Get the Amaya mug.Amaya is usually a little insecure about herself, she worries about her looks, her hair, her face, event though no one judges her like that. She has a lot of friends but is only close with a few of them. She has a great sense of humor and is really pretty. Usually into art, singing, or music. Really shy, but once you get to know her shes a really great person. Very adventurous, likes scary things, a dare devil. Not into sports but pretty athletic. Gets along with almost everyone.

Get the Amaya mug.The assumption that a central, exclusive, amorous relationship is normal for humans, in that it is a universally shared goal, and that such a relationship is normative, in the sense that it should be aimed at in preference to other relationship types
Assuming that because someone enjoys and gets excited at the prospect of seeing a person they care about is because they secretly have a crush on them is perpetuating amatonormativity.
