A redraw of THISÂ and somewhat spiritual successor to THIS. I always want to draw Sherlock with make-up these days, so get used to it. And Iâm all about vague science fiction/fantasy vibes.

So, would you like to see Sherlock and John in Regency dress or on the bridge of the Enterprise?
Would you like to see an illustration of a favorite fic or a cover for one of your own?
Would you like to see paper dolls of your favorite character or actor?

If you donât believe being asexual has any negative affect on people I was told by a psychiatrist that none of my relationships count because we didnât have sex, and
I canât say Iâm gay since I donât want to have sex with girls.
and I was taken off my antidepressants because they may be lowering the libido I never had in the first place (plus various other reasons, but still immediately, cold turkey, which should NEVER happen unless theyâre switching you to something else)
But aphobia doesnât exist and asexuals are privileged, right?
Sorry to add to this but I wanted to say since Iâve had bad experiences with mental health professionals and biphobia, I usually get asked âbut are you sure you are sexually attracted to both sexes, are you sure itâs not just an emotional attraction?!â Like my dude donât you think I can tell the difference between wanting to date someone and wanting to be friends? Also, due to be gray ace 90% of the time I am not even attracted to anyone but like sure, make me feel guilty that I canât âproveâ my bisexuality.
Sorry too but to add on, being aro isnât much different. I told my therapist and she was immediately concerned that my meds were repressing âall my emotionsâ and wanted to take me off them. My insurance ran out and I went off them bc of no money before that happened. She also suggested dating someone anyway to âfixâ the âissueâ and expressed concern that my emotions (romantic feelings) werenât present because âIâm suspicious and untrusting of everyone and donât want to try hard enough.â
Having your orientation medicalized and invalidated is bad enough, but its fucking dangerous to have your meds taken away because youâre not performing relationships the way some doctor thinks youâre required to.
Aaaand this is why we need the bi/pan/ace/aro alliance.
this is why we need to recognize more queer experiences and identities than gay and lesbian, through increased awareness, information and representation.
