Moth Talks - Tumblr Posts

A while back I made a twitter post about how self shipping and OC/canon is okay, and engaging in your interests is valid. However I noticed more acceptance toward women/feminine people who self ship, and a lot of disdain toward men or masculine people doing the same thing… I even got comments saying “yeah well if a guy does it, it’s cringe.” 

(This language isn’t meant to exclude nonbinary people by the way, I’m nonbinary and masc-leaning. But there is an obvious difference in response toward men & masculine nonbinary folk, vs women & feminine nonbinary folk when it comes to fandom/things like this.)

Obviously, that’s BS. I just wanna say to all men and masculine folks who selfship or like oc/canon: You’re not “cringey” or “weird” for selfshipping as a man or masc person. Your gender doesn’t automatically make you a creep, it doesn’t make you weird, and it doesn’t make you “cringey.” This especially goes for mlm or nblm. 

Expressing yourself in positive ways is good and you deserve to enjoy yourself. As long as you’re not hurting anyone, nobody else can tell you what to do. Nobody else gets to dictate your self-expression.

I saw @an-artist-place-for-extra-art post and remembered them, this is Harley :D

Sup y'all

Moth Fact: Moths are sometimes pollinators! In fact Yucca plants have their own moth that they rely on to pollinate. These moths have “tentacles” to gather pollen with; these tentacles replace the long tongue most moths/butterflies have. Yucca moths vary on the exact species on yucca plant as well. These beautiful white moths tend to be very small with wingspans never going past 33 mm.
