The thing about Freud specifically is that his writing is not psychologically sound at all for modern standards but I think the Humanities ended up in a weird loop where Freud is famous and influential because Freud is famous and influential. I think it's like. Freud writes his theories - they become well known and taught because he's Freud - they become internalized by people - people's works become influenced by this - allowing people to analyze works from a Freudian perspective - justifying Freud to be taught. It's a social construct. like gender. but only a hundred years old. and somehow even weirder than gender. and also directly related to gender. meaning that we need to get rid of both. let's abolish gender and Freud together. please.
I keep seeing people COMPLETELY misunderstand the phrase "social construct", so im going to explain it as simply as I possibly can:
"Social construct" by definition means: an idea that has been created and accepted by the people in a society.
What does this mean? Almost everything that makes a society IS a social construct. Language? Social construct. Money? Social construct. I could go on but hopefully you get the point.
Social constructs are NOT MEANINGLESS!! They are a foundation to society, theyre important!! They help us understand ourselves, others, and the society we live in! When someone says something (like gender) is a social construct, they arent saying "oh well this is fake and doesnt matter at all" theyre saying "its not a scientific fact, and acting like it is would be detrimental to the entire concept in the first place".
Anyways sorry for the rant but im tired.
"Gender is a social construct" doesn't mean that gender isn't real - gender is something that, far too often, quite literally determines whether some people live or die. What it actually means that gender is arbitrary and made up
That's because gender doesn't inherently exist. Humans made up how that shit works, slapped labels on it, and went from there
"Race is a social construct" doesn't mean that race isn't real - race is something that, far, far, far too often, quite literally determines whether some people live or die. What is actually means is that race is arbitrary and made up
That's because race doesn't inherently exist. Humans (read: white people) made up how that shit works in 1492 to justify slavery and genocide, slapped labels on it, and went from there

Now, obviously, this feels pretty paradoxical to some people. How can something be made up if it's something that's real?
The example I find most useful to illustrate this is money.
Money is, indisputably, real. It also far, far too often determines whether some people live or die.
Money is also a social construct. There's no inherent value to a dollar bill. A dollar bill itself doesn't have any use - doesn't provide any value in and of itself - besides, like, dollar bill origami, or as a shitty post-it note.
A dollar bill has value because - and only because - we have all collectively decided that it does. And only those specific dollar bills! You can't print your own, you can't use monopoly money, etc. etc.
Because money is arbitrary and made up
Same with any other currency - it has value only because a government has decided that it does, and society has gone along with it (though coins, at least, you could melt down for a bit of metal or fashion into jewelry). Even more so with the 1s and 0s on your bank account screen
And yet - millions and millions of people have died for the lack of money
Race and gender work the same way
Yet another reason we really need to fucking build a world where these things don't determine whether anyone lives or dies
As soon as we possibly can
Who am i wihout you?
I like the locked tomb, this was actually started as a practice instead of a fanart, maybe that's why it looks weird or idk

Giggling a bit, knowing that out of the two, Grace is the most jealous, but Simon is more possessive in the way of watching a shelter dog politely resource gaurd.
Ive written on this subject before, How Grace gets jealous of his friendships, esspecially if he ends up being the one left out. This is not a "Someone is flirting with my partner and im pissed" (COUGH rocky COUGH who said that?) jealous this is the betrayal kind of "Youre supposed to be MY friend too" kind of jealous.
Grace has this thing where if he feels he's becoming too disconnected from one of his friends he will personally freak the hell out. Try hard to figure out what he's done wrong and try to mend their relationship. The thing is, sometimes its so overwhelming that he accidently becomes resentful towards the other friend. He knows its stupid and he hates it. He shouldn't be jealous of his friends' other friends. Thats dumb, but he can't help but feel like they're taking time away from him in a sense.
This is a "lets all go hang out but lets not ask ryland to come" situation. If he's invited and welcome in the conversation (and not just ignored or trailing behind) he is more then happy- but sometimes he gets upset. Like on Erid, if after a while Rocky starts spending time without him, he gets very emotional and will cry (also probably codependency but same applies if a human does it in his younger days) he starts wishing he could experiance and do what other Eridans do with/for each other. He wants to join too guys.. he wants to thrum with him. He wishes he could vibrate in excitment to show rocky how much he cares about him, he wants to be able to lay on him the way his other Erid friends do. It makes him so upset that he can't because his stupid body will burst into flames.

a social construct can be wrong
Gender, race, and sexuality are social constructs! Congratulations on your recent discovery. Now, and don’t shoot me with a gun here: Biological sex, fatness, and disability are also- *gets shot with a gun*
