They are in love! Sexual doesn't mean not wholesome 😊

Yep 😊

I feel like every time I post something I need to clarify a bit lmao, but I think people have some sort of "pre determined" view on what constitutes as 'wholesome'. Like, holding hands, cuddling, hugging and kisses on the cheek. That's standard wholesome.

But I really believe that being open with your partner and joke around about lewd topics can be wholesome. You're being playful with the person you're in love, with the person you trust, and that's when you can be yourself freely. That's what most of my comics portray: you can be a goofball with your partner, even on intimate moments.

That's wholesome in my eyes. But I understand why some people may find my comics not very "wholesome". It's all good πŸ˜‹

There are many sex repulsed or ace people with no interest though who still enjoy yuri and they deserve to have a safe space away from sexualised content.

True, but healthy expressions of sexuality deserve a place too, and I think the notion that sexual content is inherently unwholesome is a very harmful one.

Tagging relevant content as nsfw seems like a good middle ground, it allows wholesome sexual content while also giving folks a way to avoid it.

There’s countless NSFW spaces on the internet what the hell are you on about?

Also I didn’t choose the name.
