Consensual sexual relationships require the loosening of the boundaries of one’s physical and psychic space- it involves allowing another person to not only become close to you physically, but allowing [them] to know more about you. Sexual violence then suggests the violation of these boundaries on not only the physical but the spiritual and psychic level as well. In addition, sexual violence is ultimately structured around power relations- it entails establishing the power to control someone’s life. Similarly, “knowledge” about someone also gives one power of over that person. Withholding knowledge, then, is an act of resistance against those who desire to know you in order to better control you.

Portrait/Logo

We are a friendly queer couple in our twenties. One of us is a cisgender woman named Tashia and the other is a trans* guy named Riley. We blog about life, love, and whatever we find that could be useful or interesting to human rights activists of all kinds.

We specifically created this safe space for folks in need of guidance/advice regarding:

★ relationships/dating
★ coming out
★ dealing w/dysphoria
★ transitioning
★ safe sex/sex education
★ and much more

We especially hope to provide help to those who identify as trans* and/or queer or questioning.

  • Question via riley-ferretboy-konor
    Anonymous asked: So I guess we aren't talking. Can you at least have the decency to tell me you're not gonna talk to me? I've made so many attempts to befriend you non-anonymously and none of them have panned out. I'm involuntarily friendless and have been for at least a year or more. Please just say I'm unwanted. The not knowing is eating away at me.
