My friend @shellywith2ls found this on Pinterest during our homeroom today, and when she showed me I started dying laughing.
I asked her to send it to me and she just saved the photo and texted it to me, so I can’t properly credit the person who made this. If you see this, hi, I love this, let me know so I can properly credit you 🙃

What happens with aroace coded characters in fandoms that really annoys me:
Frodo Baggins: never involved in a relationship, loves his friends — fandom: he’s so in love with Sam, he even lets him and his family live with him
Bilbo Baggins: never married, dedicates his life to writing, adopts Frodo and loves him like a son — fandom: I ship him with Thorin so much
Sherlock Holmes: dedicated his life to his work, very loyal to his friends, never married or had a real relationship — fandom: he’s in love with Irene! He’s in love with John!
Aziraphale & Crowley: canonically ace according to the book, poster characters for a qpr — fandom: why don’t they just f**k? Why don’t they just k**s? This is queerbaiting!
There are probably more examples because it’s definitely a pattern.

Wish more people understood the difference between "shipping this aro character because i want to explore their aromanticism and where they stand in the spectrum" and "shipping this aro character because i don't care about their orientation".

Signs from when I was younger that maybe kinda sorta should've clued me in on that I'm maybe not as allo as many have anticipated (mayhaps):
• Despite my mother suggesting otherwise, I was able to 'choose' my crushes
• Despite *that,* any option in kiss, marry, kill (or any other variation of it) was just... Wrong
• Any talk of romance and sex outside of a fictional context, and especially if it involved me, felt like a survival scenario
• The sweet childhood memories of me trying to force myself to be attracted to fictional characters (and it 'working')
• The shock and horror I felt when a friend of mine called Scar from The Lion King hot (like, he's not even anthro?)
• The concept of marriage sounding like a survival scenario past the wedding party
•A survival scenario that I, in fact, would consider death over then to even bother actually participating in. Not outright choose it, but I wouldn't rule it out
• Legit cannot (and still can't) fathom what my ideal partner would be (I just listed traits I would want in a buddy ol' pal)
• The reasoning for identifying as pan ("all genders make me feel the same way, so that means I'm attracted to all genders")
• Before that I waited for my first crush to reveal my orientation like sexualities are some box opening
• I AM A CHILD OF GOD, AND THUS CANNOT COMMIT TO DISTRACTIONS FROM OUR LORD'S MESSAGE (exceptions may apply)/hj

I just know the lgb will be up in arms and come at me with their pitch-knife forks if i tell them that i would genuinely be more accepted as a lesbian than as an aroace

Actually, I was just thinking about it again, and now I'm curious. For arospec/acespec people:
As usual, please reblog for a larger sample!

Hey to everyone who needs to hear this.
You are welcome here. You are doing amazing. Your identity is yours and no one else can tell you what you are. If you say you’re a boy you’re a boy. If you say you’re a girl you’re a girl. If you say you’re non binary you’re non binary.
Your sexuality is yours and can’t be defined by anyone but yourself. If you like men that’s great. If you like women that’s great. If you like both that’s great. If you don’t want a relationship either sexual or romantic that’s great. You like who you like don’t let anyone invalidate those feelings
You are awesome. You deserve all the love and support you get.
From one weirdo on the internet to another.

Saying that Aro’s lack something is like saying that the night is lacking the sun, ignoring the beauty of the moon, the stars, constellations and galaxies.
Romantic love shines so bright for alloromantic people that they sometimes are blind to the beauty of friendship, platonic connections, and the bonds of community.

I personally do ship house and Wilson just because haha gay
But as an pleasantly aromatic aromantic I do also like the idea that their friendship just transcends the standard friendship paradigm without being inherently romantic, and that you can be incredibly close to someone without wanting to shag/marry them. There's beauty in friendship that I think house did a better job of exploring than the beauty in a romantic relationship
