    I just watched the below video and wanted to know others' thoughts on it:

      Heavy topic and I am shoked there are adults who force a child to transition. If a child would say they don't feel like a boy/girl, I'd talk to them about in detail and if it's severe go to see a therapist. But in these cases it's just...plain wrong.
      I'm out of words.
      I happen to be an older transguy and I can confirm a transition is a huge thing. I have thought about it a lot (as writing this, I have not transitioned physically yet). Forcing children to transition like this is irresponsible and it takes away validity from people who are transgender and do feel way better after transitioning (or just identifying as another gender).
      The guy said he was a heavy drinker and took drugs to endure the physical pain and the condition of his psyche - that's me not too long ago. I woke up and forsworn alcohol to finally get my shit together, but I drank to endure heavy gender dysphoria which isn't any better.
      Responsibility lies with the parents, the therapists (the whole healthcare system), every adult involved. Abuse is a very serious issue too and it affects the psyche in ways I can only speculate about but I can imagine it can twist a young mind extremely. Also, children tend to believe what they are told because they are children, still in development, and do not know any better (yet). We must not make the mistake of thinking "you were absued, that's why you're trans / that's why you are homosexual", etc. There are people who act a certain way (to protect their mental health) because they were abused and there are people who just are homosexual or transgender because of nature (put a bit dull).
      Finally, a transition is not to be taken lightly under any circumstances. One must think about the consequences for their mental, social, physical health and many other things. All that being said it's important the video raises awareness for this problem because in all honesty, it's scary and it destroys lives. 
      My thoughts about it.

    I would really hope that, if she sees you as a good mom, she isn't meaning "HAVE A CHILD RIGHT THIS MOMENT!!!"

    Since I'm someone who is really interested in Eastern and New Age spirituality, this resonates with me. It describes my relationships with other versions of me on other timelines with whom I'm energetically in contact and can "channel" when I desire.

    The way I see it, never mind what others think. People will be people. If you do want to educate someone, though, I would say that sexual/romantic orientations can vary widely. If there exist people who have heteroromantic, homoromantic, biromantic tendencies etc, you can tell them it only makes sense for some people to have aromantic tendencies.

    @treepod I can completely relate to this (though I do not have as many examples as you do). Unlike what you mentioned, I do not plan to have a QPR in the future. I plan to remain completely single. My example may have made it a bit more "explosive" to bear than were I planning to have a QPR. Anyway, here's my example: My dad had shown me the movie trilogy of Back to the Future in late June or early July 2019 -- somewhere around that period. There was a character in there named Emmet "Doc" Brown. Emmet is a mad scientist who focuses on his crazy invention ideas. I envisioned him as an ace/aro because he had not had any romantic/sexual relationship pushes in the trilogy (he even reminded me of a teacher/counselor at my university who looked like Doc AND was good at math AND whom I suspect may be ace/aro! -- I greatly respect this counselor/teacher.). During Back to the Future III, it was revealed that Doc had fallen into love and, at the end, had children with the woman with whom he'd fallen into love. I was a little disappointed about this, realizing he would never live up to my "ideal" of what he should be. I still like Doc just as much as before, though, and I have accepted this revelation. After all, it's not wise to be too attached to one's expectations of what another should be. That will be detrimental to one upon realizing that person cannot and will not live up to those expectations.

    It's 11:11! Divine synchronicity!

    Update: I survived the procedure where I had a 5 - 10% chance of death.

      Hell Yeah!!!

    I have tissue on my heart and am about to get a stint. Does that count?

    This video comes to mind for this thread. It's not so much 'aromantic' as it is 'anti romantic', in my opinion. It resonates with the personality of X Yu, an entity I channel. It's my internal reaction for if anyone directs romance my way.

    I am pondering sharing my insights on the Mandela Effect with YouTube channel ApexTV.

  11. The Angel of Eternity
    That's actually my experience with romance, too. When I'm involved somehow, it definitely makes me angry. I am definitely averse to romance but my attitude toward romance in media alters. When it comes to romantic relationships between spiritual people, I can become a little favorable. I get a little repulsed when romance becomes too "flashy" (as being flashy is literally an anti-force to one of the aspects of myself) or when characters get partners when I thought they were ace/aro (Back to the Future III where Emmett "Doc" Brown falls into love, marries and has kids).

    Speak your truth with the word SHIVAI -- I AM SHIVAI

    I was just curious.
  14. The Angel of Eternity
    @Coyote I just took the survey and I have a few questions. 1) Does 'mehmantic' mean you're neutral to romance or that you're in between feeling and not feeling romantic attraction? Could it mean something else, even? 2) Do you know if a post has already been made about this on AVEN? That way I can make a post about it if necessary.

    August 1 is the planned date of a surgery I'm supposed to undergo for a thinned artery. We think the chances of me surviving are about 90 - 95%. I fear death not so I'm fearing not. Goodbye for now.

      I hope you survive :/

    I originally thought Emmett "Doc" Brown from Back to the Future was on the aro/ace spectrum but I was disappointed upon Back to the Future 3 where Doc fell into love with a woman and had children. This rules out him being aro (because he said he loved this woman) and it most likely rules out him being ace. I thought that was quite unfortunate. I still like him, though.
  17. The Angel of Eternity
    I'd visit somewhere in the future, say, the year 2100. I would just love to see what people and society would be like.
  18. The Angel of Eternity
    Well, I'm already married! (Not to another person, though) Edit: From another perspective, one could say I'm in the process of Holy Matrimony.

    I'm no medical professional so I couldn't give you advice there but I developed a theory a couple years ago that any "hallucinations" could be the brain detecting a person (or other entity) in another timeline or dimension. I've heard that the veil of illusion is thinning and that people are beginning to see things they wouldn't see otherwise. Let me ask you these: 1) Do you think these figures appear at random times? 2) Upon trying to look directly at the figures with your physical eyes, do they seem to disappear?

    @Alyssia Hello! I'm glad you asked this question because I have my own experiences regarding this. Now, I'm not the type to experience crushes or squishes or the like. What I am about to reveal is, I think, even less traditionally known than a squish. I have coined the term "expansion" to describe this feeling I've had for certain people. An expansion describes the desire to be spiritually or mentally intimate with another. My preferred way to be spiritually or mentally intimate is by sharing my own personal truths or "inner world" that would not normally be shared with others. In September 2018 I came into personal contact with a transgender-identifying character on AVEN. For the sake of their anonymity I shall not reveal their name. They claimed to be "a marriage in one body". This means they claimed to be two souls in one body, a man in a woman's body. They told me of personal spiritual experiences they'd had in 1998 (the year my physical body was born). I'm not currently in contact with them but I've been listening to this song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4ukTsC0oTw) and it gives me deeply fond memories of them and their near-death experiences they shared with me. It makes me a bit melancholy, really. There's someone else on AVEN with whom I'm still in contact. We have had similar spiritual experiences and beliefs. We both have deeply personal spiritual beliefs, truths and "stories" we share with each other that I or they (I don't think) don't share normally with others. We've become really good internet friends based on these things. I've experienced expansions on others but it would take too long to go into detail about every one. Godspeed

    @orel0050 What you have mentioned seems to be akin to a QPR. Welcome to Arocalypse, by the way. Have an infinite amount of !
  22. The Angel of Eternity
    BURN IN HELL!
  23. The Angel of Eternity
    FUCK no! And I wouldn't want to, either! Listen, if anyone tried to ask me out, this song explains it all. Or this song (especially this song!).

    Crush: The desire to do romantic (and possibly sexual) things with an individual Squish: The desire for other than a friendship but other than a romantic relationship; the aromantic version of a crush *Smash: The desire to act physically and/or verbally violent at an extreme to an individual out of ruthless aggression, anger and/or hatred *Expansion: The desire to direct, to an extreme, compassion, love, service and kindness to an individual; the desire to act in a godly way towards someone; opposite of a smash (The terms with an asterisk are terms coined by me) So, what do you think? Please let me know in the comments section below.

    @rain of arrows Well, consider this a lesson learnt. What I'd do is that next time someone asks you to go to the movies with them, be clear that you're not romantically interested in them and that there will be no romantic undertone with the encounter.
