i think you've VERY fundamentally misunderstood the point of my post tbh

men and boys first and foremost hurt themselves to avoid being perceived as their lessers (i.e. women and gay men)

once a man decides that there's nothing wrong with being seen as gay or a woman, the power of "the patriarchy" over their lives is vastly diminished

but you cannot force your oppressors to stop seeing you as a subhuman. this is something men have to choose for themselves

hi hello. this is a cry for help from a disabled, severely abused, recovering from substance abuse, jobless. severely mentally ill fellow queer folk. i will have access to a job opportunity starting in october but until then i am beyond broke and distraught. i dont get to eat, i often dont get my medication in time, i have to physically fight with my mother to get help to buy other meds. and on top of all that im being stalked. this is a cry for help- yes i am ashamed for asking again so soon after so many lovely people helped me out, but i need money and with my mental and physical disabilities it's not happening. so please consider donating, commissioning me a pwyw (check out my insta to see my work) or even commission me a fic (im also a writer). please let me stay afloat during these hard times. im hopeless and lonely.

in order to not just be a bother to everyone, i will be creating artistic works that you'll be able to buy directly from me! im just going to use vinted insted of inprint or other similar platforms. you'll be able to contact me here and once the details are discussed i will work on your commission that you will be able to buy on vinted! this goes for traditional works but i also have secret plans for not traditional art as well so yeah...

in case you can't help me in any way that is so okay just consider reblogging this post. im desperate...

update! i also decided to throw in a book of your choice from my listing if you buy an original drawing!!

and to conclude this word vomit have a little eye clensing with my chonky puppy

But the most influencial and invisible part is my asexuality.

Because I almost never experience physical attraction, it took me TWO DECADES to figure out that I'm not romantically interested in men. I flip-flopped between genders in relationships, not understanding why I didn't want to have sex with people in the same way others did, not understanding what attraction really was and what it was supposed to feel like, and just not understanding why, at 35, I didn't understand what I wanted.

My asexuality has made me force myself to have sex that traumatised me. My asexuality has meant other people have forced me have sex they felt entitled to, and I just let them do it because I thought they were entitled to it, as well.

Nothing has made me feel more alone, unloveable, broken, and abandonned than being asexual.

It's eating breakfast and reading about a whole family that was killed by ruzzian drone in their own house. An engaged couple that was to be married next week, his parents and his sister. All dead.

It's taking a break, and seeing the news of a 10y.o. girl whose heart stopped. Her body sustained 70% of burns, and she fought hard, but ruzzia still killed her.

It's about a whole street in Sumy being in ruins after aerial bomb ruzzians send. It's seeing a mess of glass and debris left by a Shahed in the apartment of a young mom. It's constant torrential downpour of victims from Kherson, Nicopol, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Donetsk region. It's horror stories from occupation and captivity.

And then I hear "we are going to war! To get concert tickets". And I hear "ruzzian games are weird and fun!" And "oh, that new tv show/movie featuring ruzzians is so cool!", and another celebrity in some way shows a support for the fuckers that we see do monstrous things every day.
