SanduTiTa

I live in Finland and am just trying to live a bearable life.

I am most active on Tumblr (both blogs). I do also update my other social media, but not as often. I am least active on YouTube.

I like to draw sometimes. (a lot actually)

My birthday is on the 25th of May.

My favourite colour is blue (mainly azure and egyptian blue).

Other colours I like: aqua, purple, turquoise, indigo.

I like to light up candles.

My favourite animal is cat.

I often stay up too late. It especially becomes a problem on holidays; the times when I go to bed easily stretch out to 8 am.

I am very lonely and sad. All the time. You're welcome to come and talk to me anytime :). I swear I'm a nice person, even if I mope around at times 😅.

My favourite type of music is electronic music. I know that's a very broad category, but that's really the only way I know how to describe it. I am sort of omnivorous when it comes to electronic music, although I am also very selective about it. I also like certain alternative/indiepop music, such as Miike Snow (I don't really keep up with the genres, but apparently that's the case ¯_(ツ)_/¯).

I am agender/genderless. You can find all my other queer identities at my pronouns.page ^^.

I am white.

I am an atheist and I'm not an anti-theist.

I am not plural (I am a singlet).

I procrastinate a lot.

I support all good faith LGBTQIA+ identities unconditionally. That includes (this should be obvious): xenogenders, pronoun non-conforming people (such as he/him lesbians), mspec lesbians, mspec gays, straight lesbians, straight gays, mspec straights and lesbian men. Gender and sexual identity can be very complex and difficult to understand for many people, and combining/mixing up/creating labels can often be the solution to that distress. For some people, their identity is very simple and straightforward and they probably won't need any more specific labels, but for many others, it's not that simple, and that's something people need to accept instead of directing hostility towards people they don't understand/people who are in any way different from them.

I also support the usage of neopronouns.

I believe that all aspec people (asexual, aromantic, demisexual, demiromantic etc.) inherently have a place in the LGBTQ+ community, even those who are cishet (like cisgender heteroromantic asexual people or cisgender heterosexual aromantic people). Many aspec people do experience discrimination based on being aspec, even if it's not widely documented.

I support plural systems and their experiences and am willing to learn more about them.

I support Black Lives Matter and agree with ACAB (All Cops Are Bastards).

I believe that trans people do not owe any sort of gender expression to anyone. Trans women don't have to be feminine, trans men don't have to be masculine and nonbinary/genderqueer people don't have to be androgynous in order to be women/men/nonbinary/genderqueer.

I believe that tone indicators are very useful and help many people, especially neurodivergent people, understand the tone of the sentence or conversation in question, but I don't think they're inherently necessary. Some miscommunications can occur, but those can always be resolved.

I believe that cisgender people putting pronouns in their bio is helpful to transgender people in the sense that it normalizes putting pronouns in your bio and not assuming another person's pronouns, so I encourage cis people to do just that if they want to, BUT I don't encourage or condone pressuring people into putting their pronouns on display, as this may force closeted trans people to either out or misgender themselves. Having or not having pronouns in bio is not a moral meter (but it can be a somewhat quick way to determine a person's general political stands, as conservative/alt-right people don't usually tend to have them in their bios).

I don't support J.K. Rowling in any way. TERFs need to cease to exist. If you're a fan of Harry Potter, I won't condemn you for that, but I will be suspicious of you if you don't explicitly express support for trans people and oppose Rowling and TERFs in general. Seriously, there are a hundred of other wizard stories, ones that aren't littered with racism and antisemitism.

I am an atheist. I'm not even an agnostic atheist, I just straight-up don't think there's any likelihood of gods existing in reality. I am not an anti-theist, I respect everyone's faiths, even though I do believe that a lot of people use their religion as an excuse to do and believe horrible things. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with believing in a higher power or anything like that, that's just what some people need in their life to get through difficult situations and the like. However, I think society has prioritised religion too much. Everyone should have the freedom to practice whichever religion they prefer, but it shouldn't be prioritised over science or human rights.

I am also pro-choice/pro-abortion, although that should've been obvious enough. People should have the right to decide what happens to their own bodies; no one is entitled to another person's body, even if it were to save another person's life in the process. (Although, the claim that an insentient fetus that feels absolutely nothing is a person in any way is ludicrous. Is it a part of the human species? Yes. Is it a person with thoughts and feelings? Absolutely not. That's why it should never be prioritised over the actual person carrying it. People are more valuable than fetuses.)

Billionaires shouldn't exist. When a person has so much money that they can easily provide for themself and many others for the rest of their life and wouldn't even be able to spend it all within their lifetime and yet still decide against helping out people in need even though they clearly have all the power to do so, it's clear that they're incredibly self-centred, greedy and negligent towards other people and their needs. Money equals power, and they're trying to gather as much power as possible. Billionaires are hoarders of money and it absolutely isn't healthy for anyone.

I am accepting of polyamorous and ambiamorous people and their relationship types. Having multiple partners doesn't make someone inherently more likely to cheat or be a bad partner. Polyamorous relationships can be healthy, rewarding, consensual and agreed upon just like monoamorous relationships. For this same reason, I also think polygamy should be made legal everywhere. It's not an inherently bad thing to be married to multiple people. The power imbalances within are what cause issues, not the relationship type itself. And a child should also be able to have more than two judicial parents.

I am anti-fatphobia, anti-ableism and anti-body-shaming. The world should be made accessible for all and no body type should be demonised. When I say body shaming, I include mocking someone for being bald or balding, for having bad teeth hygiene, for having a small penis or a micropenis, for having an unconventionally looking vulva (e.g. the inner labia being larger than outer labia), and for having facial disfigurements. Ridiculing someone for having any of these features is unacceptable.

You just shouldn't say anything about a person's body unprompted. You can compliment or criticise them in a million other ways.

I don't accept mocking, ridiculing or discriminating against someone for having an addiction or for having been addicted in the past. Not being an addict is a privilege, not a virtue.

People should always add alternative text to any pictures they post whenever possible to make them accessible to people who need screenreaders to navigate the internet, for example, blind people and people with dyslexia. I also think all videos should have subtitles so that deaf people and people who aren't deaf but simply can't make out what's being said for one reason or another can also understand the video. (And those subtitles should also include sounds in addition to speech, for example (laughing), (frustrated sigh) or (water splashing).)

Sex work is real work. It's not an inherently wrong or immoral occupation and it shouldn't be something to be ashamed of. It also doesn't naturally mean that anyone who does sex work was coerced into doing it. Any work is bad work if someone is coerced into it, sex work isn't special on this occasion. People who do sex work deserve just as much respect and support as anyone else.

I am anti-kinkshaming. Kinks and BDSM are not inherently harmful. People are just averse to it for the same reason people are averse to anything that is considered "sexual deviancy", and it's a bullshit reason (by saying this I don't mean that everyone should be into kink, my point is simply that people shouldn't object to something that is harmless on its own).

It's unfair and unreasonable for male-presenting breasts to be viewed as acceptable and unproblematic and female-presenting breasts to be viewed as unacceptable, controversial, inappropriate and inherently sexual. Breasts are a normal part of the human body, they don't need to and shouldn't be hidden, and they are NOT NSFW. The reason why female-presenting breasts are so vigorously censored is that sexist and misogynistic people want to control female-presenting people's bodies, and it's incredibly wrong. We as a society should strive towards normalising female-presenting breasts and let everyone choose for themselves whether they want to have their breasts censored or not. Male-presenting people should have their breasts censored if they so desire and female-presenting people should be allowed to have their breasts visible if they so desire. Everyone should have bodily autonomy, and that includes visibility.

No body part is inherently sexual, in fact, not even genitals are inherently sexual, since there are many people out there who don't have sex because they don't want to, and they just don't view their body that way. Everyone should be allowed to define their body for themselves. Nudity is something that should also be normalised because the human body is not evil or disgusting, not when it's clothed and not when it's nude. It's wrong how society and especially social media is so anti-nudity, there's no other reason for it but to demonise, censor and control the human body, especially the bodies of marginalised people. The human body is beautiful, all types of breasts are beautiful and all genitalia is beautiful.

Drag is a form of art and it is not inherently sexual. People only view it as sexual because it contradicts hetero- and cisnormative gender norms, but that's not a logical conclusion. Drag can be sexual, but so can literally any other form of art. Everyone should be able to participate in drag if they want to, no matter their gender identity, ethnicity or age. And to place a ban on drag is to also indirectly place a ban on trans people since literally any type of gender non-conformity can be interpreted as drag, when most of the time it's not. We shouldn't ban any marginalised people, and we shouldn't ban harmless art forms.

Please only refer to me in gender neutral language. The exception to this is if it's masculine and used as slang, such as "dude", "bro", or "guy". I'm fine with all that :).

I prefer gender neutral compliments but I also prefer masculine compliments over feminine ones such as "handsome" over "beautiful" etc.

For drawings I make using a computer, I usually use either GIMP or MS Paint. I might also occasionally use Krita. I always tag the Tumblr post (@sandu7174) with the program that I used for the artwork in question. I don't use a drawing tablet of any kind, I, in fact, use a mouse to draw. I know that may come as a shock to many digital artists, but really it's just what I've gotten used to and it works for me, and I don't feel like spending a large amount of money on a device I don't even need. I've been using a mouse to draw ever since I started making digital art in 2012 when I was a young child, it's really the only thing I've ever known.

For drawings I make using a phone, I use ibis Paint X, and I use my fingers to draw.

A post about nipple equality

I wish human breasts weren't considered nudity

I need more people to talk about topfreedom

The fact that we don't have topfreedom genuinely hurts me

There's no good reason

Can we start pestering

Imagine a world

I need to see more images of topless no-op transmascs

I want to be free

I wish the same courtesy was given to the whole Free The Nipple -issue as well

Let's talk about topfreedom
