So LGBTQ+ is now completely illegal in Russia. I wonder if anyone going to talk about that. I'm so tired
I really try to keep politics and more personal stuff out of my blog because that's my escapism website but I really can't NOT talk about it
Russian Supreme Court just banned "LGBT+ movement" as extremist. It's basically illegal now. I saw the news when I wasn't home and I spend next 2h trying not to cry before I actually get home
I'm russian and I'm asexual. I'm maybe non-binary and sapphic, I'm still figuring it out.
And I can't say that I love my country. I disagree with lots of its politics and laws, but. I was born here. I was raised here and I live here and it's home. My home, which, apparently, hates my existence. I wish I could really, fully hate it back but I can't. It's home.
I get that most of the world doesn't really care about russians right now because well. We are the bad guys. But please, talk about russian queers. I don't know what else to say. We exist. We want to matter at least to someone.
Russians are not bad.
You nor any other Russian queer should be defined by your oppressive government.
I’m so sorry…

When I first learned about being aromantic and asexual, I saw a post on Tumblr about QPRs, aka “Queer/Quasi-platonic relationship”. Here is some quick information on what this means.
I thought that I was interested in this type of relationship. I have been in multiple QPRs in the past even.
But, after really reflecting on it, I realized - it was the exact same situation as with romantic/sexual relationships.
I am not interested in any kind of relationship beyond friendship. Queerplatonic, romantic, sexual, anything like that. I do not want a “life-long partner”. I love being completely single. I am completely fulfilled and content.
Yet, that voice that tells me that I will never be happy without being in these types of relationships? Yeah, it’s still here.
With QPRs, this was my unconscious thought process.
“If I am not in a romantic/sexual relationships, at least I can be in a QPR and be somewhat normal.” or “Maybe I will develop these feelings if I can hold out a little longer.”
I felt the exact same in QPRs as I felt in romantic/sexual relationships: trapped, awkward, uncomfortable, stressed. The fact I could not return these feelings would make me extremely stressed. In my last relationship, that was the biggest wake-up call. I was so stressed during that relationship and had no idea why. The second we broke up? I felt so much better.
My dream is living on my own, maybe own a pet, have my own space, but also have a few friends I can hang out with. This is completely fine! I am allowed to live however I want to as long as it isn’t hurting anyone.
Anyways, I guess I’m making this post to show people that you don’t have to be in ANY kind of relationship if you do not want to. I didn’t realize this until very recently, and if I had known earlier, it would’ve saved SO MUCH TROUBLE for EVERYONE.
transmasculine lesbians are valid. transfeminine lesbians are valid. nonbinary lesbians are valid. trans butch lesbians are valid. trans femme lesbians are valid. lesbians do not owe you conformity to cis society.

I want a girlfriend. No, sex isn’t the only thing on my mind. I want to love her and cherish her. I want to protect her and comfort her. I want to be the cause of her smiles, and the Kleenex against her tears. I want to take her on cute dates, like a cute diner or an arcade. I want to sit on our couch and watch Disney films and anime. I want to go to cons and buy her favorite merch. I want to pleasure her in many ways possible: sexually, romantically, mentally, and emotionally.
If she has any disorders whatsoever, I want to mane cute care boxes for her to ease her mind. I want to fill it with her favorite snacks, and essential oils. I’ll add a small, cheap stuffed animal in there for her to cuddle when I’m not around. I want to devout myself to her. I want her to grow and prosper. I want her to become a successful and healthy woman.
Now that I think about it, constantly telling my friends I want a boyfriend to cover up the fact that I’m gay may come back to bite me in the ass when I actually want to come out
This is basically what happened to me. I have friends that still don’t fucking get it
