Closeups Of That Last Drawing.....snails With Legs And Their Rhino Beetle

What does it mean that this is a collab multiverse between you and gayfish? How is it a collab?

It’s made up of both of your nextgens! Rem for example is mine, but Hiragana (i hope i spelt that right) and Somba also appear within the mulitverse and belong to @help-im-a-gay-fish

I’m a cis-gender man which basically means that, when I was born, the doctor went “It’s a boy!” and when I was old enough to understand I agreed with him.

The thing is, I don’t know why I feel like a man.  I was teased and bullied for it a lot when I was little.  I’ve never had stereotypically American male interests.  I never cared about sports or cars or guns.  I was more interested in music and cooking and the arts.  I’ve always been emotionally in tune and sensitive, even when I did my best to suppress my emotions to survive a childhood of abuse from other children.

It’s not physical either.  I don’t feel like a man because I have a penis or a beard.  If you put my brain in a robot body or any other body, my essence would still feel male (I assume).  I literally can’t imagine what being any other gender would feel like, since I feel so acutely male.

I think that’s why the concept of being transgender always made sense to me.  I’m a man.  I don’t have any bloody clue why I feel like a man, but I don’t feel that it’s tied to my body or my interests or the way that I’ve been treated.  I feel like a man because of something beyond that.  Something ephemeral.  So, why couldn’t others feel the same?  Why couldn’t a person who’s been misidentified as a girl feel like a boy for the exact same nebulous reasons that I do?

And, since gender really doesn’t make any sense to me anyway, why couldn’t there also be people who feel as if they don’t have one?  Or who flow across genders like a ship on a map?

Are there people out there whose sense of their own gender is inseparable from their physical form?  If you put those people into robot bodies or, simply, other physically different bodies, would their gender identity also swap?  If so, why?  Are they actually more lost in their gender identity than I am and they need to hone in on the physical in order to anchor themselves?

Why do people feel like they are the gender that they are?

Does Rem need sleep as a rest, or does he need it to restore magic?

If he needs sleep as a rest, does he have insomnia? (I saw that some people wrote that Ccino sometimes suffers from insomnia, could it be the same for Rem?)

Rem does need sleep, mainly just for rest, but he can’t sleep past 3 am though he doesn’t exactly know why (he blames Nightmare for it). It’s possible he has a form of insomna, but if so it’s never been diagonised.

Sleep doesn’t really ‘restore’ his magic so to speak, instead it lowers how much his body has been corrputed by using magic. When he chooses to use magic (usually only when he gets angry enough - it’s not worth the risk otherwise) he starts to become more corrputed like how Nightmare did when he ate the apples, but unlike Nightmare, he can ‘uncorrupt’ his body through sleep. The only magic this doesn’t apply to is his ability to control others sleep, as he’s used this for so long he’s learnt how to do it without being corrputed.

Sleep also helps reduce the level of corruption in his ‘soul’ but much less so then in his body. If he becomes to corrputed at anyone point he forms a new tentacle, and the amount of tentacles show how corrupted he is. Once a tentacle is formed, it willnot and cannot disappear. It is possible for him to become compeltly corrupted like Nightmare, but this is very unlikely to happen due to how little he uses his magic.

Sorry if this isn’t very well explained, im happy to clarify anything if you need me to!

Note: This isn’t an insult/sassy come back to people to asking valid questions/statements (well maybe a bit sassy lol), none of it’s meant to offend people that are calmly trying to educate themselves to lgbtq+. Questions are always welcome!

quick question: hat or no hat?

Really happy to see this at my local library

I hate that people keep insisting that Kristen Stewart is a lesbian even though she's flat out said she's bisexual, that she sees sexuality as grey and fluid, that she's not strictly homosexual or heterosexual, and that she would definitely date a guy again; like the list goes on. I think it's the fact that she's also so visibly gnc and people still can't concieve that bisexuality isn't just gay lite? Like as much as she may "look" like a lesbian, she's a gnc bi woman and I think it's cool that there's that kind of rep bc a lot of the bi women the media puts in the spot light are mostly high fem. That doesn't mean that rep is meaningless but I can count on one hand the amount of andro/masc leaning bi women that are in the public eye.

I also know the other reason why a lot of people keep labeling her as a lesbian is because she's visibly only been dating women recently, but you don't have to switch the gender of your s/o every other month to prove you're still bi like. That's elementary basics of bisexuality. Especially if said person in question, again, has stated several times that they're not a lesbian or straight... 🤔
