Insightful text on relationship anarchy with a focus on an asexual and/or aromantic perspective
What relationship anarchy hinges on the most, for me, is the equality it seeks to create across the relationship board, so that sexual relationships are not superior to nonsexual relationships and “romantic” relationships are not superior to nonromantic friendships, and that equality means that a nonsexual and/or nonromantic friend has the same amount of access to love, intimacy, physical affection, support, etc.
They also used to call someone with ADHD or ASD or some other disorder “being a little shit”, but language has always been a work in progress.
