#ace hate

y'all, how do you deal with aphobic people?

I just went through the most exhausting debate online. It was my fault, I should’ve just blocked all of them from the beginning.

I swear if I get one more reply, I’m deleting that comment altogether.

Long story short, someone replied to a comment of mine with “maybe they have seggs every night”. (You don’t need the context, just that.)

To which I replied with, “every night? yikes”

Now a person replied to that with, “why yikes?”

And I said, “well that’s gotta hurt, right? give you rashes or smth?”

And they were like, “nope. what kind of seggs have you had that gave you a rash?”

Naturally, I responded with, “oh no, I’m asexual so no smex for me, I was just making an assumption that sounds logical to me”

And this as*hole of a person says, “plenty of asexuals have seggs, don’t use that excuse”

Which bewildered me to no bounds. I said, “huh? Yeah I already know that some asexuals have seggs? That’s not the point here”

After that, it was basically me and them going back and forth the same bullsh¡t, other people joining in.

That first person kept saying that I shouldn’t say “I’m sex-repulsed because I’m ace”, when I never said that. And even if I did, so what? I would’ve probably had seggs if I hadn’t found out I’m asexual so there’s definitely a correlation there.

Was I in the wrong? Is it illegal for me to say that seggs is overrated and gross to me? Should I just keep my mouth shut and only talk freely in our safe spaces instead?
