I Don't Believe Anything Can Be Generally - Tumblr Posts

welp I just saw one of those "love is the whole point and if you think that phrase only refers to romantic love that's a you problem" posts on my dash so

Loveless people, you're rad as fuck and I have so much respect for you.

People have different priorities and even people who do feel love might not experience it as "the whole point."

Usually, people do mean "romantic love" by "love" because of amatonormativity. Aros getting defensive about that is not an attack on you but a reflection of the cultural implications surrounding the word "love."

"Love" is a social construct (based in an amatonormative and ableist society) that means different things to different people.

"Love" is not inherently a force of good and can be used to hurt people, just like anything else.

Love is not "the whole point" to me or many other people.
