#polyamory terms
Text
I was repulsed by the idea of marriage until I realised I wanted to marry a woman.
I felt suffocated by the idea of only having the option of romantic and sexual committed relationships until I learned about qprs.
I felt wrong when I got excited about my partner having a crush or when I thought about being so tightly bound to one person until I found out about polyamory.
I felt empty searching for what made me feel like my agab until I discovered I was agender.
These standards and pressures exist even when we don’t know what they are. Pushing a hetero/allo/monogamous/cis agenda onto kids hurts them even if they aren’t in an actively intolerant area. Ignorance does the most damage. Nobody deserves to feel broken.

I'm literally so confused as to why you would... find that a bonding activity?

This Valentine's Day, let's talk about amatonormativity.
Amatonormativity: the assumption that everyone desires and is better off with a monogamous long-term romantic relationship with the end goal of marriage.
It's kind of like "heteronormativity" but for aromantic and poly people!
Some people assume that the term was coined by aromantics-- it was actually made by philospher Elizabeth Brake when writing about marriage within contemporary society. Here's her webpage on the term!
Amatonormativity affects a lot of people: aros who may not want a romantic relationship, poly people who may not want exclusive relationship, and even people who want a romantic exclusive relationship but don't want to get married!
Why am I talking about this on Valentine's Day? Well, I want to people to talk about why this holiday may be uncomfortable for some people within the context of amatonormativity
Maybe you're single and upset you don't have a partner when others around you are bragging about theirs. Maybe you're aro and tired of the expectation that you should have a Valentine. I'm here to say: don't let the societal pressure of amatonormativity get you down. Take things at your own pace, have the types of relationships you want when you want them, and don't let anyone shame you for not having a romantic partner today.

Hello, I was wondering if you would be willing to reupload your polyflexable flag here onto tumblr since your deviantart is no longer up. I personally preferred your flags over others, so learning that there is no live post or archive of it saddened me.
Tumblr media
Here ya go! I was unaware someone knew me/my terms/flags well enough to know I had a DeviantArt page! :P
Polyflexible - being polyamorous but willing to experiment/participate in monogamy.

Jaskier, The voice of the Continent,
meets
Radovid, The Voice of the Fandom...
Seriously, it's like they decided to have a character fall in love with Jaskier, and finally tell him everything we wish someone would have told him since the beginning of watching this show...
You gorgeous, loyal, empathetic, caring, devoted sapioromantic pansexual bard with a heart of gold and the voice of a freaking angel, that sees others as they are, and brings out the best in them often at your own expanse...
It was high time someone finally saw you, too - caught a glimpse of the pain and weariness you carry in your heart (yet keep downplaying and brushing aside, afraid that others would be made to feel bad about it and stop enjoying having you around to keep them entertained if they paid too much attention to it) - and took the time to remind you that you are, indeed, enough...
Radovid kept insisting for a song...
And you gave him one...
Not a song singing his own praises - with the goal or making him more sympathetic or famous to an audience (so that the world could see him and care about him the way you do)...
Not one asking him for what he yearns for, while being frustrated and heartbroken over him apparently being so set on self-sabotaging that he's unable to return the love of those that do love him...
No, for once, you decided that you were done "entertaining others", and singing about what you think they want you to sing...
Instead, you chose to sing a song about what you need and yearn for in life...
And he learned it...
Jaskier sang to him before he left the palace, and Radovid freaking learned Jaskier's song by heart, after having attentively listened to every note and every word he sang only once...
How's that for a pie without filling?
They somehow managed to turn that new ship into a whole freaking Cruise Line in just 4 episodes!
Don't get me wrong, I do love Geralt and genuinely think he was attempting to push Jaskier away out of both self-hatred and a desire to protect others from himself in Season 1... But the things he said, and the way he used to treat Jaskier, still hurt him, affected his sense of self-worth, and left some scars.
I'm therefore not drawing comparisons to bash on Geralt and Jaskier's own relationship, but because I love the healing opportunities that Radovid's hopefully genuine romantic interest in Jaskier are providing.
i.e. They better not pull some sick twist on us, by having Radovid be revealed as a cruel, scheming villain that took advantage of Jaskier's goodness, feelings, and needs for his own gain; because I've a feeling heads would be found in boxes!
Just let him have his big gay spoon, alright? Or little spoon! But I kinda want Jaskier to be the one spooned with someone firmly holding onto him with no intention of ever sending him away right now, so...
Also, what's the new name of that ship, Jaskovid? I'll go with Jaskovid...
I also found it very interesting, from a LGBTQ+ representation standpoint, that they are seemingly going the route of a polyamourous pansexual character that might be somewhere on the gray-romantic spectrum.
i.e. That Jaskier would specifically need to experience a sapioromantic connection - be attracted attracted to one's wits and insightfulness - in order for him to experience any desire to enter a romantic relationship with them.
Will Jaskier remain polyamorous, both romantically and sexually, should Radovid himself be monoamorously romantically/sexually exclusive, and the two of them choose to fully commit to their romantic connection?
I guess we'll have to see!
But I still thought it was a very nice nuance to bring to the character.
And I could see this going many different and equally interesting ways!
Jaskier could enter a deeply committed romantic and sexual relationship with Radovid, with one, or the two of them, remaining romantically and sexually non-exclusive (ex: one of my polyamorous friends has a main romantic/sexual partner that they live and share their lives with, and another one that they regularly go on romantic dates with, but without the need for them to build their lives together, or see each other as often).
Jaskier could enter a deeply committed romantic and sexual relationship with Radovid, with one, or the two of them, staying romantically exclusive, but enjoying sexual polyamory with lovers that they have no committed romantic connection to.
Jaskier could be revealed as being more ambiamorous than polyamorous, and be completely comfortable and happy being in a romantically and sexually exclusive relationship with a monoamorous partner.
As an ambiamorous panromantic demi-pansexual myself, I've personally discovered that, while I'm comfortable being in a romantic polyamorous relationship, sharing an exclusive romantic and sexual relationship doesn't feel forced, nor like I have to make any efforts and deprive myself of anything I enjoy, if I so happen to be romantically and sexually attracted to a person that isn't polyamorous.
It's like my monoamorous v.s. polyamorous instincts are naturally determined by the preferences of my romantic partner.
i.e. In the absence of any romantic connection to my sexual partners (that I do need to share a strong emotional bond with, however), however, I'm sexually polyamorous.
If the sexual desires occur in the context of a romantic connection with a monoamorous partner, I genuinely stop experiencing any sense of romantic and/or sexual attraction towards anyone else than that partner.
If the sexual desires occur in the context of a romantic connection with a polyamorous partner, however, then it's like my heart and my body will naturally remain open to forming multiple committed partnerships with other people, often with one of those romantic/sexual partnership being perceived as a domestic/life partner.
So, with Jaskier, it's perfectly possible that he might lose all interest in ever romantically and/or sexually having relationships with anyone other than Radovid, should Radovid be revealed as a being a romantically and sexually monoamorous individual himself.
Just like he could be polyamorously romantic and sexual all the way, and being unable to offer Radovid any exclusivity (which wouldn't make the romantic connection they share any less real, deep, nor valuable).
Whatever path that relationship takes, however, as long as the love and empathy between them remains genuine and real, I'll be extremely happy!

Coining post!
Pluralamorous: When you are in some way polyamorous due to plurality, whether because you are dating multiple members within a system, dating a singlet or system and members of your own system, or because you are solely dating multiple of your own system members.
May also be used to refer to specifically polyamorous attraction and identity without dating in the presence of plurality.
Also can be used by plural nonsystems or others who don't use the word system - we are just using system here as shorthand to avoid saying plural every other word 😅
You can describe yourself as pluralamorous if you are a singlet dating a plural in a way you all define as polyamorous, but I would argue that this is the only way singlets can identify as such. However, it is meant to be an umbrella term for a mix of interpersonal relationships and attraction in the context of plurality, hence including polyamorous attraction TO and dating WITH as well as BY plurals.
(I do not intend to police usage of this or any other of my terms. Explaining the intent behind it is simply for clarification purposes. Basically, I'm not your parent lol)

orchid waxes romantic about dead bodies. im so so serious this is almost a full page about how pretty i think dead bodies are. if you followed me for fauxcest or rape kink or even snuff dont look this is the HEIGHT of corpsegirl posting.
its very still tonight. i’ve been dwelling on that stillness and silence. the isolation. do you know how strange it feels? to have romantic feelings for a thing that fundamentally cannot reciprocate or even have a facsimile of reciprocity? to have soft, loving, tender and caring feelings towards something that just,, once was? i imagine it sometimes, not with my love, never with him. i love his boisterousness, the way he talks too loudly and bark laughs “inappropriately” and needs to be moving even slightly at all times. even at his stillest he twitches. my love fallen quiet and still would be,, beautiful as ever, but too much of a senseless and disgusting tragedy to think anything good of. but with someone i never knew before they. became. someone already gone purple and blue tinted like nemophila flowers and sickly sweet scented and soft. something i’ve only ever known as cold and gone. i imagine laying my head on their stomach and the softness of their insides, not jostled by breath or muscles tensing or worried for hurting them. running my hands through soft, icy hair, long cold from the lack of heat to soak up from the scalp (and shearing off a lock to keep), with no response, no movement. i cant help but imagine soft and cold flesh against mine. sapping up any heat until we both rest at room temperature, resting for so long. kissing dry, unresponsive lips softly, not enough to disturb, just chastely and secure in the knowledge that theyd never want more. id be so heartbroken when it was time to bury them. id hate to be away so long, but there are some stages of rot that the living body just can’t stand to be near without needing a doctor, god forbid a hospitalization, a separation. id come back of course. id be checking in regularly, to see if they were ready to go back home with me. finally, finally when all that remained were dry and brittle bones, they could come back home with me. we couldnt stay together in the traditional, or um. original sense, obviously, suppose i roll over at night and send their remains scattering. but id take good care to find a good, daily usage for things, so we’d never truly be apart again. a skull on the mantle to be kissed on the forehead whenever i can, femurs used to adorn things here and there, delicate finger bones fashioned into worry stones to be stroked constantly, little reminders, constantly holding hands long after theyre gone.

Out of curiosity what are your fear and hunger ships?
ok this is gonna be kinda a bum answer but i don’t really ship much in general??? i have like 3 things from different fanbases i come back to but nothing in funger is like considerably “shippable” to me.
i like marcoh and tanaka for their dynamic and thematic relevance to the series, and i like abella being a lesbian but those are less “ships” to me and more so just readings of their characters. at least the ones that are less popular per se? the more popular ships i usually just incorporate into my art bc eh why not
personally, i like to interpret them as a really dysfunctional friend group that literally knows waaaay too much about each other to ever stop being friends. they’re kinda like a class you take in uni that you absolutely hate but through your collective hatred of the class you become best friends
like, i like imagining karin abella olivia and osaa just absolutely ripping on daan for being down bad for his human centipede, oh these man made horrors, unfixable wife. marina and levi being the babies of the group and absolutely ripped on because of it. whole “found family but it fucking sucks ass” sort of deal.
i have a lotta wips like this—funger found family kinda shit—where it’s just the characters hanging out. haven’t really gone past the sketching stage bc i’ve been gaming :3
either way, if u do have ships that you really like then don’t let this be a downer! i’m just the kinda guy that prefers found family dynamics and silliness. if shipping brings you happiness then i can’t (or shouldn’t at least) stop you
