My OC Artemus!

My OC Artemus!

Everyone has their own personal relationship and experience with their gender. 

No two people have the same experience, or should have the same experience for that matter. Saying that your experience as a woman or a man should be defined by what you have in your pants is limiting and very simple minded. 

Being a man, being a woman, much like being religious, as a deeply personal one. No one else should be allowed to dictate or define what that means for you. Who you are as a person and how you choose to present yourself, is entirely up to you. 

It’s not for someone, especially someone who does not know you and your life, to dictate. 

So kindly, please stay out of my pants. My body, my choice :) thanks.

Don't mind me just posting sketchy oc art

i don’t know how to say this in a way that doesn’t come off kind of mean but a lot of you are genuinely uncomfortable with “attraction” as a concept and really need to step back and work on that before entering into nuanced conversations about romance/dating/sex/etc.

like. this is how we get dumb (and frankly dangerous when presented to a younger, impressionable audience) takes like “men dressing in ways women find attractive is manipulative” “real life woman is catering to the male gaze by existing” “healthy sexual attraction to real people (whether it’s celebrities or ppl you know irl) is inherently creepy and predatory” 

like. yes there’s so many ways that attraction can be harmful/unhealthy/etc and they aren’t talked about or addressed enough but in general, most attraction is healthy and is natural and the behavior that stems from that attraction is healthy and natural too. you guys have to get comfortable with the concept of attraction as a whole, especially when your ridiculous judgments most often target people that are not cis/white/het/gender conforming/etc

If you couldn't tell i was too lazy to look up a reference for his swords

May or May not color them later
