Are you a boy or a girl?

I identify as genderqueer.

From Feeling Wrong in Your Own Body:

Some people also refer to gender-variance as being “genderqueer”. “Some people identify as genderqueer because their gender identity is androgynous,” said [Dr. Laura] Erickson-Schroth. “Some use the term bi-gendered to describe themselves. Others identify as nongendered. Some people use the term genderqueer because they oppose the binary gender system.”

This question will especially not be answered if you’re anon.

Do your own research and educate yourself. You have Google. You have no excuse.

What’s your name/What’s your real name?

Eli or Elias is the name I go by.

What pronouns do you prefer?

Depends on which gender I’m presenting. Usually, I go by male pronouns, unless specifically presenting female.

However, if you’re just messing around and using the term, “GURRRRL,” you may, because I do that to my gay male friends all the time, and they do it to me.

Which leads us to our next question:

What is your sexuality?

Honestly, it’s none of your business, but I identify as asexual. That’s all I’ll say on the matter, and if you want to know more (genuinely curious, I mean. Not trying-to-be-mean-and-start-something) leave me an ask and we’ll discuss.

If you’re asexual/gay/straight why do you post sexual pictures of women/men?

I reblog beauty.

That’s really all I can say.

If you can’t see the beauty in a human body, all types, all colours, all kinds, well … then, I pity you.

If you’re asexual, how come you’re not a virgin?

First of all, being asexual is different to being celibate, because asexual (Ace identified) people can and do have sex, but usually not for their own gain - there are some Aces that will have sex to show affection towards their partner, without gaining anything from it themselves. Celibacy is when you chose not to have sex at all.

TRIGGER WARNING FOR RAPE

When I was 12, I was raped. And all throughout my 14th and 15th years of my life, I was repeatedly gang-raped by friends of an acquaintance.

If you really must go the whole “YOU WERE RAPED SO YOU HAVE A VAGINA” route, please educate yourself. Hint: those are links.

No, I am not discussing any of the rapes with anyone who asks. I don’t really feel like you all need details.

Are you Muslim?

Yes. Yes, I am. I love my religion. I pray five times a day, I fast, I read the Qur’an, and believe in one God.

Why do you support LGBTQ rights if you’re Muslim?

First, let’s get one thing straight: I support human rights. They’re humans, too, and deserve equal rights. I believe in equality for everyone and a fair amount of tolerance. Some of the best people I know are part of the LGBTQ community, and you will never convince me otherwise.

Why don’t you post your face?

Because my family sometimes snoops around my stuff, and also people I know (who might out me before I’m ready) in real life follow me.

I may, under request from followers, but ten to twenty minutes later, I’ll take it down or delete it.

I must also formally request that you not reblog these posts.

Will you post nudes?

Never. Sorry.

Especially if you’re requesting this as anon.
