#freakperspesque

pt: freakperspesque / weirdoperspesque

A perspesque term for people who feel as if being a freak or being a weirdo is inherently tied to how they want to be seen, and/or is deeply tied to how you want others to perceive you. Especially (but not necessarily) for reclaiming from social out-casting due to neurodivergence, physical disabilities, or being queer.

Coined for myself as I strongly identify with, and want to be perceived as a "freak" or "weirdo" in a reclaimative way due to growing up being seen as one in an inherently negative light.
