I’m the asexual who was sent to conversion therapy as a young teen.

I’m the asexual who thought they were messed up, and broken, and all alone.

I’m the asexual who was told by people who I thought were my friends that God didn’t approve of my ‘alternative’ lifestyle.

I’m the asexual who felt lost in the clothing isles because I didn’t want to look ‘sexy’.

I’m the asexual that struggles with depression, fear, and inadequacy.

I’m the asexual that is being blocked off from resources. Or that you want out of the LGBTQ+ community.

I’m the asexual who is being negatively affected by the ace discourse.

I’m the asexual facing erasure, invalidation, and hate.

Please consider this.

Aphobia exists.

If you don’t believe it does then you may very well be contributing to it.

Please think of the people you are effecting.

Be kind.

Be compassionate.

Please.

Don’t read the reblogs. Christ.

“Demisexuality does not refer to the active restraint or repression of sexual desires or actions.”

Being demisexual means you genuinely can’t comprehend why people cheat on their partners in movies. Or struggle being faithful….

Me: “I generally don’t enjoy the act of, or want sex. It hurts and I feel used. I would rather hold your hand and sit beside you.”

Shouting exclusionist: “YEAH BUT SEX HURTS FOR EVERY WOMAN YOU’RE NOT SPECIAL.”

I’ve never experienced oppression or discrimination by calling myself bisexual.

But I have been bullied, verbally abused, and called a freak because of my asexuality.

It’s incredibly rare that someone chooses to be in a relationship that doesn’t involve sex. We are rejected by our partners & love interests & even by the LGBT community, when all we asked from them was acceptance. Even if you’re LGBT, you’re expected to have sexual relationships with someone.

Regardless, we are deserving of romantic connection & love. It can be lonely, being excluded from relationships, the lgbt community. Being called “broken” and “medically abnormal”.

So don’t you dare tell me asexuals aren’t marginalised .

2 Asexual ‘friends with benefits’ live together & get married for tax purposes.

My son, Thomas, says Asexual Rights

Currently being asexual and singing songs about sex because i love irony

Everyone irl is talking about how many kids they want but all I want in life are those car stickers that represent family members but instead of it being me, my spouse, and my kids, I want it to be me and just a ton of dogs. Dream big, kids

To all my neurodiverse/mentally ill/traumatised asexuals and or aromatics:

You’re still valid. I love you. Your sexuality is valid despite your circumstances.

Can some wonderful ace/aro person please clarify to me that asexual means not feeling sexual attraction but it’s perfectly valid to be ace and also occasionally want to engage in sexual behaviours? Because that’s the only thing stopping me from realising I’m asexual

Disclaimer that you’re valid af if you’re sex repulsed or not and I love you

When a thotbot gets into your DMs and tries to scam you of your money promising to cam for you but you’re ace af

“Why do girls go for all the assholes?”

The secret is, some girls are asexual and/or aromantic, and since we’re attracted to the letter ‘a’ and ‘asshole’ starts with ‘a’… hoo mama how could we NOT

Sure, sex and romance is fine and stuff but have you ever heard the smooth smooth sound of a French horn?

asexual-society:

Do I detect an aromantic?

Well, it is their fault for being out of uniform

As I always say, hydration beats copulation!

I had a dream that I bought a pack of cards with only aces in it so whenever I was asked about my sexuality I could could just whip one of them out and uncomfortably fast walk out of there.

Moral of story: I can actually make my dreams come true for less than $9

Quick question

Do asexual Canadians call themselves ehsexuals?

Well duh, what else would it be used for?

forevertrueblue:

Bert and Ernie have been written as a gay couple, but Sesame Workshop has confirmed Muppets aren’t sexual. Based on this evidence, we can conclude that the two of them are asexuals in a homoromantic relationship. In this essay I will

Hot diggity dog, more aces on my blog

But I’ll be a great platonic friend

It’s time to talk about the real ace issues.
