people’s reactions to the word amatanormativity is so funny. like oh noo, does the bg scary word scare you 🥺? Is it the fact that it’s associated with aspec people?

or is it both? anyway i think if you can wrap your head around the word hetenormativity and what it means, than you can almost certainly wrap your head around the word amatanormativity too. and if you act liie you can’t, you should get bitten

#annoying aro tag #.r rambles #in case you’re genuinely ?? about amatanormativity’s meaning #it was coined by elizabeth brake #(some professor)#as basically the assumption that monogamous non platonic relationships is a normal & universal goal that should be heled higher than other-#relationships #so just like herternormativity is about the assumption of a (usually cis) m/f relationship #as the goal and something most if not all people want #and should want #amatanormativity is that but with the assumption of priorization of monogamy non platonic relationshops #as normal and what everyone wants or should want #it’s not just about how society handles and assumes non platonic stuff #it’s about the assumption of monogamy too #which is why you may see the word being mentioned or used in a poly context/by poly people
