im so pissed off. a magazine i liked wrote an article about asexuality that was so misinformed and disrespectful

it only asked for one person’s opinion, who wasnt even asexual themself. it called asexuality a “choice” and a “lifestyle”, and described asexual people as soft little kids who saw sex as dirty and disgusting. it literally said that asexuality wasnt a sexual orientation at all.

it even had the sentence “we all have asexual days when we just dont feel like having sex”

and they didnt even have a comment section, so i couldnt correct them.

fuck it, people. im so mad.

thing is, no matter which character you hc as aspec, aphobes will always find a reason to make it look like you are an awful person for hc them as such

asexual rant

( not hp related )

you know what really pisses me off ? ace people work fucking hard to prove themselves “”“worthy”“” of the lgbtqia+ community bc we know that the exclusionists are literally waiting for one of us to do sth vaguely problematic, and then pretend all aces feel that way and are awful.

we constantly try ( or at least the greatest part of us ) to prove that we care about the allosexual queer people’s problems and that we fight alongside them on every fucking point. we are fucking vocal and helping and do our best for every single letter of the acronym.

and what do we get back ?

spoiler alert : nothing.

discourse aside, allo queers dont acnowledge or do shit about asexual issues. i have never seen a single allo talking about the terrible ace rep in the media, the conversion therapies or the corrective rape and abuse.

y’all pretend to believe aces are part of the community then do fucking nothing to act as if we are.

if an asexual person talks about their issue as an asexual people, a lot of people will reduce or ignore their experience, inclusionists or not.

so a good advice for all the allo inclusionist out there : IF YOU THINK ACE PEOPLE ARE LGBTQIA THEN ACT LIKE IT.
