Y'all the person I QRT'd from didn't create the character. The artists shouldn't be harassed either, they didn't necessarily have any control over the name. @Marvel or something π
People are frequently confused to why I'm nonbinary even though I'm so "hyperfeminine." In honor of #PRIDE , lemme clear some things up.
I've never felt a strong attachment to the label of Woman, or the concept of being gendered at all - (1/?)
Before my nonbinary revelation, I only went along with it out of convenience, and I still do the same in circles that don't recognize Nonbinary as a thing you can be.
"But gender roles aren't that rigid anymore! You can be a woman and still do XX!" some people say - (2/?)
- but that's not the issue here. There are those who work hard to expand what the social construct of "woman" looks like and encompasses. I applaud their efforts and will always stand with them in solidarity, but it has nothing to do with how I just don't want to be a woman (3/?)
if any white vegan comes for me for making the occasional exception again i'm revoking their tofu eating privileges
anyway normalize the idea that vegans and vegetarians can take breaks whenever they want for whatever they want because making it all or nothing just intimidates other people from joining the lifestyle
the food I cook for myself is 100% vegan and it can be really fun, honestly
vegan recipes make you get creative with ingredients and there's always this sense of achievement when you successfully replicate something non-vegan. I never even feel any cravings for meat anymore.
calm down I'm an environmental vegan, not a moral vegan. that means I refrain from animal products as much as possible bc of those industries' devastating effects on the ecosystem
holding veganism over people's heads as a moral necessity is classist - 1/?
- not everyone has access to the massive supply of fresh fruits and vegetables that's necessary for a vegan diet. Some people live in food deserts. Some people live in poverty. That's why I never push my personal life choices onto others.
"Try to refrain from animal products as much as possible" is a lot easier to promote and maintain than "YOU CAN'T EAT OR USE ANYTHING FROM AN ANIMAL, EVER." Veganism doesn't have to come with guilt. It just has to come with some level of consciousness about the animal industries.
