us, create this idea that we suffer because we are trans and not because of how we are treated for being trans. 

I mean, it constituted a huge “discovery” in the psych world when research showed that rampant depression and increased risk of suicide in trans people was tied to how badly we are isolated and alienated, and that conclusion would likely never have been reached without transness first being slowly de-pathologized, and thus not treated as just being something that is conveniently co-morbid with debilitating mental illness. 

Cis people are deeply invested in any narrative that removes their involvement in our suffering and thus places the onus of change on us, demanding we subject ourselves to a psychiatric community that first attempts to obliterate our transness before it even considers helping facilitate it.

This misdirection of responsibility needs to be called out for what it is, an act of violence against trans people at the hands of cis people, and whether its through media, or medical discourse, or casual cissexism, it needs to fucking stop, and y’all cis folk need to hold yourselves accountable for how you perpetuate it.

Holy fuck

transmed voice: I have never once considered psychology as a discipline to be anything but completely Objective. If something is listed as a mental illness, then it is! I’ve never heard of the word “pathologisation” in my life and I don’t have enough historical knowledge to understand how science and academia can be tools against marginalised people. I’ve never heard about how women masturbating and black people wanting to escape slavery have also been classified as mental illnesses, or i’m naive enough to think that the systems that once enabled this have changed or dissapeared.

i also just hate trans people who scrape enough self-esteem together to not hate their body, and will fight against trans positivity at every turn 🙂 This is what I Objectively think as a Fellow Trans, and i’m going to avoid thinking about how every thing i say benefits TERFs and other people who will send me to conversion camp the second they get the chance 🙂

i’m also a conservative or libertarian leaning trans guy under the age of 21

sorry if me Stating the Facts offends you sweaty :’)

Yeah and black cats are bad luck and witches were hung. Times have changed with scientific evidence.

thanks but i’ve already got “i’m naive enough to think that the systems that enabled this have changed or dissapeared”
