My Favorite Genre Of Photos

i know this might be controversial, but enough is enough.

as someone who grew up in the rigidity—and, at times, oppressive nature—of roman catholicism, i am so tired of the religious!reader trope where they’re portrayed as so innocent they’re practically a child. we were not innocent. we knew the names of our bodies, the weight of shame, and the crushing complexity of guilt. i knew that my vagina was a vagina.

the sheer amount of extremely innocent!religious!reader fics is unsettling. they turn the reader into this caricature—wide-eyed, naive, almost infantilized, complete with pigtails and an oversized cross necklace perfect for a porn video thumbnail.

for me—and for a lot of other lesbians i’ve bonded with over religious trauma—it was never about innocence. it was about guilt. guilt over pleasure, guilt over sin, and all the ways we punished ourselves for being human.

we weren’t these overgrown children teetering around in purity. we were messy, complicated, and burdened by shame in ways that were far more nuanced than these portrayals ever capture. enough, please.

You watched a girl grow up and then you lurk in her comments using the 😈 emoji when she was sixteen and you were twenty then you end up dating her…… And on top of that not only are you a man but a ugly one 🙁

Kelsey Plum has had the worst tunnel fits all year. KB has zero swag. Syd's gimmick is tired. Becky needs help. Chelsea Gray is aesthetically disorganized. Jackie Young isn't pulling off the looks her stylist puts her in. Alysha Clark isn't as hot as she used to be. Most of the Aces squad looks like trash every single day. Only A'ja and my honey KMoney look good. Those two get an A+ but the rest fail
