just fyi

Oh god oh god this was submitted to me by an anon for a take-down, and I really regret taking so long to click through the link, because WOW.

This is some racist, classist, sexist, ableist, cissexist, elitist, biphobic bullshit. Congrats, I think you’ve set the new record for types of bigotry in a single post on this blog! (Which is impressive, since this is a call-out blog.)

1) “Sapiosexuality” as attraction to intelligent people of any gender is bisexual erasure. You’re taking another BS label that’s not about what gender(s) you can be attracted to and replacing “bisexual” with it. Adding that weird caveat about romanticism doesn’t fix it. What about someone who’s romantically attracted to people of all genders, but only attracted to intelligent people of their own gender? That would still be BS, but it shows one of the many flaws in your fucked-up labeling system.

2) “Sapiosexuals” all have actual romantic and sexual orientations, and they don’t face any oppression or need any rights separate from those of their actual orientations’ groups.



3) Intelligence is an ableist measure of worth/attractiveness to start with.

4) IQ tests are sexist, racist, and ableist. The education system is also sexist, racist, and ableist. (And more! I think the education system, especially, is hostile to people from all marginalized groups.)

5) That “brains not parts” concept is just a shitty alternative to “hearts not parts.” Binary-identifying trans and intersex people exist, so people of any orientation can be attracted to people with any “parts.”

#claria shut up

Yes, please do.
