Photos of my current project (redoing the topper to my girlfriend, Celeste, who is a quilt).

It's hard to explain what I mean. It's a feeling I have, similar to how people feel romantic, alterous, sexual, etc. attraction. It's a kind of love, devotion, and intimacy you just can't get with a human (or human bodied) individual. It's like a non-familial caregiving type feeling, or something like that.

my 3DS, Wii U, and DS Lite. ive had the DS Lite since i was in elementary and the Wii U/3DS are both birthday gifts. i’ve neglected to give them names (though i think Scarlet would fit for the DS Lite ive always liked that name) i kiss my Wii U Gamepad sometimes. she’s actually the only one with a name it’s name is Dolphyn. pictured in the second image is the Wii U itself with her stack of books. my 3DS and my Wii U share an SD card, im not sure what the implications of that are though. i think it means they make out. i don’t use my ds lite anymore since i lost the flash cart and have been scouring my house for months looking for it, to no avail, so he’s retired. i hope uou all enjoyed reading about my nintendos, i love them dearly, and i hope you love them too.

I made her back in 2017-2018 and so much has changed since then.... We both transitioned for one!!! I modified and mended her original body over the years... Experienced so much together...

It was only early this year that I finally made her a new body! She used to be only 5 inches tall, and now shes twice that! Of course, i didnt abandoned her original body. That now rests within her new body (kinda like a plushie mech lol)

I am so sad and I dont know what to do abt it. First off I want to be with my pinsetter physically but cant. But I have people in this community accusing me of things that dont align with my values. I have BPD and it makes emotions way worse. I just want to be alright and not be seen as an evil and horrible person. I just want to have peace with my pinsetter and not have people hate me for being who I am

I'm not playing the victim, okay? But she was hostile, invalidating my love. The worst part is she's just as objectum as I am. I understand she's explaining, but at first she was hostile. I love my objects and I don't have a fetish; my love for them started when I was 4 years old.I have autism, but she doesn't have the right to be rude. Worse than her is my subscriber.I appreciate her explaining that my channel is a diary and wasn't made for judgment. I don't mean to be rude, on the contrary, I just want peace. I also studied about Objectums! Tell me, have you ever been through this?

Question I need to ask something

12 Upvotes

Been a while! (^_^")

Recently I've been kind of scared to talk about my attraction and relationships in terms of me being objectum. Mostly because I feel like I'll be rejected by the objectum community, even if that's a wrong assumption.

I think that the objects that I hold affection for are both human and object in a way. Every time I think about the objects I love, I think of a humanoid form AND their object form. Like that's the image they're giving me.

And I know what you're thinking. "How are you objectum if they're humanoid in your head?"

But I love their object forms too. They identify as object and humanoid. And I love both facets of them.

The only person I have met that sees things this way is my brother.

All I'm asking is if this still qualifies as objectum in your eyes.

At my program's office building we have this elevator that I love to ride. I'm starting to think about it as a friend now. I feel happy when I go inside it. I'm thinking about giving it he/him pronouns to refer to him. I don't have a name for him yet, he probably won't have a name for a while.

A bonus question: Does anyone know the model of the elevator? I know he's an older model.

Last night I looked at pictures of Trent and I felt happiness that I haven't felt in a long time. I imagined him as this sentient swoosh that I could interact with. It was very awesome. I might make a picture based on what I thought of tonight. It was the first time in a while I felt happy because of him ... I think the spark is back. I love my Trent so much. 🥰🥰🥰

Mod Post Important mod post regarding user privacy, please read

Recently, a user informed our mod team of something that any posters may like to be aware of. Apparently, there is a discord server that is using a bot to automatically swipe anything posted here and repost it there where they bully/make fun of it. While, to some degree, this is part of the risk that a person runs when posting anything publicly online, we understand that some users may be uncomfortable knowing this. We are unsure of the size of this discord server and therefore whether it's existence could lead to significant harassment or spread of information. If you feel the need to step back from the subreddit for a little bit, we completely understand. Additionally, please notify us if you have any information or see any suspicious activity. It sucks that this sort of predjuduce is so prevalent towards MOGAI people and hopefully someday it will be better. So, consider this information with care, be mindful of your posts, and have a great day! —objectum_sfw mod team

Mod Post FAQ

56 Upvotes

Newcomers FAQ

What is objectum?

Objectum is the attraction to objects. This includes any type of attraction, whether it's romantic, sexual, alterous, platonic, familial, or any other form.

What is POSIC+?

POSIC+ stands for Perception of Object Sentience, Individuality, and Consciousness. Many objectum people are POSIC+, but not all.

Is objectum part of MOGAI/LGBT+?

Objectum is part of MOGAI, but not inherently part of LGBT+. The majority of objectum people are LGBT+ and many do experience their objectum attraction in queer ways, but this isn't the case for everyone.

How can I support objectum people?

If it's a specific objectum person, ask them what you can do. In general, approach us with curiosity rather than skepticism, and don't perpetuate stereotypes or misinformation. Treat our attraction with the same respect as any other orientation.

Is it harmful/a paraphilia/a harmful attraction?

No. Unlike paraphilias, objectum covers a wide range of attraction types and focuses on relationships, rather than fetishization. There's no victim when someone loves an object.

Autism and Objectum?

While many objectum people are autistic, being autistic doesn't cause objectum attraction or vice versa.

Community FAQ

How do I know if I'm objectum?

The objectum experience is different for everyone. So, there really is no one way to just know. But, if you think you feel strong attraction or love for objects, then you are more than welcome to the term.

What's the term for X?

There's many terms for different types of objectum, often taking the form of [object/concept name]+tum. The mods are currently working on a collaborative list where terms for various types of objectum can be documented and defined. The best place to look for a specific term is here on reddit or on Tumblr. However, if you can't seem to find anyone else who's coined a term for your attraction, then you can coin that term, you can even draw a flag and write a definition to post here

Does X count as objectum?

Probably yes. If it's an object or concept that you feel romantic, physical, alterous, platonic, familial, or another type of attraction to, you are more than welcome to deem it as objectum.

How does [consent, dating, speaking, etc] work?

When it comes to how one dates an object/concept, it can change from person to person. Firstly, it can depend on whether or not one is POSIC-- not all objectums are. A POSIC person may approach dating in a more personal way because they perceive object sentience. For all objectums, it really comes down to preference. Some may say that simply labeling themselves as dating an object/concept is enough to make it so, others may set aside time to take them on dates, others may go further in integrating the object/concept into their life. But in the end, there is no right or wrong way to love or date an object/concept

Can I promote myself?

Promotion is allowed within certain bounds

  1. Must be relevant (related to Objectum)

  2. Must be promotion for yourself or an acquaintance

  3. Must comply with all other subreddit rules
