I have a friend I know from when we were both 6. She is the only person living nearby and so she saw me go from walking through limping to wheelchair on a daily basis. I keep her updated on my health even tho we rarely hang out anymore. She was gonna come over yesterday and I had to cancel. She asked if I can’t hang out later that day. When I said i won’t feel better later, that if I feel that bad in the morning later will only get worse she got annoyed and “joked” that I’m just finding excuses. And I was surprised, she knows all about me being disabled after all? So, a bit taken aback, I told her it’s a normal thing for me.

“But you got the diagnosis now, aren’t you better?? I thought you’ll get better now”

as in showed up to a place

she says no nope nu uh I know nothing about computers and he goes WE'LL TRAIN YOU PLEASE WE NEED PEOPLE and yanks her off her feet and through the door

today she's a highly sought after computer technician making bank

Acephobia is written off by acephobes as non-existent or, at most, online bullying, unlike homophobia which involves REAL harm -> asexuals & allies point out examples of how acephobia can be undeniably harmful and targeted at asexuals, such as someone being raped in an attempt to correct their asexuality -> instead of acknowledging that acephobia does involve serious real-world harm, discoursers switch to "well ACTUALLY corrective rape only applies to lesbians, so asexuals are lesbophobic for insisting they can experience it!"

Anyways, the HRW also has said in this report:

Much of the recent media coverage of violence against lesbians and transgender men has been characterized by a focus on “corrective rape,” a phenomenon in which men rape people they presume or know to be lesbians in order to “convert” them to heterosexuality. While the focus on “corrective rape” draws attention to an important aspect of the problem, it also detracts from the larger set of issues fueling violence and discrimination against lesbians and transgender men. A narrow focus on “corrective rape” can give the mistaken impression that only “butch lesbians” are subject to sexual assault, or that rape is the only issue of concern, or that sexual assault faced by a lesbian is qualitatively different from and more serious than sexual assault against a person who is not identified as a lesbian. Local and international campaigns have condemned the practice and state responses have also focused on so-called “corrective rape.”

particularly during ace discourse people would frequently wiggle all over the place trying to requalify why aces might face sexual violence without it being bigotry against asexuals. someone would share their experience and, if the discourser didn't feel comfortable calling them a liar to their face (though sometimes they did) they would say well that's just misogyny! someone would say actually my rapist said directly that it was because I was asexual, and the discourser says well that sucks but it doesn't make it oppression, does it? lots of people get raped. if the person continues to push, or points out that they are not a woman or their rapist was a woman, they are called a lesbophobe and told to just shut the fuck up.

skinny people please reblog this one

It came from “diamoric”, which describes the non-straight, non-same-gender but intrinsically queer nature of relationships involving a nonbinary person (or multiple nonbinary people).

So like, a relationship between a girl and an agender person is diamoric and the agender person is the girl’s diamour!

Or, an androgyne and a genderfluid person dating are diamours!
