When Alice Oseman takes over all of your drawings
Boring
“Asexual characters are boring” I have traveled across eleven countries and ten states When I was thirteen I had hydrochloric acid dumped down my back and I walked away without a scratch When I was twenty-one I broke into castle ruins with a professor and found out afterwards that they were probably haunted
I once got stranded on a mountain while I was searching for the Cave of Zeus and got rescued by a little old lady who didn’t speak a word of English and the local village’s schoolteacher who did
I’ve learned how to surf on water, to dance with fire, and to bungee jump through the air I’ve walked up mountains, down beaches and through forests
My friends tell me I have the weirdest luck of anyone they’ve ever met and laugh about what mysterious forces must conspire to keep me alive
And yet, according to you a story about my life would be dull and uninteresting simply because I have no interest in sex
I wasn’t aware that that was the sum total of my value That no one cared about what I’d done only who
That every man must get a girl and every girl must be gotten and that to do otherwise is to be banished into obscurity
And yet I’m still here, still writing, still telling stories, and while I have been described as many things boring has yet to be one of them
Asexual characters are boring I pity your imagination
A Captain’s Love
A fully colored digital comic of the Strawhats from One Piece.
The first page only contains a panel with the words "A Captain's Love.“
The second page shows Luffy and Nami holding hands and smiling at each other. Pictured underneath is a close-up of their interlinked hands and the gray silhouette of a person asking "So, are you guys dating?" Another panel shows Nami's reaction: an appalled expression on her face and "huh?" written in bold red letters.
The second page depicts Luffy sitting on Zoro's lap, happily eating meat while Zoro is drinking. Next to them is a gray silhouette again, asking: "isn't that weird?" At the bottom of the page is Zoro's reaction: an intimidating glare with "WHAT" spelled out in big red capital letters behind him.
The third page contains a drawing of Luffy and Usopp, sleeping on spread out blankets and pillows on the floor while cuddling. Again, the silhouette of a person is in the corner, remarking: "you know what people might think." Usopp's reaction in an extra panel is giving the person a deeply disapproving side-eye, asking "oh yeah...?"
The fourth page depicts Luffy tighly hugging Robin while lifting her in the air as both of them are grinning. The gray silhouette of a person is asking: "Are you really gonna let him act like that with your girlfriend?" Pictured underneath is Franky, deeply confused expression on his face, only responding with a bewildered "uhh...."
The last panel shows Luffy, grinning and holding his hat. The asexual and the aromantic flag are pictured behind him.
Reblog if you genuinely support asexuals
It terrifies me that there’s so much raging passion in the lgbt+ community that insist on marginalizing asexuals and implying that asexuals don’t deserve to have safe spaces. There’s still so much acephobia so I just wanna know which blogs are genuinely supportive and a safe space for asexuals
I’m a day late but sai crashed last night just after I was done with the sketch and I did not feel like drawing it again at that moment.
Ace pride day was yesterday! And so I felt like drawing all my Asexual ocs. We got:
Simone - Aromantic Asexual
Sinensis - Panromantic Asexual
Charon - Demiromantic Asexual
Jo - Demiromantic Asexual (with a bonus pin of the demi girl flag! cause Jo is a demi girl)
I hope ya'all had a good ace pride day! (Oh I almost forgot! Jo uses they/them; Sinensis and Charon use he/him; and Simone uses she/her)
HELLO! I’m making a massive list of EVERY single lgbtqia+ flag (and then posting them wherever I can put them)
This is mostly to spread more YO, THERE ARE SO MANY LABELS FOR YOU GUYS WHO WANNA USE THEM, and also cause I find it fun for character creation!
If you have a Flag I can add to my list that isn’t seen much anywhere then please do either:
Reblog or send it to my inbox, with the flag, name of the sexuality, romanticality, and identity and then it’s meaning!
Microlabels are VERY MUCH ACCEPTED
what I currently have:
(I understand that I can go hunting for more but I find it nice for people to get to express themselves by showing their labels to other people)
All different kinds of the pride flags
Trans flag (will add trans masc and trans femme)
Intersex
Asexual (will grab aromantic and aro/ace)
Bisexual
Pansexual
Lesbian
AND THATS ALL I CAN ADD FROM MOBILE
But do please send in your flags for me to add! :D
(Reblogs appreciated but not forced)

AROACE AND QUEER (OR NOT) PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP OR NOTHING. ‼️‼️‼️‼️
Waiter! More aroace representation in modern media, please!! And add some extra queer platonic relationships on top!!
Serious question and just to know :
Is there a country where arocace people can feel safe, are not discriminated against and are protected ?? Especially a law that protects us or etc ?
I know that anglophone aroace people talk about Denmark because there are apparently a lot of people on the aro and ace spectrums.
Just asking cause I'm fck tired of allo society every day since many years now and also tired of all arophobia et acephobia on social media in the first place. 💀
And in my sh*tty country it's always "lgbT", hOMo, bI and transgender. WHAT ABOUT THE D*MN + ??????? ALWAYS ABOUT ALLOS PP FCK DAMMIT. 💀
(Of course : generality =/= globality !!!! Cause I don't hate all allos pp obviously. Some are decents, respectfull , share same values as mine and infinity open mind.)
•°•°•°•°•°•
My mood :
Second gif is for allos bigots, allo society and all their fck pathetic and disgusting sh*ts.
I hate you infinitely.
I had the reflection not long ago of why I was uncomfortable at school (regardless of grade level) apart from stress because of the oral to pass and being an introverted person :
Being aroace and have to stay stuck a whole damn day surrounded by allos pp horny asf and who will not understand me, who tell me about their s€x life (at what point do you think it’s fckin normal to talk about it as if it was a banal and interesting subject ?? Wtf ???💀) without taking into account whether it made me uncomfortable or not (I think they didn’t give a shit because it didn’t come to their mind, those dumbass...).
Being surrounded by queer pp but none of them had defended me when I had received acephobia from a straight guy one day and only watched the scene without saying anything. The fact that most of them with whom I hung out invisibilized or even forgot my aromantism by remembering only my asexuality (bitches I'm aroace dammit. I’m both. Not one or the other !) and couldn't remember or didn't know the definition of being aro or ace.
But the worst I would say is that by dint of receiving arophobia and acephobia in about twenty years in the face, as an angry person by nature and who doesn't appreciate disrespectful pp etc, I became allophobe...
But let’s be clear : I don’t hate all allos pp ! Even if I speak in general, be aware that : generality =/= globality !
I know that some of them are decent, respectful and open-minded and these are the pp I appreciate ! Unfortunately, I have never met someone like that before. Maybe one day...
So to return to the subject :
Am I the only aroace person to be uncomfortable at school ??
It's a bit rough sorry and sorty again if my english is bad, it's not my native language but I hope you will understand the essential !
Once I saw a comment on a instagram post about the ace, aro spectrums that said approximately :
"For me, all characters in any fictional universe are aroace until they show romantic and/or sexual attraction and I headcanon them as aroace/are part of both spectrums."
AND I AGREE WITH THIS PERSON IT'S SO OBVIOUS !

obligatory gay post for pride month
Arthurian characters I interpret as acespec:
Galahad, the Grail Heroine, and Bors: They generally have no apparent trouble or qualms with the eternal chastity thing (except Bors when he gets cursed, but he gets cursed).
Brangaine: In La Tavola Ritonda, she tells Gouvernail that she never wants to have sexual relationships, and in a text I haven't yet read or been able to identify, she apparently stops Kahedin from sleeping with her by using a magic pillow to make him fall asleep, a role which is Camille's in Kaherdin and Camille.
Dinadan: In LTR, they call him the Wise Man Who Does Not Love, and while he has a romantic interest in LTR, their relationship isn't sexual. To the best of my knowledge, he has no other romantic interest and no sexual relationship in all of medlit and pretty much always scorns both concepts. Usually aro, demiromantic in one text, and always ace.
Lucan: It's not anything he says or does, but unless you count the actions of Lucano the evil half-giant half-lion in LTR, he doesn't have any romantic and/or sexual relationships in any medlit I know of. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, but in my mind, he's on the aro and ace spectrums.
Happy Ace Week to all who celebrate!
Edit: I had somehow left out Dinadan, who I originally meant to include a picture of. I guess you could say he's implicit. Truly one of the aroace icons of all time. He ran so Jughead could also run.
Since I posted this, another of my closest friends came out as aroace.
I’m quickly running out of allo people I know more than tangentially.
I‘ve been wondering about something. Last year, I found out that being asexual was a thing, not just a quirk of mine… then realized that five of my friends already privately or publicly identified as such. Consider that: asexuals are estimated to make up about 1% of the population yet account for about 40% of my friends. Is that just a weird coincidence, are ace people more likely to gravitate toward each other (due to their likely disinterest in certain topics of conversation or general vibes or goodness knows what), did the experts significantly underestimate how many asexuals there are, or some combination of the three? I suspect it’s the third but I’m not sure to what extent each thing is a factor. Any thoughts?

Arthuriana has so many major aspec characters, and it’s fabulous
Here are a few characters who I interpret as aspec:
Dinadan!!! He is an absolute aroace icon. In a source whose name has slipped my mind, Isolde comments on how he ought to be in a relationship and his reaction is something along the lines of, “Yeah, hard pass. How’s that working out for you, by the way?” (Read it with sarcasm).
Galahad, Bors, and the Grail Heroine all seem quite happy about the eternal chastity thing. None of them have any close calls with demon ladies, unlike poor Percival, the one allo person in the friend group. (Yes, Bors has a son, but a cursed ring was involved there, which is why as much as I do not stand Bors’ Morte misogyny, I will always pity him).
Kay is very rarely ascribed romantic relationships, and in one Welsh source, his father prophesies that Kay’s heart will be “eternally cold”, which could be interpreted as never enflamed by love.
Any others who come to mind?
Happy Pride Month
This is Emory (They/Them) Bi-Romantic Asexual OC of Mine
International Asexuality Day!!
Today, the 6th of April, is international asexuality day.
It’s only the 3rd year of celebration, as the day was recognised in 2021!!
It’s worldwide effort to recognize the asexuality community and promote understanding of the asexual spectrum, including all umbrella identities!!
