also RE: catholic aesthetics being stolen, I mentioned the universalism but Catholicism makes art the way it does as a propaganda tactic and a lot of that gilding and shit you see in churches was funded by ethnic cleansing and genocide so. I personally don't think it should just be bandied about as fun and pretty (I do think there's power in political art that engages with the abuses of the church). also if it ticks you off that might be the point lmao

#Cipher talk #The grey area for me is sexualizing nuns #On one hand that's what happens when you hit schoolchildren. They realize they like S&M and associate it with you #On the other many nuns join the church to escape that and I sympathize #On yet another hand nuns historically have not been as sexless as we think (any homosocial environment has people fucking each other)#This isn't me picking on catholics either. Me existing would be argued by some as decontexualizing COC aesthetics
