RADQUEER EXPLAINED
The complete guide of radqueer identities, by an actual radqueer
DEFINITION
The radqueer movement is focused on supporting any weird queer identity. This includes:
・proshipping
・transIDs
・paraphilias ( included big 3 )
・xenogenders
・neopronouns
・endogenic systems
although a radqueer person doesn't have to support each single point of this list , everyone has their own opinions and might not support everything.
SHIPPING
PROSHIPPING

Proshipping doesn't stand for "problematic shipping" , but it means quite literally its name. In fact , proshipping refers to a belief that each ship should be respected and not harassed. Of course one could have different reasonings and stances. Proshippers are sometimes also profiction (🍋🌈)
PROFICTION

Profiction is another belief and not a kind of ship. Profictions believe that everything that they support in fiction shall be possible only in fiction , and not in real life at all.
COMSHIPPING

Comshipping stands literally for "complex ships". This doesn't necessarily means problematic , but it includes stuff like:
-monster x human
-waiter x client
-rarepairs
-step sibling x step sibling
-crackships
-polyamory
-teacher x student ( I REMIND Y'ALL THAT UNIVERSITY STUDENTS ARE STUDENTS TOO AND THEY'RE 20+ YEARS OLD. )
DARKSHIPPING

Darkshipping is what all of you guys mix up with comship and proship. Alongside with "dead dove do not eat" , it indicates abusive and other problematic ships. "Dead dove do not eat" refers to a movie scene were a guy opens a fridge with a sign reading: Dead dove , do not eat. He opens the fridge and remains disgusted and shocked , this can be applied in ships too , as in "take this as a warning , this contains something that might disgust you" (such ships). You can choose to open it , or to not. But you're warned, therefore the choice is on your responsibility.
"Fiction does affect reality!"
Fiction does not really affect reality, what affects reality is how you handle fiction. If there is a show with any abusive trope , for any possible reason 1. you can decide not to watch it and 2. movies usually have warnings which explicitly express the content and the triggers of the film. As long as the film explicitly saids and declares that the contents of the film shall not be repeated nor romanticized , deciding whether to romanticize them or not is your own choice.
"Go to therapy" or "I don't care if its a copying mechanism , it's wrong"
Therapy is not accessible for everyone. Most com / dark shippers are such due to (severe) trauma , and their shipping copying mechanism is tied to PTSD / C-PTSD ( complex PTSD ) or / and hypersexuality. One does not chose their copying mechanism , and most of the times this is the best option , as if not pushing their urges onto fiction literally saves these people from acting upon them in actual real life. Therefore , this copying mechanism could disgust you , and it's totally okay , but I totally assure you that dark / comshippers most of the time do not interact and do not search to interact with antis. If they do , they're either trying to explain and discuss or ( if insulting etc ) trolling .
TRANS - IDs
DEFINITION
A transID is any other form of transitioning, different from "transgender" , although it works quite the same exact way. This includes:
・transethnicity
・transnationality
・transage
・transharmful
・transopinion
・translingual
・transspecies
・transaccent
and many other categories and subcategories. But how is this possible? Why do these people use these labels?
HOW and WHY?
Dysphoria is a feeling that is not only happening in matters of gender dysphoria , but also in many other forms. Dysphoria is a feeling of inadequacy , a feeling of discomfort caused by one's internal feelings conflicting with one's own external traits and situation. It is not necessarily tied to gender , it could happen to anyone , for anything , and it is a feeling with complicated origins which can not simply be "cured" and pathologized. Dysphoria is a strong sensation that cannot be "fought against."
EXAMPLE
transnationality: each country , Nation , has some distinctive traits other than geographical features and political government systems, such as population traits. In general, the concept of a country its not something tied in one's brain and genes , but its a personal feeling of interpretation. I will describe my own personal experience. I grew up in [x] country , and since my first years I've noticed the strong personality traits which are tied to my country's population due to its history. I've never fit into that description and I've always had quite some problems with fitting in , I've never had those trait the 99% of the [x]s had. I felt always so cut out , and growing up my grandparents whom are not from [x] only amplified this feeling. I soon started to cut out [x] more and more , even in my social life, until it didn't feel like my country anymore. It made me cringe horribly whenever anyone labelled me as "from [x]". It never , never felt right.People whom have a different TransID than transnationality might have a very similar experience. My own experience with transnationality also isn't the only possibile reason for why one could be transnationality , but an example of how it works , to make you understand better how dysphoria different from gender dysphoria might be.
PARAPHILIAS
DEFINITION
Paraphilias are different from kinks but somewhat close to them. They're a form of attraction towards something which is not human , or at least not typical. It could be sexual, aesthetic, romantic , sensual or an alterous form of attraction. Some of them derive from severe traumatic episodes and could be harmful , such as the big three ( p3do - z00 - n3cr0 ).
"But maps are pedophiles"
Actually, MAP stands for " Minor Attracted Person". It could not be necessarily an Adult , although that's possible. Even if it , it is very rare , and most MAPs are either pro recovery or anti contact. Some paraphilias are not controllable and tied strongly to trauma , MAP is the one of those who are such. The MAP and Z00 flags are not about "the pride of being map / zoo " , but more like the pride of getting out of it , or not acting upon such feelings. It is not a flag for encouraging the 🍇 / gr00m of minors. Also , actually AAMs ( Adult Attracted Minors ) , aka PEDPHLES , who are out in real life and commit crimes suxh as mlst*ng kids probably dont even know what the hell the radqueer community is. Also , most MAP accounts you'll see are bait accounts. The only MAPs I've met were recovering and utterly shamed because of it.
"But that's disgusting / immoral / illegal"
The radqueer community is mostly pro recovery and anti contact / complex contact. Therefore , paraphilia flags are for awareness and recovering , and not for encouragment. If anyone ever uses them for such , theyr you most likely bait. Radqueer and people with paraphilias don't go around screaming "HIIII I AM A MAP THE BLOCK BUTTON IS RIGHT THERE !!!! PLEASE USE GORE/POS/POSER/I🍇CHILDRENSELF PRONOUNS!!!!" . That's clearly bait, both mocking radqueers and neopronouns / xenogenders / emojipronouns.
