#malpersonifying

I'd like to start a small project raising awareness of sexual assault, coercion, harassment, and other similar behaviors toward human beings and others MAA (misanthropy affected) by beings MAE (misanthropy exempt).

I find that human voices are far too often ignored, belittled, or even used against us, and I'd like to see a future where we can speak up about what we've been through and actually be met with the support and resources we need to heal from or escape sexually coercive situations.

I want to invite human beings and others MAA who feel comfortable doing so to discuss their experiences in my askbox, anonymously or not, and I will post them (unless asked not to in the body of the ask) under the tag "#human being voices project"

Additional important info:

Risks: There is always the possibility of the tag being used to find cismascs to harass, and this is something you may be vulnerable to if you choose to submit non-anonymously.

Deletion info: If you submit anonymously, please note that neither you or I have any way of verifying who actually sent the ask once it's up, and as such, I have no way of verifying who you are if you reach out and ask that I delete it. As I want to ensure that no bad faith actors can silence our stories, I err on the side of not deleting them once they're up, so please do keep this in mind! Additionally, please be aware that independent archiving efforts may exist, so it would be difficult to have your submission truly removed from the internet.

If you do want to be able to delete later: You can send the text of your ask in my DMs before putting it in my askbox. Then, wait to send it into my askbox until I reply to your DM. This will allow me to verify later that the post is yours if you want to have it deleted. I will not reveal your identity to anyone, but even so, please feel free to use a throwaway sideblog for additional privacy if you like.

Reblogging info: I will leave posts rebloggable unless asked not to by the asker, so anyone who wants to spread awareness should feel free to reblog.

Those who may find these posts triggering should feel free to block the tag.

I will mark all posts mature to adhere to Tumblr's guidelines.

I will sometimes add additional content warning tags to some posts where they become relevant.

This project has no planned end date. I intend to keep taking submissions as long as I'm physically able, so hopefully no one feels rushed to contribute! You're free to take your time 🫀

Some reasons a submission may not be posted:

I cannot post an anonymous submission if it includes some kind of clear identifier attempting to attribute it to a specific person, unless you DM me to verify that it's you.

Similarly, I cannot post a submission that names a specific other cismasc, even if said cismasc is only mentioned in passing or is not described doing anything harmful.

I will try to queue roughly half of all submissions, while the other half I plan to post when I see them. This is to space out submissions so that hopefully nobody's gets buried. If I'm posting others but yours isn't up yet, it may just be in the queue!
