Black sexuality representation we want to see

@sapphosigns asked:

Greetings =) I was wondering if any Black mods and followers would be up to sharing your thoughts/feelings on portrayals of Black characters sexuality- given that a lot of portrayals hypersexualise or fetishize. What would you want to see/feel is more balanced given the way black people are treated in media at large? (thank you for doing what you do with this blog)

Here is my opinion on things that should be more represented in relationships involving Black characters, concerning their sexuality:

More queer relationships.

Black gay men or women

Bisexual characters

Aromantic or asexual characters too

Even though we tend to be more closeted depending on how theses identities are viewed in our communities (generally for religious motives), Black people aren’t “more straight” than White people for example.

Healthy and light-hearted relationships

Relationship not rooted in trauma or violence.

Going with that, more tenderness and romanticism too, with the funny-awkward moments that go with it.

Weird love declarations, embarrassing but lovingly awkward sexual situations.

Healthy family dynamics

I also want to add that it extends to family dynamics.

Black characters having a present partner for their children or having both their parents together (to be careful with the Absent Black Father trope).

More relationships involving two Black characters

More relationships involving two Black characters!! Lots of relationships involving a Black character involve a White lover. While this is okay, Black love could be a bit more depicted outside the romance genre (I’m thinking fantasy and science-fiction, or Young Adult).

More interracial relationships not involving a white partner.

These relationships can be harder to find in literature, due to the prevalence of the White lover.

There’s an amazing french graphic novel titled Amours croisées by Laura Nsafou and Camélia Blandeau which depicts Yari, a Black girl living in Paris, falling in love with Hide, who has East-Asian origins and mostly… is polyamourous. The graphic novel is about discovering different ways to love, including inside your own relationship. The drawing style and the plot are really soft. That’s an example of what can be done to depict our relationships in a caring way.

Black followers, please add the BIPOC queer representation you want to see!

This needs to be a book prompt, and I swear I would eat this like I haven't eaten in weeks! 🥰❤️

big beefy boyfriend driving a big truck and you, their small s/o, constantly lookin so good in the passenger seat

imagine this big ass beefy hot adonis whipping a big ass Chevy Silverado with one hand and you, his tiny patootie of a s/o sitting all pretty in his passenger seat. 🤤

imagine the sun constantly getting in your face and you're too small for the sun visor to do anything. he'll make sure to keep a few pairs of shades in the glove compartment for you. he'll even take you shopping for a new pair

omg, he loves watching ur tiny ass get into the truck. now a Silverado is a pretty heavy-duty truck but he has his lifted with some pretty big tires so it's higher than usual. he likes seeing you grab the handle to pull yourself up. but his favorite thing to do is help you get in himself.

his lil baby 💕
