Happy Discount Chocolate Eve!

I always forget that the week after Valentine's is Aromantic Awareness Week. Last year I was scrambling to finish a little drawing for it mid-week, but this time I realized earlier so hopefully I can throw something together with a little more effort for it hahah.

I feel like that is the most fitting time for an awareness week, pff. and oo, thanks for the reminder as well - i love drawing characters that are canon arospec or that i just hc as such for aro week. >:D last year my partner at the time did it for warrior cats characters and it was very cringily nostalgic ^"^

Hello, I'm Declan. I'm a gay trans man and has been on testosterone for 2 months and a half. My story is a little bit of a long one, so i'll keep it somewhat brief. I have four lesbian parents. So all my life I have always been living in an exceptionally accepting household. For as long as I can remember I saw myself differently than how I was labeled as by others. When I was asked if I was a girl and what my name is by kids I would always avoid the question and refused to answer. Everyday I would be playing football and basketball with "that" group of boys in elementary school. I had a bully too in that group but I would pester/bully him back rather than go running to my parents. A funny event that I recall was when I flirted with a girl when I was only 6 at a waterpark, and after kept saying she was the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Which gave my parents a slight suspicion of if I was going to possibly be LGBTQ+ someday. Of course they didn't want to just assume that nor wanted to push me into it, so they let me grow. Then in middle school I made some friends who were LGBTQ+ and they helped me learn more about the community. And I became nonbinary, which then led me to become agender soon later. I was also pan during that period too. I joined GSA in my school and everything seemed to be going good. Though a few instances were a little rough on me. I was once grabbed and dragged across the floor by a person due to ignoring them for calling me dumb little names about me being who I was. And my body dysphoria was starting to become a big issue for me. I was in a toxic relationship with a person that escalated into threats of harm to me and others. I would hear stories about the mistreatment and abuse of people like me and grew worried that I too could get harmed like they did. And that fear still hasn't gone away. Soon I got into high school and figured out more about myself. I came out as a trans man and grew to feel more of an attraction to male presenting people. However, I decided that I wouldn't get into any relationships romantically for a good long while. Who knows, maybe not ever. Now as a near senior I feel like I'm who I want to be. And I'm happy I figured it all out. Well, close to at least.

Happy ASAW everyone! we get Two weeks in a row of aromanticism here. [emoji=green gem size=1]

hello lgbtq+ flight rising gamers. currently i'm trapped in some sort of game that i like to call "Am I A Lesbian Or Am I Bisexual". labels don't matter and i have all the time in the world to figure it out but it's bothering me so much. i guess right now i'm Bisexual Until Otherwise Noted and that's all i have to be.

unrelated but i have been on T for almost 2 months which is so poggers. it was something i never thought i'd be able to do, or even really survive long enough to get there so it's a big milestone. no changes yet (i'm on gel and it takes forever) but just being on it makes me feel happier and more and more like myself every day.

back to bisexual. no longer pomosexual/unlabelled. also im cis female ive figured out im not xenogender
