Not sure what to put here right now. Im someone who likes to draw and greatly enjoys frogs, the ocean, psychology and psychological horror. I am semi-social and aplatonic. I don't really label myself in the matter of sexuality or gender (i'm just me, honestly), don't press me. I don't identify with the LGBTQIA+ community due to having had bad experiences in it (all the infighting, people wanting to speak for me, acephobia in ace spaces, etc). On matter of stance, i stand for it, specially intersex, contradictory labels, the a-spec, gender nonconforming folks, etc. A general feeling i have towards pretty much everything in life is, "if everyone involved are human consenting adults, it's none of my business.", so if what you're doing doesn't go against that, i probably wont really care.
Ableism is widely spread very much everywhere all the time. Mainly insults (narcissist, stupid, psychopath, psychotic, manic, dumb, freak, schizo, delusional/"delulu", etc) and on what is considered right or not (no eye contact = rude, stuttering = insecure, self-centered = bad, overtly sexual = immoral, etc). I hope to, in the future, rewrite diagnostic chriteria of a few disorders, after i graduate. Change things from the inside and all that. The experience in psych wards is often terrible (i would know), and i feel like people should be fighting for that to change. Words related to disorders are also warped to mean something else ("im so bipolar", "im so OCD", "hes a psycho", "you're delusional", etc)
People don't get a say on wether they develop a paraphilia, but they do have a say on their actions. Having a paraphilia doesn't make you a criminal, and being a criminal doesn't make you a paraphile. I have disordered hematophilia/hematoglania myself. I am covered in scars from my clavicle to my feet because of it, and yes, i did take that to therapy. Paraphilias cannot be cured. The treatment for paraphilias consists on keeping the patient and those around them safe, along with helping the patient understand they're not evil for having thoughts they never chose to have. When you tell a paraphile to seek help, this is the help they're going to get, btw. Learning to think of themselves as an individual worthy of rights and all that.
Studies have already shown other animals than humans are conscient, have thoughts, feelings and memories. It's time we act like it. And that includes bugs too. I don't see a difference in inherent worth of life depending on species. We should treat other species in a more humane way, not be cruel. Not kill for the sake of killing. By the way, if you need to get rid of a cockroach, you can glaze the inside of a bowl with a bit of oil and leave some fruit inside of it. after a while, if its a flightless one, it will get inside the bowl and not be able to leave. You can now throw it outside your house for not paying its fees to the landlord without killing it. Congratulations.
One deal with bodily autonomy i think some people don't get is it does involve accepting people might do with their bodies something you don't want them to. To all degrees, i am in favor of people not shaving as well as shaving, i am in favor of people having or not having tattoos, i am in favor of people deciding wether they want to undergo medical treatment, i am in favor of people deciding wether they would like to or not take traditional roles (if you hate on housewifes you are not a feminist), i am against "forced recovery" (if someone doesn't want to stop an eating disorder or self harming, that's not something i or anyone other than themselves has a say on. I do however 100% stand for availability of resources and professional support)
