Hello, I Saw Your Post About "my Body, My Choice" And I Really Don't Want To Be Offensive Or Rude, But

Hello, I saw your post about "my body, my choice" and I really don't want to be offensive or rude, but I genuinely would like to know why you think it doesn't go both ways? Isn't it her body, her choice wether she wants to keep it or not? Sorry again if I am being dumb here.

no worries, nonnie, not rude at all.

my issue is not on an in story level. you’re right, it does go both ways and it’s bex’s choice.

the thing is ‘my body, my choice’ is and has always been a pro choice slogan. its message is that female reproductive health and the choice to be and stay or not pregnant should be up to the woman. and that having an abortion is not evil, it’s not a sin or a shame. it is a valid choice, up to the person who is pregnant.

ed have repeatedly and consistently treated abortion as shameful (look at kerry, she was practically punished for having an abortion when she felt it was the right thing to do.) and while i understand that a lot of it comes from not wanting to alienate the audience it’s aimed at, just the introduction of the “forced abortion” detail shows how it’s treated as abortion is the worst thing that could happen to a women.

to use a slogan about choice, a known, established slogan, in a storyline with the opposite purpose, is a massive slap in the face. ‘my body, my choice’ means whether someone has an abortion or not, it’s their prerogative. and either choice is valid and there is no shame in either.

How it should be! Just lovely!

Robert & Aaron cuddling. Am I the only one who dreams about this? { literally like, it's happened multiple times now}

honestly i wanted to write you about 8k worth of cuddling situations but i hope you enjoy this little scene!

Robert woke to the familiar feeling of Aaron pressed close to him, one of his husband’s legs shoved between his own, and arm slung over Robert’s middle as they slept. They didn’t often fall asleep tangled up in each other, it was too hot and impractical to cuddle every single night, but Robert loved that they gravitated to each other in the night.

That even subconsciously, they wanted to be close to each other.

Aaron shifted in his sleep, pressing his chin into the groove of Robert’s neck, Robert instantly uncomfortable. He hated when Aaron did that, his husband’s chin all scruffy and pointy, digging into his shoulder in the worst kind of way.

“Move,” Robert elbowed Aaron, earning himself a sleepy grumble from his other half.

“S’early.”

“And you’re giving my neck beard burn again, move it.” Robert rolled his eyes, trying to wiggle from Aaron’s grasp, Aaron’s grip on Robert’s t-shirt only getting tighter the more Robert tried to move. “Aaron, come on.”

“I’m comfortable!” Aaron protested, more awake now, scratching his beard against the sensitive skin of Robert’s neck, purposely trying to annoy him now.

“Don’t be a dick, Aaron.”

“You love me,” Aaron smirked, but shifted so his face was pressed to Robert’s back, his hand bunching up the hem of Robert’s t-shirt, so he could press the palm of his hand to the warm skin of Robert’s stomach.

It took Robert a second or two to get settled against, linking his fingers with Aaron’s, the familiar sensation of their ring’s clinking together making his heart race. It was one of the reasons he loved when Aaron wanted to be the one to cuddle him, their left hands always finding each other, wedding rings always glinting together as they lay close, blocking out the rest of the world.

Robert never knew how much he liked being cuddled until Aaron, if he was honest. Something about Aaron, having Aaron’s arms around him made him feel safe, and loved, in ways he’d never known before.

It was nice.

It was always nice to have Aaron hold him, feel the length of Aaron’s body pressed to his back, feel Aaron’s breath ghost across the back of his neck. Robert could stay here forever, he really could.

In an hour or so, their alarm would go off, and the usual morning routine would start. Robert would be the first to get up, and shower, Aaron half asleep on Robert’s side of the bed when he’d finish, Robert kissing his husband awake, damp hair against Aaron’s skin, making him laugh, eventually coercing him out of bed with the promise of breakfast.

Aaron didn’t mind mornings, most of the time, but Robert figured he just liked being woken up the way Robert always did on those early mornings, and he was always happy to indulge his husband.

“I love you,” Robert breathed softly, letting his eyes flutter shut, surrounded by the warmth of their thick duvet, the warmth Aaron always radiated, his body temperature always running high.

It was like having his own personal radiator in bed, at times.

Aaron pressed a kiss to Robert’s clothed shoulder, his response soft, more of a sleepy mumble than it was anything else. “Love you more.”

When a couple are talking, there’s just a way of talking and looking at each other that many people just catch on.

Will the boyfriends be in it in Monday? And how did Adan just get it by Robert touching Aaron's arm?

They are both in Monday’s episode. :)

And IDK?? Honestly I completely missed the arm touch the first time so I was even more ????????? about how Adam knew lol. I guess Vic’s got him on Robron-watch or something.

The Sun disgust me. I am so angry I could spit nails! This rubbish is libel. What soap/actor are The Sun supporting, trying to derail Danny’s best actor, which he totally deserves, and Emmerdale as best soap? I am seething with anger!!!

In other news Danny kidnapped a bus full of nuns and drowned some puppies. Don't let him win best actor he's a super villain who must be stopped!!!!!!!!! (Headlines from The Sun next week)

HAHAHAHAHAHA OMG THIS IS BRILLIANT!!!

Exactly. She and Robert will soon actually be close.

Robron & Liv

I love that Robert and Aaron have got a story line the minute they’ve got together. It would have been easy for the writers to put them together so they live happily ever after and disappear into the soap background.

Instead they’ve got Liv who is entertaining me no end, she’s gobby and opinionated and ready for mischief. Aaron adores her and she makes him smile. He can probably see himself in her. She is going to rock the boat temporarily, but she’ll love Robert like Jacob loves David one day!
