James likes to be very affectionate to his partners, so he will hold them and kiss on them in public. He is NOT scared of PDA.
When he dated Lily, she wasn’t really bothered by it, but she found it annoying in an affectionate way. Like he would kiss on her and she would try to push his face away while rolling her eyes and laughing.
Regulus is a completely different story.
Considering his family consisted of people who didn’t like to touch one another and anytime they did it was for violence, Regulus doesn’t like people touching him, but he’s also EXTREMELY touched starved (let me just project onto him real quick).
When James is affectionate with him, Regulus is awkward about it and kind of moves away. James takes this as a hint that Regulus doesn’t like it, and because James is not an asshole and respects people’s boundaries, he stops touching him. In reality, Regulus just didn’t know what to do and isn’t used to it, but he slightly enjoyed the affection. Now, since James refuses to touch him and Regulus knows that that’s how he shows his love, Regulus thinks that James doesn’t love him anymore and is now spiraling down the rabbit hole of “what did I do wrong? Why does everyone always leave me? Why am I never good enough?” Also, Regulus doesn’t know how to express his feelings to James about this, leading to a LOT of miscommunications.
BUT this can all be fixed when Regulus finally loses it and breaks down because he believes James doesn’t love him anymore. James expresses how he thought Regulus didn’t want him to touch him and Regulus says it’s the opposite, and now James CANNOT stop touching Regulus in some sort of way. Sirius hates it because that’s his little baby brother, damn it!
This is graphic but VERY important. I’m MF TIED of pro lifers who cannot see further than the end of their nose

hey anon. Yes. Here he is
i just read a washington post article on romcoms aging poorly due to the pushiness (and oft-stalkery conduct) of the male characters therein, and it got me thinking about pride and prejudice, and specifically darcy saying, “one word from you will silence me on this subject forever.”
because, like, that’s the seldom-portrayed romantic dream in the patriarchal hellscape that is our world, isn’t it?
a dude being willing to say, “i understand if you don’t feel the same way about me, and i’ll leave you alone forever about this if my attention is unwanted.”
so simple, yet so wonderful in its basic human decency
can you talk about being intersex and cis? how do you know if you're cis or trans when you're intersex? i promise this isn't meant to be rude i'm just a little confused as to how gender works when you're intersex. thank you so much. <3
I’m cis because I’m afab and still identify as a woman. If I was afab and identified any other way, I’d be trans. I’m intersex because my body itself has a mixed bag of secondary sex characteristics and hormones.
The label “intersex” itself isn’t a gender identity as much as it’s a way for people with mixed or ambiguous sex characteristics to define that experience. There are cis men and women who are intersex, trans people of every kind as well. I’m sure there are intersex people who just identify as intersex entirely but most intersex people I’ve met still identify as male, female, or nonbinary. Because your body doesn’t determine your gender identity.
Also, the opposite of intersex is perisex. You can be cis or trans, while being intersex or perisex. If you’re not intersex, you are perisex.

pulling stunts that strengthen the public’s perception of gay people as satanic perverts is a shitty thing to do. the end
