So this term: 兄弟 abour sworn brothers, is used for gay relationships in all of the ways? Or is it also used for familiar and platonic relationships?

It is not used solely for romantic relationships at all! It is very much used for plastic and strong friendships that could be 'close as brothers.' A good English substitute is like 'brother-in-arms.' I can't say I've seen it used in familial as usually one just consider them a brother or call them brother already if they are related by blood.

But it has been used in some context for something other than platonic and other is some history about the use of this word in the past. In Book of Song, Five Elements 《宋书·五行志》 by Liu Liming talks mostly about records of daily life at the time but there is also a note about how the relations between men and by today's standards these intimate acts would not be considered platonic so to speak. Usually, in these cases, intimacy between individuals was found to be between 契兄弟 as a form of trust and to create a bond between them. There is also Wanli Ye was Compiled 《万历野获编》 which are notes of Ming Dynasty, 30 volumes, 4 volumes of addenda and written by Shen Defu. This one in particular does use 契兄弟 when describing men who perform more intimate acts with one another, particularly comparing them to a married man and a wife. This isn't to mean that it was seen as marriage but just that it was comparable and acknowledged.

I think that between the rise of Queer history, especially how the internet has transformed historical research as well, a lot of this information is becoming more widespread. I am not a historian these are just things I have read about myself but from what I can tell 兄弟 is a very wide umbrella that is meant to show the close bond between two people, to treat them in as high regard as any bond. It doesn't mean romantic within itself but it doesn't exclude more intimacy either. But when it comes to Chinese history over the subject there are a lot of documented accounts of intimate relationships between men. I would recommend trying to look more into it yourself if you are interested but it's always exciting to learn more about the historical background of different meanings and terms.

A Pride Dragon for Pride month

[jimintendo]

i’m not sure how i didn’t figure it out sooner. every movie, every book, every show, i would sit and watch or read and love it, and then my favorite character would start showing interest in someone. then they’d fall in love and that initial annoyance would spike. i’d think why’d the writers go and do that? and for every single form of media consumed i’d wonder why is it always about love? every single time. i’d look away during kissing scenes, feel uncomfortable when couples flirted with each other; i just never got it. i avoided romance movies, yet romance continued to be a main point in almost everything. everything. i couldn’t escape it and year after year after year i became more and more angry. why the hell couldn’t i relate to this? why didn’t i enjoy it? why do i still not enjoy it?

yet why do i wish i could? why would i give anything to be able to?

these movies and books had intricate plots and interesting storylines yet nothing compared to the love story in each. the main character could have to choose between saving the entire world or saving the person they love and they’d give up the world every single time. and that, that proof that romantic love is more important than anything else in the world, is like a slap in the face, because if you can’t experience love, if i can’t experience love, then what’s the fucking point?
