This is great & easy to understand about the Ace experience
Note: This isn’t an insult/sassy come back to people to asking valid questions/statements (well maybe a bit sassy lol), none of it’s meant to offend people that are calmly trying to educate themselves to lgbtq+. Questions are always welcome!
These used to be big things?! Genuinely, maybe three years ago I saw a post about using a black ring and I thought it was a very small thing, maybe made up by the person I saw the video from. I never realized it was an actual thing!
I have seen the cake and garlic bread stuff, but I didn't know about the spades symbolism, the dragon or space stuff, it sounds so cool!!!
I always saw the big amounts of content regarding other sexualities and never a lot about the ace community, I'll be honest, it made me feel isolated and like I was the only one or the one out of place.
HOLD UP HOW WAS I NOT AWARE OF THIS
All of the above please
REblog if you are Asexual, support Asexuals, or spend most of your time actually thinking about Superheroes.
"Asexuality is a sexuality and as a whole is not inherently rooted in mental health problems or hormone problems and thus should not be pathologized."
And
"Some people who use the label asexual are asexual due to trauma, mental health conditions, or medications/hormonal problems and they should always be welcome within the asexual community."
Are two concepts that can and should coexist.
“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
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 !
International Asexuality Day!!
wanna know why being on the ace spectrum is awesome?
Garlic bread.
Getting to eat garlic bread without anyone interrupting.
Confusing the straights when you get a partner (because people on the ace spectrum CAN HAVE PARTNERS) and still being acespec.
Garlic bread.
Did I miss anything?
@eurydicedeservesbetter
Is that not what hot means??? Why is English confusing?-
Ace culture is spending years thinking that the word "hot" just meant "conventionally attractive"
.
if u voted for trump, I mean this in the most disrespectful way possible, I do not want anything to do with you. Not only did you vote against basic human rights and equality, you decided rascism, homophobia, islamophobia, transphobia & misogynistic behavior wasn't a deal breaker. i do not want your follow or support ! thank you.
100%
Other people having sex: 👍 have fun, stay safe, do whatever you want (with proper consent at least)
The very concept of me doing anything like that: absolutely not. Keep that far away from me. Do not think of me even.
Being a sex-positive personally-sex-repulsed ace is weird cuz like reading about sex? Awesome. Writing about sex? Not much more intolerable than writing about anything else. Sex is good. Sex is normal. Sex is only as important as you let/want it to be. Kinks are natural expressions of sexuality. Sexual purity is a scam. Bodies are nothing to be ashamed of. Sex work is no more exploitative than any other kind of labor. If you touch me I will throw up on you.
As a biromantic asexual myself, I definitely think I should be allowed into LGBTQ+ spaces. Have hear this debate here and there in the past, and the fact that anyone thinks Asexuals should be excluded still baffles me. Same vein of ridiculous as being pro-gay but anti-trans
