Okay, so, fictionkin terminology has gotten pretty diluted outside the community in the past few years, due to a massive influx of casual interest in the community during a time while anti-kin were impersonating fictionkin as a form or trolling and harassment.
But I’m going to try not to go on a rant about that.
A “kintype” is the term for who you are as a fictionkin. For example, some of my kintypes are Vriska, Toko Fukawa, Sabretooth, Karl Heisenberg, and Revolver Ocelot.
Some people refer to the ‘characters’ they are as their “kins” but this was not even marginally accepted community terminology until very recently, and a lot of older community members including myself are more or less against it’s use entirely for reasons I won’t get into here.
The term “kinning” falls under this same umbrella of not being accepted terminology by serious fictionkin, and I explain why for this one.
“Kinning” is a verb which describes an action, but being fictionkin is not an action, it’s something that you are. You wouldn’t (in serious circumstances) describe yourself as ‘girling’ or ‘eightteening’, you’d say you’re a girl, or say you’re eighteen.
Personally I think youāre wrong and an idiot but thatās just my opinion.
Fyi this isnāt a dig at people who are asexual or sex-repulsed. Gay sex was literally a criminal act in the parts of the United States
Texasuntil 2003. A healthy relationship to both sex and your body is a major component of the human experience, but especially LGBTQ+ people. Yes this includes people who have a healthy understanding of their boundaries with regards to sex. To try and divorce the fight for LGBTQ+ rights from sexuality is both dangerous and ahistorical.Part of the fight is the inclusion of, and solidarity with, aromantic people. The original āace discourseā was equally as horrific to aromantic people, and a huge part of how aromanticism was targeted was through the idea of a person who isnāt romantically attracted to their sexual partners- which people painted as immoral and cruel, and compared to misogynistic men leading women on in order to use them for sexual gratification.
Itās just as important to fight for peopleās freedom to have whatever kind of (consensual) sex they want, for any reason they want, as it is to fight for the freedom to not want, and to not have, any sex at all.
