SIGNAL BOOST!!! Omg please help her. Don’t even touch this post you nasty terfs

i’m crying and shaking as i’m typing this, my parents have been screaming at me and misgendering me all day. i just ran out because i didn’t no where else to go. i can’t stay with anyone tonight and i can’t go back home because my dad already left bruises on me i don’t know what to do i’m so scared

and that’s why luffy is aroace

someone seeing a character who has no outward sexual or romantic interest in other characters has a right to see that character as aromantic and/or asexual. fandom is meant to be fun, and honestly I’m sick and tired of asexual and aromantic headcanons being mocked and ridiculed because “there’s no way x is ace” or “they’re gay and that’s it” or “stop that’s cringe”

we have as much of a right to see ourselves in characters as any other member of the lgbtqa community.

boy oh boy sure am glad that during this crisis I get to experience Capitalist Plenty

and not Socialist Deprivation

I came to this realization years ago but: Korea loves Kpop girls, but don't love the actual girl.

They love the persona: the aegyo, the sexy stage, the bubbly songs, the submissiveness of female idols.

However, when these girls; these women (because I feel like some of them aren't even seen as that) are vocal about feminism, inequality, self love, or take any control over their lives; they are demonized in an instant. If someone leaked pictures of them that were supposed to be private, they are slut shamed, attention whores, ugly, or not that talented to begin with.

And this isn't restricted to kpop. This isn't restricted to Korea itself. But this is a factor, one of many, that messes with someone's mental state. Which could lead to things like suicide.

This quick "shoot down idols for being slightly flawed or human" is prevalent to both genders. We've lost idols from both genders. But there will ALWAYS be a different standard for women because they are supposed to be the pure innocent person that fits the societal gaze.

At the end of the day, if we do not break that mentality thrusted at us that these female idols (and all idols too) are simply here to be Barbie dolls and not human beings, then we run the risk of losing another idol.
