#BooksAgainstNormativity

Hey,
I'd like to start a collection of books, that are great eye-openers against normative concepts.

I have read 2 books so far, that I think fit:

#Ace by #AngelaChen: Maybe the standard work on asexuality and a great book to understand and question allo-normativity (allo(sexual) being the opposite of ace/asexual)

#Platonic by #MarisaGFranco: An homage to platonic partnerships and against romantic normativity or also allo normativity (allo(romantic) being the opposite of aromantic here)

I'm next looking for a book on #RelationshipAnarchy to add to the list. Is there like a go-to book or must read? Please let me know.

Also do you know of any other books, that fit into the collection? It can be about/against any kind of normativity, not just related to gender, relationships and identity.

I had a really great #AroAce community evening today.

I learned about #RelationshipAnarchy and the #Smörgasbord and we discussed why people in amatonormative couple relationships, who turn from two "I"s into a "we" find it so hard to use "I-messages" in conflicts, but have no trouble using "you-accusations".

This pride month I want to learn more about different relationship types and possibilities and want to find a definition of "friendship" for myself.

Feel free to give me input.

Jeg vil dele her, hvad jeg laver, og til at blive inspireret af jeres former for aktivisme

my wager was that a philosophical enquiry into liveable anarchy and how that can be put into practice through #relationshipanarchy would be welcome at #38c3 - and oh, i felt it found its place!

i am thankful to each person who offered their thoughts. thankful for all the lovely conversations we had around the subject.

the #relationshipgeeks assembly was a cozy and safe home for all these connections and the orga team has been phenomenal.

stay safe, folx!

I've published a zine on Relationship Anarchy, subtitled "Dreaming in the Belly of the Whale": https://catileptic.tech/posts/relationship-anarchy/

I'm vibrating from head to toe with excitement that I finally put my thoughts into words, all in one place, and I can offer them to others.

This zine is the result of countless excellent talks with lovely folx. It's also the result of reading Victor Vilisov and Slavoj Žižek, as well as many other texts that expanded my mind and nuanced my thinking.

Hi #38c3 !

We are #RelationshipGeeks, an initiative to create a community of beings, interested in ethical relationships free from societal norms.

Since yesterday our assembly was green lit, I wanted to invite you to drop by and hang out with us at congress.

We've prepared an interesting program* of workshops and conversations that I'll introduce in future posts under the above hashtag.

Stay tuned ;)

Relationship Anarchy is a pretty cool idea

new instance new me so here’s an #introduction

if you gotta call me something call me “nova” (no caps)
they/them pronouns = (check out here https://en.pronouns.page/@jellynova for more deets)

i am an #AuDHD #queer in my 20’s, living in small town #BritishColumbia (#canada). i’m #polyamorous and probably most aligned with #RelationshipAnarchy.

i am an accountant, but the kind that wants to save the world, not benefit corporations. i like to work on sustainability and with (primarily queer) non-profits.

you can expect me to post about queer things (especially on #TransTuesday), whatever hyperfixation has me at any moment, and other general life commentary. i sometimes post lewd on main (with a cw).

i jump around with my hyperfixations a lot but i really like cozy games like #AnimalCrossing and #StardewValley and #Palia and also #jrpgs and #ttrpgs. i also sometimes do various forms of art badly but probably don’t post them. i like writing poetry and painting scenery mostly recently.

i’d love to make some new mutuals, friends, enemies (positive), and other relationships with cool folk

Always been bisexual, but recently refer to myself more as pansexual, as this is how I feel. I have several accounts on the #fediverse, but this one is mostly about queer topics.
