Qpp - Tumblr Posts
A cute idea instead of using the term Marshmallow or zucchini for your queer platonic partner/relationship how about calling them squish-mate. A bit on the Nose considering one can have a squish on someone(s) if they want a qpr/qpp. I just found it cute
so...yesterday i saw a post saying that if you're in a qpr, you can't kiss or have sex. i just wanted to tell you something. unlike romantic relationships, qprs and qpps do not have rules, each one decides what they should and should not do in the relationship. so if you're in a qpr and wanna kiss or have sex with your partner, do it, as long as you both agree.
I think in honor of pride month and also in general forever we should stop trying fit queer people into the identities we think they should call themselves.
And I know no one is going to see this because no one ever does but I'm going to talk about it anyway because this is important.
Bisexual doesn't mean you don't date trans people, it doesn't mean you like men and women, it doesn't mean you can't have a preference. Someone can identify as polysexual or bisexual or omnisexual and have no preference and you don't get to say that that means they're pansexual. Because no, if they don't identify as pansexual then they're not pansexual.
Transmasc doesn't mean you use he/him pronouns. It doesn't mean you identify as a man. Transfem doesn't mean you use she/her pronouns. It doesn't mean you identify as a woman. You can be nonbinary or genderqueer or agender or any gender that isn't binary and not use they/them pronouns. You can use any of those labels and still identify as a man or a woman. You can use different pronouns than is typically used for your birth sex and not consider yourself transgender. People can be gender non conforming and not he trans. People can be trans and not gender non conforming.
A trans man can be fem. A trans woman can be masc. Nonbinary people don't owe you androgyny. Intersex people don't owe you androgyny. Intersex people are people, they deserve way more attention than a way to one up transphobes. Intersex people face discrimination and body altering surgeries without their consent and then are only ever talked about to say "some cis women have penises" or "some people have an extra x chromosome" and then we never talk about the struggle they face as part of the queer community.
Asexuality and aromanticism is a spectrum. Some aces like sex, some aces are repulsed, some aces only experience sexual attraction to one person or once in their life, some aces need a deep emotional bond, some aces their attraction changes. Some aros change identities. Some aros are repulsed by romance unless it's a fictional character. Some aros have romantic feelings until they get to know someone. Some aros crave a romantic relationship but never have romantic feelings. You don't get to say someone isn't asexual or aromantic enough.
Asexuality and aromanticism is having a unique relationship with romance or sexual feelings and impulses. Someone who is transgender has a unique experience with gender. You don't get to decide that they don't have a unique experience. But guess what? You don't get to decide if they do either. Someone can have a unique experience and still not identify as asexual aromantic or transgender. You can cross dress and still fully feel like a man. You can use he/him pronouns as a cis women. You can have trauma around sex and not identify as asexual. You can never have a romantic relationship and not identify as aromantic.
You can have "contradicting" labels. I don't know as many of these because I don't personally identify as any but please fell welcome to add in reblogs. There are trans men lesbians and gay women. There are sex loving asexuals. I know there are others I just genuinely am not educated enough.
YOU DONT GET TO CHOOSE SOMEONES LABELS
ANYONE CAN EITHER IDENTIFY OR NOT IDENTIFY AS QUEER
Please feel welcome to add anything in reblogs. I'm sure there's things I've missed. I haven't talked about neopronouns I haven't talked enough about "contradicting" labels. I haven't talked about queer platonic relationships or kink or polyamory or enough about intersex people or pronouns vs gender. There's so much important things but at the end of the day it's just so important to not choose other people's labels.
i love qprs!
Queerplatonic Polyamory is great 💗
Queerplatonic LDRs are great 💗
Queerplatonic Throuples are great 💗
Queerplatonic ships are great 💗
Queerplatonic relationships are great 💗
me when i rmmember my partners. me when i remmebr. every day i have them is a day i can live through
Oh your ship broke up? That’s sad. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have been in a queer-platonic partnership for 136 years though so I’m good. Y’all take it easy.
nonverbal qpp × deaf qpp talking in sign language all the time <3

EXCUSE ME!! BUT the way that "friendship" or "romance" doesn't do ANY amount of justice in Arthur and Merlin's relationship!!! because those two have something that transcends this moral plane!! istg!!!! THEY ARE QPPs FIRST AND EVERYTHING ELSE SECOND!!!!!
; this a million times oml. To add more: neopronouns are not effecting the trans community, neopronouns are not exclusive to certain people, neopronouns are not silly or cringe or invalid and they're not ( most the time ) js for online use, they're peoples pronouns. And qpr are different to everyone !! They can include sex but they don't have to, but stop calling it " basically friends w benefits ", qpp's can kiss or never even try, qpp's can get get platonically married if they want, qpr's can be polyamory or exclusive, and they can be sexual without being romantic and it is not mf abusive or whatever dumb shit ppl are spreading, they can also be romantic and not sexual and not be sad or a " failing ship ", etc. It's not your relationship and it's not your definition of platonic, so js leave ppl alone. Oh and for the love of the stars DO NOT call it " js a really close friendship " or " friendship+ basically " and / or describe it as lesser than romantic / sexual relationships. Its not less or more than anything, it's a queer platonic relationship. It's it's own category THANK YOU.

i love you polyamory i love you open relationships i love you situationships i love you queer platonic relationships i love you friends with benefits i love you uncommon demonstrations of love i love you complexity of the human emotion and experience
can someone make a QPR dating app please. please i'm begging you. it isn't enough to just have a "find a friend" app because every time i try one the person i'm talking to ends up either catching feelings or being REALLY weird about it when they find out i'm aro.
"but you'll die alone!" and you will not live to see it; you will die by my sword before death takes me.
Ugh. I kinda really want a gf/bf/qpp or *someone*.
I’ve never wanted one before, not really. I have a handful of close friends that I text/talk to nearly every day…and I love them all to death… and none of them are in relationships rn either so it’s not even like I’m jealous or feeling pressured…
I just…my friends all have other friends (and I know that’s not really fair ‘cause so do I) but I want someone just for *me*, y’know? That cares about me as much as I care about my friends.
And idk if it’s because of anxiety or because I’m aroace but…I’m real sick of having to walk on eggshells around most of my friends because I don’t want them to think I’m too clingy/being non-platonic with them…I don’t want to make them uncomfortable… But also I just want to hug them and hold their hands and cuddle:(
Anyway.
Sigh.
It shouldn’t be as hard as it is to find someone but it is ‘cause I’m me and society is society.
advertising a qpr blog i mod because its fucking awesome @a-special-sort-of-soulmate
It’s just so incredible to be like hey do you want to mutually be each others number one best friend for the rest of forever and they say yes 🥺
Say it with me, folks,
Significant others don’t have to be romantic
Relationships don’t have to be romantic
Love doesn’t have to be romantic
yeah, sex is cool and all, but have you ever spun around in a circle while holding hands because you don't know how to dance?
@forest-of-chaos
"blorbo" but you use it for your partner(s)
How could this happen to meeeeeeeee I made a mistakeeeeeeeeee
