i go by they/them and always thought 'themslash' was a cute play on words :/

like, 'slash' implies m/m and femslash is femslash, and 'them' is literally the pronoun i use as a nb individual, so... idk i just thought it was cute and liked having a term that specifically referenced nb/nb relationships.

not saying you're wrong or that your feelings aren't just as valid as mine, because they are. i'm just a bit confused and maybe i don't get out much. maybe some connotations going over my head? (if any anon feels up to explaining why they feel othered by it, that'd be great? as it's still a pretty esoteric term and thus not that easy to google around for...)
