Red Saying That Those People Not Wanting To See Prospero In A Romantic Setting Was Infantilizing Irked Me Can You Tell? - Tumblr Posts
What I hate is when aros are like “wow aromantic character who is the most romance repulsed to have ever repulsed is being shipped cause ‘spectrum’ that kinda sucks :/“ and people act like they’ve just freaked out at the person doing the shipping. Its stupid fandom nonsense you *can* ship whoever you want no ones gonna cancel you over it, doesn’t mean they have to like it! Also bestie boo bear its really telling that you feel the need to put one of what 5-10 aromantic characters of all time in a relationship “because spectrum!!” No be so fr its because you wanted them in a relationship this isnt about what aromantic people can or cant do this is about what you want them to do this is your way to write around it and thats fine its fiction you do you but dont be surprised when aros are like “oh ew” and if your an aro about to say “but im aro and I do this” good for you! You’re not who I’m talking about. /lh /ily /p and don’t even get me started on people who act like not wanting a character to be in a relationship is infantilizing thanks for telling me you infantilize me and all other relationship adverse people! Definitely came across exactly as you intended.
I have a lot of feelings about this if you can’t tell :P
