HAPPY HALLOWEEN/ACE WEEK! How does one celebrate this mash up? Dress up as yourself and scare people with some personal shit instead of ghost stories, of course! I’m gonna preface my ramble by asking you to swipe right if you want info on what it means when someone says they’re a shade of ace (asexual, demi, or grey).
As you may know, I’m a demisexual, and I saw somewhere this year’s #aceweek slogan is “this is what ace looks like”. So I figured I better represent my truth, as it is very niche. You might think “Holy crap I don’t need to know what you do in your spare time”, and that’s fine, but I’m not posting this for you. I’m posting this mostly so any closeted or confused people can see LGBT+ comes in all shapes and sizes and that’s okay. It doesn’t matter if other people can’t wrap their heads around It. In my case some can’t grasp that kink and sexuality are not mutually exclusive, but actually a lot of ace people are big fans. In fact it completely changed my perspective on my own preferences, and helped me feel empowered by my differences, not limited. Which is the other reason I’m sharing this, so now I can put all my confusion and self-hatred from last year’s ace week behind me. When @bitchpudding_ did my ace flag makeup and hair for these photos, I looked in the mirror and almost cried the damn makeup away. I seriously never thought I’d get to a point where I’d look in a mirror and go Fuck. Yes. This is me. I’m so happy with who I am now.
On that note, thank you to @bitchpudding_ not just for doing my makeup and such, and help with modelling But also for being the patient, understanding, and encouraging ally every person with LGBT+ friends should aspire to be
Thank you to anyone who read this far. Be brave, be who you are no matter how you are.
