Bold of monogamy to assume that one person can fill all of my emotional needs

Bold of amatonormativity to assume that the only people that can fill my emotional needs are romantic partners

You say:

“ All women are beautiful”

but what you probably mean is:

“All women have value.”

And the reason you’re mixing up those two words is that you’ve been raised to believe that only beauty can confer value on women.

You know what should be a thing, aromantic - polyamourous solidarity. Like I know it seems like I’m talking about things that are completely opposite, but think about it

- both groups reject conventional relationship ideas

- we all don’t believe in the idea of finding that one, single romantic partner that will be more important than anyone else in our lives (whether we don’t want a romantic partner at all or we want multiple, equally important ones)

- referring to above, we all get told one day we will find that person that will make us see the light of monogamous romantic love or whatever

- both polyam people and allosexual aros get shoved into the stereotype of asshole who just wants to sleep around without commitment

- our relationships of choice don’t get the same kind of privileges romantic ones do (whether because we don’t want to marry or because we can’t marry multiple people)

- some people are both aromantic and polyamourous

Idk I just think we could get along

Is it just me or is the “body positive” movement not working? Like at all?

Other people have said this before/better, but the problem was presenting all women as beautiful as opposed to eliminating the need for women to be beautiful

It’s not working because the focus is STILL on trying to view yourself as attractive no matter how you look, instead of (as stated above) eliminating the need to feel “attractive.“

The body positive movement SHOULD be focused on bodily autonomy and taking care of your health. The best way to be “positive” toward your body is to treat it well, not by repeating some “I am beautiful” mantra over and over. You don’t have to be pretty. You don’t have to see yourself as pretty. Others don’t have to see you as pretty. PRETTY IS NOT IMPORTANT. Pretty is not your worth. You exist for you, not for anyone else’s gaze.

Fuck society's expectation that physical closeness is only for romantic or sexual relationships. Cuddle your friends, hold their hand, share a bed. Friendships can be as physical as datemates.

the worst sound in the world is a man giving their opinion on a woman’s appearance

the fact that people reduce trans* women to automatically not having vaginas is just wtf is wrong with you people 

Wasn’t born to please anyone, fuck y'all

“What has violence against Nazis ever accomplished?” 

The end of the holocaust, for starters, ya lollipops. 

I actually love this post

At 17, I was a depressed teenager who self harmed and wondered about just how painful it could possibly be to end my life.

Right now, I’m laying on the couch, and I can hear my husband reading our four year old a bedtime story using silly voices.

Life gets better. Make sure you’re there to see it.

I just started crying.

this is very important
