Sooo yep, I'm back in my country from visiting my partner but we've been busy, so to speak
...Of course since we're from France and the US respectively, and we're just barely getting started on paperwork for fiance visa stuff, being engaged doesn't exactly guarantee anything, and this is just the start of an at-least-a-year-and-a-half-long battle, but yeah, here goes nothing
can someone make a QPR dating app please. please i'm begging you. it isn't enough to just have a "find a friend" app because every time i try one the person i'm talking to ends up either catching feelings or being REALLY weird about it when they find out i'm aro.
"but you'll die alone!" and you will not live to see it; you will die by my sword before death takes me.
hey guys do the allos know that they can have qprs too? like do they know that being alloromantic doesn't mean they can't choose to be in a qpr anyway? because qprs aren't "romance-lite" for aros, they're an entirely separate kind of relationship that anyone can have. you can do this with fictional characters too. you can put characters that aren't aroace or are even canonically dating in qprs with each other just because you think that would be a cool way to play with their dynamic. it's actually very cool and you totally should.
the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.
Yeah, I know "not all aro/aces" and all, but please don't use "not all aro/aces" as an excuse to not explore anything exclusively aro/ace ever. Otherwise any trace of aro/aceness might end up effectively lost to fandom osmosis.
To sum up... If you wouldn't be homophobic that way, please don't be aphobic that way.
