i feel like the framing of the mention of Callie’s aromanticism is kind of idk the right word for it but like just the most negative way of interpreting possible? like what is the tangible difference between “skeleton alien monster (possibly) aromatic girlfriend“ and what’s actually written? or any other combination of those words in a way that grammatically makes sense. Callie is a skeleton alien monster like that is what they are. why is “skeleton” less “human” than “monster” in your interpretation? like i dont follow at All how each descriptor is more inhuman than the prior, or how that implies their aromanticism is specifically part of the inhuman-ness of them? it’s just a (possible) detail about who they are. Like I just can’t understand the point being made here. Am I too dragongender otherkin brained to even pick up on any possible negativity relating to both being aromantic and not human (outside of the like trope sense of it I get that it’s a trope esp with robots and aliens).
Like kankri is kankri and the other point I feel like I have to go back and refresh my memory before actually digging into it but I at least understand the points Being made I just can’t with the Callie one. I’m just confused
Disclaimer in case it’s needed I Guess: I am aroace. I have openly been aroace for over a decade online (less so for irl). I haven’t gone on any dates I haven’t had any smooches or sex or any of that nature. I am the like cliche example people think of in regards to this stuff as long as they don’t learn about my Other Accounts. I am coming at this as a peer and in good faith trying to understand the experiences of others in this community. Dear readers Please don’t get on my ass about this And/or that I don’t use the typically accepted aroace flag because I don’t like the colors and simply prefer combining the aro and the ace flag into one, or flying both flags at once. Purple and green are nice colors
