p4 jotaro isn’t a dilf but he has ‘pre-divorced guy still in denial about his sexuality’ energy

Wyll/Zevlor in that Wyll sees the goodness in Zevlor and can see past the "mistakes" he's made as an oathbroken paladin and hellrider exile, damn the systems that bind people because they're flawed for something Zevlor likely was forced to do in order to prevent harm to the people he cares about, Wyll wanting to help him see his kindness, his depth.

in that Zevlor can look at Wyll and see how young he is, how much he has to carry on his shoulders and know exactly what it's like to feel that way because he felt that way for decades as a Rider, to help show him the balance between being The Blade and being Just Wyll, to help show him he's allowed to be selfish sometimes if only to stay sane when the pressures of heroism feel crushing.

Both of them learning they can't blame themselves for every smallest mistake or wrong, for every lost life that they couldn't save due to circumstances they can't control, both of them carry heavy weight on their shoulders, both of them caught as outcasts in the very societies they supposedly serve. each taking turns being the other's shield because they both know what it's like to be Everyone's shield All The Time but eventually both of them realizing they can just Be without hypervigilance, both of them punished for "breaking" oath/contract for the greater good, each wanting to show the other their true worth and value beyond Being Everyone's Hero.

In response to your poll, no, and it's really weird that you're getting upset about the idea of two gay men being in a non-platonic relationship.

I'm not upset by that??? It's 100% possible that Dan and Phil are romantic and I have no problem with that. My issue is that people think that's the only option. It's possible for your #1 relationship to be platonic, even if you're both gay. Nothing is inherently romantic, so unless they change their minds and decide to include us in their business, we're not actually going to know. That's not me saying I'm against them being romantic, I'm not. I just don't assume either way.

I love gay romance, and if that's what they have, then that's beautiful. But I also love queer, nonnormative relationship structures, which is just as beautiful. The idea that their relationship HAS to be romantic or it's "losing something" is amatonormativity, and it's gross.

not only are you transphobic… but youre telling a lesbian that they aren’t a lesbian. YIKESSS

transphobia isn't real, men can't become women. you just think offending/not worshipping men and penis is the biggest sin because you worship males thus can't fathom female homosexuality being real because you're a homophobic misogynist. but you really didn't have to hit anon you know i who you are lmfao. LESBIANS DON'T LIKE MEN/MALES AND DICK! cry and kys over it homophobic bisexual trash

dyke draws shirtless men (and more unbelievable stories) on page 4. felt like diving back into anatomy practice-ish with some dudes: crownelius (affectionate) minus tattoos and val (derogatory).

my ex boyfriend and my bully from hs just got divorced, what we drinking girls.

[ghostliest-ghosty-ghost-bastard]

Psgay folks, if your in the Midwest or some other unfortunate circumstance,

"My name is A, but my friends call me B " is gaycode for "I'm trans but idk if your chill so I'm checking the vibe"

That or flirting

But win win either way

[officialspec]

What do you think gay men are attracted to in men that they can’t be attracted to in women?

It can’t be anything about femininity or masculinity obviously. That’s both sexist, and cultural so can’t be what drives men-only attraction.

It can’t be anything about stated identity because someone could lie just as easily as they could tell the truth in such a statement, and it makes no sense because homosexuality and heterosexuality exists in other species with no stated identities. It’s not like other animals without gender are all pan.

Saying idk it’s the vibes or some indescribable trait men have that women can’t but “I can’t explain” is a nonanswer.

Soooooooo what is it? Or do you think any sexuality but bi/pan is just cultural performance or an identity rather than an inborn orientation?

first off i hate this ask and i think youre a freak. in any other world i wouldve blocked you for this but unfortunately for both of us i actually like this type of philosophy. dont send this shit to anyone else though

i dont think its right to compare human sexuality to the same thing in animals, to get that out of the way. im sure until a certain point it comes from the same biological impulses, but human beings have way more complicated social structures and reasons for coupling that just do not exist in other animals. our social behaviours are what make us unique in the animal kingdom and that definitely extends to gender and sexuality. so theres that

people love to tout 'gender is a social construct' around like its a criticism in and of itself, which i think betrays a misunderstanding about social constructs in general. theyre the foundations we build language on to better understand each other, and affected by a whole host of cultural and historical factors. just because theyre subjective and complicated doesnt mean they arent real. in terms of the effect they have on peoples lives they may be the most real thing that exists

for example, 'kindness' is a social construct. the definition and ways it is enacted differ greatly across personal and cultural lines. but no one would ever suggest a world where kindness doesnt exist or loses meaning, because its an essential part of the way we interact with each other (in the same way i dont really see a world where gender entirely ceases to exist, mainly just one where people have more fun with it. im not a psychic though so who knows)

similarly, sexuality in humans is another social construct. i think the driving biological forces behind it are very real, but the labels people attach to those impulses are subjective attempts to express their inner world to the people around them if that makes sense. and those same biological impulses are ALSO subject to social ideas of gender, because those ideas are established at birth and reinforced over a persons entire lifetime

to use myself as an example, im a gay trans man. ive identified as other things in the past, because i was trying to pick apart feelings i had and express them to others in an attempt to find community. my identity might change as i get older and experience new things, or it might not. i identify as gay because im not attracted to the social concept of women, and someone i would otherwise be attracted to might lose all appeal after i find out they fall under that concept (this has happened before w transfems pre and post coming out lol)

of course, the real REAL answer to this is that trying to give queer identities rigid and objective definitions is a fools errand, and also lame as fuck. someone might identify as gay and be more attracted to general masculinity than men as a social category, maybe they fool around with a couple of butch women without considering themself any less gay. two otherwise identical people might be a butch lesbian and a gay trans man without either of those identities coming into conflict. they might even be the same person at different times of the week

the labels people choose to use are communication tools, not objective signifiers. if you dont understand them, they probably arent talking to you

social constructs are everything. we as humans have the unique ability to interpret our own messy desires and impulses into words that other people can use to form an idea of someone else in their mind. its how we build connections, and of course it isnt perfect because trying to squeeze someones entire personal history and the centuries of context that defined it into a handful of syllables is going to leave some room for error. but its all we have, yknow? so we keep trying. and i think thats much more human than any imposed objective 'truth' could ever be

tldr we live in a society dipshit. get with it
