Feel free to add your favorite race below if I did not have space to add it! Ooo and if you have a favorite homebrew race you can add that too!

"but aroaces can still feel lo-" shut up. it doesn't matter if we can feel love or not. why is this always your defense to why aroaces should be valid? it gets even worse with alloaces and alloaros. people constantly saying "aces can still have sex!!" and "aros can still have love and have partners!!" YES, they can, but you aren't bringing that up just to bring awareness towards aroaces. No, you are using that fact as a way to ignore and condemn the part that makes us aroace; the lack of attraction. I'm sick and tired of seeing aces and aros have to defend themselves by bringing up all the other ways they can love. Why can't we for once celebrate the parts of us that DON'T love?

You know, here’s my problem with shipping Alastor.

Yes, I know aromantic people can date.

Yes, I know asexuals can have sex.

But you don’t have to be a detective to know that he’s not the type for either.

To other sex-repulsed people: Please understand that your repulsion towards sex is your own issue to deal with. Understand that sex is important to a lot of people (you don't have to understand why, just simply that it is), and understand that it's not okay to treat sex as a bad thing simply because it exists and you're repulsed towards it.

It's completely fine to vent about your friend talking in great depth about their sex life when it repulses you (and maybe tell them that it makes you uncomfortable and you don't want to hear about it) or for any reason for that matter, but don't talk about how much you hate sex in front of the people who find it a positive thing because you'll just end up being seen as someone who kills the fun. It doesn't seem fair, I know, but there are lots of places you can talk about this without upsetting people who enjoy it.

And to non-sex-repulsed people: Please understand that we need a space to air our repulsion to sex. If anything we say isn't directly aimed towards you specifically and it upsets you, then maybe consider that this space just isn't for you. Not everyone has the same positive feelings towards sex that you do, and we have just as much right to talk about how we dislike sex as you have to talk about how much you like sex.

And everyone needs to understand that it's possible to have negative feelings about sex —and to talk about these feelings— without it automatically being sex negativity.

Hey guys I love polyam representation as much if not more than the next guy but why didn't they make Jughead the repulsed aroace that he is why didn't they make Jughead the repulsed aroace that he is why didn't they make Jughead the repulsed aroace that he is why didn't they make Jughead the repulsed aroace that he is why didn't they make Jughead the repulsed aroace that he is why didn't they make Jughead the repulsed aroace that he is

My problem isn't that I wanna be treated terribly differently cause I'm asexual

I just don't want people to expect that I'm eventually gonna have sex and "grow up". Because I won't.

I've known my sexuality for 4 years now, and just cause I actually researched it. (Crap, i remember when I was like 8 and read about Michael Jackson possibly being asexual and wishing so bad I were asexual too)

No, i do not like when people tell me I'm still too innocent to catch your dirty jokes. Damn, I've read things worse than you could ever imagine, and my asexuality connected with thinking HOW DID YOU SEXUALISE THIS THING THIS TIME (which takes time, allos are hard to decipher)

I do not like being told "you'll understand someday". No I will the fuck not.

I'm not a kid, I'm asexual.

I don't like feeling that I'm invisible to you. Things don't need to change, you don't need to be cautious around me. Just acknowledge me and stop judging.

current mood is repulsed aroace pissed off at sexualization of my favourite characters when I was just trying to absorb some content about them and their personalities/aesthetics instead of just seeing a bunch of posts about them being thirsted over

Feel free to tag your gender identity if you would like or if I forgot to list it!

Happy Ace Week to all my fellow Aces, here is some garlic bread

I was today years old when I learned that there's an actual term for sex-repulsed asexual-

It's Apothisexual!

I like the ace flag's colors more though- ^^

Asking myself "do I really want a romantic relationship, or have I been conditioned to 'want' one to 'be happy'?" really helps with a bunch of stress in my mind.

I don't want a romantic relationship; I'm happy with just my friends and family. But, people have decided that the only way to be happy is to have a committed relationship with someone.

That's not how I want my life to be.

I'm okay with no romance, I'm okay with no sex, and I'm okay with my life.

I don't need "fixing".

[ * Hi hello, quick PSA, we love aros and aces in this blog, anywhere in the spectrum, and their experiences are all valid as well as varied ]

[ * excuse potential mistakes in wording and grammar because it's 2 am here ]

If you try to use ‘microlabels’ as a gotcha to try and justify the erasure of asexual and aromantic characters / representation, I’m just throwing you off the bridge at this point.

“But!1!1!1!! Aces can love and have sex! Aros can date!1!1!” Shut up. Not everything is about YOU.

Repulsed aromantics and asexuals deserve some real respect after all of this. Repulsed aplatonics as well. Don’t you dare try to get away with the erasure of these identities under the guise of it being a ‘spectrum’ (which you just so happen to know NOTHING about, and are only using as a scapegoat for your poorly disguised aphobia)!

Stop using conversion therapy rhetoric by telling us that we ‘might meet the right person’! Stop getting pissy when you see somebody say they find sex, romance, or platonic affection gross or weird or strange. Fuck you. The asexual, aromantic, and aplatonic communities owe you NOTHING.

No bc radioapple is actually so weird like........ what????? Not only because Alastor is aroace and very obviously romance- and sex-repulsed + non amorous but also because of their age difference. Like who thought "as old as time itself" x "witnessed the start of the holocaust" is appropriate????
