You sound fat

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

why is being called broken this big a deal to people though?

as an empirical matter, it is unusual for a person to lack a sense of sexual desire. "broken" is a rude-ass way to put it, but that's all it is. it's not traumatic unless you're a total baby. it's just somebody being a rude little fuck.

calling a gay person hellbound is a moral accusation and turns their orientation into something punishable. being called "broken" does no such thing. "you're weird" isn't the same as "you're an amoral piece of shit who ought to suffer eternally for the way you were born". idg why you'd need a space to console yourself for being called weird unless you're basically too fragile to live.

this entire argument is predicted on the assumption that weird and broken are the same thing, and they very very much are not.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
not generally, but in this context, yes they are. the idea that asexual = broken rests entirely on the notion that it's unusual and possibly a medical issue if you don't want to fuck anybody. it's a rude, usually mistaken assumption that's ultimately nobody's business but the asexual person's, but that's how rude, nosy people see it. person lacking a function = person not functioning in the way other people function. person not functioning in the way other people function = strange person.

it's not about people calling them broken, though. it's about coming to the conclusion that they are broken, which is a fairly universal experience for ace people before they discover asexuality. it's not even about rude, nosy people, because it's obviously a lot bigger than a few assholes.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
that's even dumber lol. if it's not about rude, nosy people and it's a conclusion you reached on your own, then how is it sort of like gay kids being told they're hellbound? no gay kid arrives at the specific conclusion that they're hellbound without being told so.

and if you reached the conclusion that you're broken only to find out that asexuality is a thing that exists, then why would this require a whole support space? the only reaction this merits is "oh that's a real thing? cool i thought i was buggin' or something. anyways"

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
except they do. you're so determined to see gay and ace as 100% different that you're completely ignoring the ways they're similar. gay kids come to the conclusion that they're hellbound because of a culture at large that tells them so, not individuals who are rude. same with asexuals.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
gay kids come to the conclusion that they're hellbound because of a culture at large that tells them so,

that's wrong though. i wasn't raised in a religious household or within a culture that revolved exclusively around christian ideals, it was only when i was exposed to bigoted individuals in the media saying that gay people are hellbound that the idea ever even occurred to me.

actually, how would any kid even come to the conclusion that they're hellbound without someone at least telling them what hell is or why people go there? none of what you're saying makes any sense, lmao. hell is not a concept that magically materializes within somebody's consciousness without it being directly explained to them.

You are stretching so hard and acting like internalization doesn't exist.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-09 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
this is the most useless comment ever

"stretching so hard" how

what the fuck do you mean by "internalization", that word means absolutely fucking nothing in this context unless you expound on it

not that i actually expect you to expound on it considering how many times the anon i was talking to shifted their goalposts

keep throwing out buzzwords maybe you'll win a prize!

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
you're stupid, you're ugly, and you're fat aren't moral accusations either

but people get hurt by those all the time, so i guess they're also too fragile to live by your standards

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
stupid people and ugly people haven't tried to carve out exclusive spaces to try and console each other through an imaginary shared culture of stupidity and ugliness. fat is sorta different imo because some people actually do associate fatness with gluttony and gluttony with morality which is dumb and also rude.

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
actually, plenty of people would argue that menally disabled communities have done just that

(Anonymous) 2016-05-08 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
those people are stupid and ugly

Fat acceptance movement.

what does that have to do with anything

and? there's no stupid and ugly people movement. there is a fat acceptance movement which is why you'll notice the word "fat" appears nowhere in the sentence you just pasted.

the fuck are you doing in a reading and writing hobby when you can't even read an anoncomm comment properly
