He HEADBUTTED HIS ASS

Reasons why I need the A in LGBTIAQ to stand for Asexual, not Ally

Because my mother told me that all I needed to do was get drunk and lie back and let my husband have his fun. Because if I was drunk, I’d be more relaxed and it’d be over sooner

Because my sister told me that I was trapping my husband in an abusive marriage, and that one day he was going to leave me

Because both of them looked at me in disgust

Because my asexuality is considered to be as great a crime against my husband as a woman who has affairs and cheats on her husband

Because my cousin didn’t even try to understand, and just kept asking ‘but what about in five years? how will you feel then?’

Because I was so afraid of my body and so afraid of sex that I didn’t seek medical help for a legitimate question for over a year for fear of being labelled a deviant or something broken

Because I still ask myself at least once every day if my husband wouldn’t be better off without me

Because I still ask myself at least once every day if I’m broken

Because I still tell myself at least once every day that I’m pathetic and useless and an abnormality

Because I love my husband with every fiber of my being, but everywhere I turn I’m told I really don’t, because love = sex

I need A to stand for Asexual because nobody ever talked to me about asexuality even when I was an outpatient at the women’s hospital for 18 months, and everyone told me desire would come in time

I need A to stand for Asexual because we are literally invisible, and so unimportant that people assume we don’t even need representation, because everyone assumes our lives must be bland and unimportant and lacking in challenges or bigotry

For every asexual that wants a relationship, for every asexual that does not want a relationship, for every asexual who has not yet come to terms with their identity, for every asexual who was told we were abnormalities, for every asexual who was told we just weren’t doing sex right, that we needed a good fucking, that we needed to be drunk, that we needed to relax, that we needed to be raped

We need representation, and we need visibility

That is why the A needs to stand for Asexual, and never for Ally

What could've been.

Avengers Endgame is (nearly) out so reblog this post to let your followers know that you will NOT be posting from footage of the movie (only from officially released clips) AND that you will be tagging spoilers for the first few weeks

I just saw a post about the Calm Harm app that said there's also a very similar app called Clear Fear! I didn't want to reblog that post because some of the reblogs were very guilt trippy, so here's my own post about it:

Clear Fear is an app that helps you with anxiety attacks in much the same way Calm Harm helps with self harm. You can customise your colours, you can add a passcode to it so that other people can't open the "self-monitoring" tab with your information, and you can customise your gender. This last bit is only for research purposes but I thought it was nice :)

When you first open the app, it asks you to make your own personal list of activities that you know help you reduce anxiety. You can also add contact numbers of people you know you can talk to when you're having an attack. You can fill these in later, tho!

Once inside the app, you can go back to these lists in the tab "safety net":

The orange circle takes you to a hotline number page. The other two circles take you to the activities and people that you listed earlier. If you write down these lists when you're feeling good, it'll help you remember all the things that can help and that you may not be able to list while you're having an attack!

There are many more options depending on your individual needs — an animal gif section, a joke section, a section with ideas to express yourself, a list of positive thoughts and inspirational quotes, breathing activities, information on the different types of anxiety, and much more!

As an end note, please don't add guilt-tripping comments to this post. No one must reblog this — only those who feel comfortable doing so!

"Yes. The Qur’an celebrates diversity. It even protects diversity of religion, by instructing Muslims to protect other religious groups, such as Jews, living under Muslim rule. The Qur’an says that variety in human appearance, culture, language and even religion were created by God’s divine wisdom.

We know that homosexuality exists, among human beings with free will. It also exists among animals—and the Qur’an says animals do not have free will, they are only obedient to God. In the Qur’an, Surat al-Rum (Qur’an 30:22) says God has created human beings with different alwan, a word that can mean both “colors” and “tastes.” Human beings certainly have different tastes in many things—including sexuality. It seems clear that sexual diversity must also be a type of human diversity that was created by God’s divine wisdom."

!!!!!!!!!!
