The way most autism literature describes "literal interpretation" is often not at all similar to how I experience it. Teenage me even thought I couldn't be autistic because I've always been able to learn metaphors easily.

In fact, I love wordplay of all kinds. Teenage me was fascinated to learn all the types of figurative language there are in poetry and literature.

But paperwork and questionnaires are hard, because there's so much they don't state clearly. Or they don't leave room for enough nuance.

"List all the jobs you've had, with start and end dates." What if I don't remember the exact day or month? Is the year enough?

"Have you been suffering from blurred vision?" Well, if I take off my glasses the whole world is blurred, but I'm fairly sure that's not what the intake form at the optometrist is asking.

Or the infamous (and infuriatingly stereotypical) "Would you rather go to a library or a party?" What sort of party? Where? Who's there? I work at a library. Am I currently at the library for work or pleasure? Does it have a good collection?

It's not common figures of speech that confound me. It's ambiguity, in situations that aren't supposed to be ambiguous.

Bitching in my personal diary type post BUT:

I understand it’s meant to be a positive sentiment, but “Protect the dolls” being the popular shorthand for “Protect trans women” to the point where ppl are making slogan shirts is mmmmm not my favorite. I know some trans women identify with the term but it’s by no means universal and i don’t think trans women collectively benefit from being referred to as objects that exist to look pretty. Feels gross in general and to me personally as a more masc leaning trans woman. It’s just as easy to say “Protect Trans Women”, please just do that.

my 4 week old kitten Breezy from Real Life was confirmed intersex today by the vet and she has ambiguous genitalia! she's also kind of bald and tiny

Breezy from Real Life is intersex, and she has ambiguous genitalia! ... she's also kind of bald and tiny for whatever reason. Hope she recovers from being Bald and Tiny soon!

For anyone wondering how a lot of cishet men actually view us, in the comment section of a cishet guy’s transphobic post (classic transmisogyny of “ew woman with a dick”) he talked about how hot he thinks ftm bodies (no bottom surgery) are and said something along the lines of “yeah they’ll never be men but if you just call them good boys, they’re fun to play with” some agreement with that from others or people going “well yeah because it’s straight, straight men are attracted to women”, the most disgusting was the guy that said “a woman with a mental illness…. Could be fun.” OP also then proceeded to call post op ftm bodies mutilated. The way he spoke also made it sound like he had some actual experience with trans men, this man probably manipulated some poor guy into sex, and has the gall to say trans women are predatory.

This wasn’t even a political discussion subreddit or anything like that, and not one dedicated to any sort of kink or nsfw. Just out in the wild. I usually find a lot of these types on my own because of the adult content I make, so obviously it’s expected I get literally hundreds (I’m not joking, I mean HUNDREDS) of these guys interacting with me, because yeah duh there’s a shit ton of chasers and you’re going to attract a lot of them when you do this. But finding a handful just shamelessly, publicly admitting to it, in a sfw place? The disgust hit me a different way.

Also only one person in a different comment thread pointed out how vile it was. Everyone else was like “oh just a niche fetish”, manipulating trans guys into fucking you by lying to their face and calling them women behind their back isn’t a “niche fetish”

idea that intersex people are rare is intersexism

[large text: idea that intersex people are rare is intersexism]

intersex people get routinely mutilated after birth, put on non-consensual hormonal "therapy" later in life, our medical history may be altered or hidden from us, doctors often lie straight in our faces to not tell us our diagnoses or push us to "consent" on "treatment" by fearmongering or witholding information about this treatment, the official definitions of intersexness are constantly narrowing to exclude as many variations as possible.

we aren't naturally rare, we are made rare, and then this "rareness" is used as excuse to not include us anywhere. to not address our discrimination. to not think about our experiences.

intersex people aren't rare. we're (often violently) erased and separated. and this is intersexism.

i sincerely believe that “slut” is the greatest trait u can give a male character but they need to be pathetic and cringe fail about it

Not to be a bitch but sometimes people engage with fiction in the most boring way possible, and nowhere is this clearer than in videogames. Like what you mean you hate a character just because they were kind of abrasive when speaking to the player character? "They were mean to me" and it didn't occur to you to wonder why? Like, what might their attitude toward you reveal about the world? About the social dynamics within it? About their own perspectives and backgrounds and personalities? Does it even occur you to ask? Would you only have liked them if they bowed to your presence and talked about how great you are? Like I'm sorry but you're so boring. How boring fiction would be if it cathered to you
