cw: Mentions of sexual violence, colonialism and sex.

He always felt a sort of disconnect with masculinity.

But also, being raised in a very patriarchal society, witnessing sexual violence and inequality targeted at women, he always felt a sort of duty to be a model man.

He was scared of his own sexual desires because he's seen sex used as a way to harm others.

He conformed with gender roles in order to ease his more progressive ideals amongst his parishioners.

He studied feminism and related those topics to his preachings.

He still had a hard time understanding sexual diversity, yet, he was a progressive priest when it came to LGBT+ rights.

When he learnt he was intersexual, he felt very confused and ashamed. It brought back that feeling of alienation with his role as a man.

It made him realize his own biases about gender identity and sexuality.

That only fuelled the feeling of inadequacy for the role he had been filling as a priest and man of god.

Before he was appointed to the clinic, he received a closeted trans penitent to his church.

He saw himself reflected on them and made the choice to be himself.

Afterwards he started doing more research about the difference between sex and gender.

He saw himself reflected on the people that were beyond women and men. Related to the detachment to one's assigned gender, and the desire to not be perceived and be limited by it.

Learning about the coloniality of gender brought him a lot of comfort and solidified his anti imperialist views.

Now that gender and sex wasn't as structured inside his mind and soul, the idea of sex didn't scare him as much-

Sex wasn't something he had to "take" or do to someone else. And he let himself indulge in fantasies and self pleasure.

He found his own gender identity very personal, something he had acknowledged with god only.

By the time he's in the papacy he's very comfortable with his identity.

He finds he enjoys challenging gender norms in his duties and his presentation. Leaving his hair long and wearing more feminine clothing under his cassock.

Pope Innocent never comes out publicly, but he makes sure the church becomes welcome of trans people.

“Fyp” we don’t do that here. I mean, Tumblr the app and website tries, but we don't do that here.

“But then how will anyone see it?” peer review.

“How do you get engagement?” by talking and engaging with other people. Or making a devastating typo. Either way.

“But—” Listen, you’re not doing solo stand up anymore. This is a group improv class being held in a SAW dungeon. Good luck.

OOH SHELL YES

Been watching snis on snoop for a snour. Everybody do the snunky snail

How does one hate a country, or love one? […] I know people, I know towns, farms, hills and rivers and rocks, I know how the sun at sunset in autumn falls on the side of a certain plowland in the hills; but what is the sense of giving a boundary to all that, of giving it a name and ceasing to love where the name ceases to apply?

— Ursula K. Le Guin – The Left Hand of Darkness (1969, p. 212)

This was only the first season? I'm fucked.

Reading a Terry Pratchett book is literally just: Here's a funny little joke Here's something that you can tell is a joke but don't get and will only figure out five years later Here's a surprisingly cool fantasy concept Here's a unique and well written simile Here's a lil guy Here's something that has aged depressingly well into the modern day Here's something that has aged remarkably queer into the modern day Here's a character that you can barely understand what he's saying Here is the most terrifying and deeply disturbing concept you have ever heard, casually mentioned Here is the dumbest fucking pun you've ever heard but in the best way Here is a quote so profound that it makes you view morality and the world in a different way Here is a plot twist that you can't tell if it's genius or stupid Congratulations! You've finished the book! It has fundamentally changed you as a person and you will never be the same!
