Sick of y'alls shit.

I think the Evil Media Bias Against Platonic Relationships is one of those things tumblr loves to get worked up about despite, like. simply not being real.

"men in media are never allowed to have their closest, most meaningful relationship be a platonic friendship with another man!" I'm sorry but I am not convinced that you've ever consumed media

"okay maybe buddy comedies exist or whatever, but this is a problem in fandom spaces--" It's not a "problem" that gay people on the internet like to draw gay kissing. Hope this helps <3

Kissing can be its own thing sometimes. It’s OK to not like kissing even if you’re alloromantic or allosexual. It’s OK enjoy it even if you’re aroace.

for this upcoming TDOV, let’s recognize the trans people who can’t be visible online. the closeted trans people, trans people that aren’t comfortable with their body enough to take pictures, trans people that can’t show their face online for safety reasons, and everyone else who can’t do things like post selfies today. you’re beautiful, brilliant, and loved, and you don’t need to show your face (or even go by your preferred name and pronouns) online to be able to celebrate.

Anyway it's so fucking weird when people act like it's impossible for trans men to be oppressed in any way like hey. Have you ever listened to a single trans man about our actual experiences. Or are you just making assumptions about what our lives are like because Uh, Man Stinky ? Because babe I promise I'm only seen as A Man™ when it's convenient for cis people

Here's the thing. Cis women see me as The Enemy™ and cis men see me as a woman and we all know what they think about them. Yes trans men are men and there is nuance to this there is a level of conditional privilege involved but if you think we're treated the exact same as cis men you're fucking stupid. Transphobia exists

And it's not just about whether or not we have male privilege (we can, under certain circumstances) it's like, anything. I've been told "nobody's gonna call [me] a [f slur] in real life" when I literally have been. I'm a man if you want to be homophobic. I'm a woman if you want to exclude me from mlm spaces. I've personally experienced both of these. It's literally just whatever cis people want to make me an Other™ for

not only do i support lil nas x appropriating characters and symbols from christianity to make horny, campy gay hip-hop videos, i think this sets the bar for lgbt media in the future. fuck that "were just like you!" respectability shit. i need all gay artists to make their work exactly as hostile and disrespectful to the christian right as the christian right has been to gay people for all of its history.

this goes for the christian "allies" who are hand-wringing over that video too. "im glad hes proud of who he is, but these images are sacred to some peoples beliefs and he needs to respect that!" no, he doesnt, and in fact if your "gay art" is palatable to homophobic christians, it is not good gay art.
