facts about asexuality since some people still see it as a black and white thing

ASEXUALITY IS A SPECTRUM not every ace person will have the same views on sex and sexual media

ace people can still masterbate and get horny, some of us don’t want to be involved in the act of sex but are just okay with preforming self pleasure

asexual people can still have sex, like i said it’s a spectrum. Demisexual people are only comfortable having sex with someone they have both a platonic and romantic relationship with and Fraysexual only have sexual attraction to those they don’t know very well

komodo dragons, sharks, starfish, and snails are known for reproducing asexually

not every asexual person is aromantic and not every aromantic person is asexual

asexual people can still experience romantic attraction, for some reason, aromantics and asexuals are often seen as the same when they’re not

asexuality is not a new term, we’ve always been here. it was first recognized in the late nineteenth century, but that doesn’t mean it never existed before that time

NOT EVERY ACE PERSON HAS SEXUAL TRAUMA. this is a big one. some of us just don’t like sex or the idea of sex and that’s okay :)

hope this was somewhat educational to some allosexual people who are still confused about us and i hope you enjoyed these facts!

feel free to reblog and add to these if you wish ^^

Spoiler: there aint anyone im attracted to

I am the perfect combination that is aroace, ugly and some kind of genderqueer. Mankind doesn't wanna touch me with a 10ft pole. I live a good life . Y'all wish you had my level of non appeal

Aroace papyrus flag I made while at the hairdresser

(i have redish hair now lol)

Inspired by the sans aroace flag made by marsh_ber on TikTok

the art is taken from the official undertale sticker vol 2 and vol 3

i want ppl to start using platonic like how they do romantic

"Your so sweet! Thats so platonic of you!" And not have it be like "OH YA NOO, were definitely not romantic, that'd be gross" but in a way of like, genuine apritiation and sweetness of how stuff like "thats so romantic" sounds <2

I’m honestly not sure what hot is, like I know what I think is aesthetically attractive, and I can recognise conventionally attractive people but what is hot? Like what classes as hot? Muscles? Makeup? Is there like a list?

Hellow people, mutuals and strangers 👋🏽

Today is the day. Thank you so much to all of you who answered my posts and reassured me during this internal conflict.

So yeah. I will now start identifying as arospec too.

And if it somehow changes, we'll see! 🖤💚

Hi can we get a simple poll running but

have you EVER met a fellow arospec person irl?? Im really just frustrated now i want them numbers to see if it's just me or, omg, is there a social or cultural factor that has some correlation with having people openly say theyre aro?? because i swear to god i havent met an aro irl much less find someone who doesn't need me to define and explain myself like im a fugitive under interrogation

Anyway so have you met an aro IRL?

Thank you so much, im really just so freaking frustrated

I haven’t met one either, so I’d be interested to see this as well :)

“there is no straight explanation for this” neither is there a gay one. there is however an aromantic one

fun fact (not fun at all fact actually) :

aromanticism and asexuality are still treated as issues to be fixed in most therapy settings, at least in the western psychiatric institution. i cannot fucking mention my aromanticism or asexuality to a therapist or it’ll immediately become their primary concern and goal to fix. whether or not i have a partner/am trying to have a partner is actively being used as an indicator of my wellness, regardless of if i WANT one. i cannot have access to needed mental health ressources because of fear of conversion therapy. aro and/or ace conversion therapy is the norm in most psychiatric institutions and we are getting told by the rest of the queer community that our oppression isnt real and that there is no link between our struggles and theirs.
