i want a world where friendship is appreciated as a
form of romance. i want a world where when people
ask if we are seeing anyone we can list the names of
all of our best friends and no one will bat an eyelid.
i want monuments and holidays and certificates
and ceremonies to commemorate friendship. i want
a world that doesn't require us to be in a sexual or
romantic partnership to be seen as mature (let alone
complete). i want a movement that fights for all
forms of relationships, not just the sexual ones. i want
thousands of songs and movies and poems about the
intimacy between friends. i want a world where our
worth isn't linked to our desireability, our security to
our monogamy, and our family to our biology.
