/u/anony-mous-boi on Should Asexuality Be Part Of the LGBTQ+ Community?

My cousin (a bit homophobic, keep in mind) says that she supports aros and aces, but not the LGBTQ community. Because "the community goes against her beliefs, and if aros and aces were part of it, she would have to support part of them". (I can't remember her exact words). I argued that because we don't feel attraction to the opposite gender, we would be the 'Q' or the 'A'. She stays in her opinion. August 30, 2020 at 12:02AM

/u/PixelSox on I saw this originally on tumblr and thought I'd share it with you guys

I wonder... Dyu think that they just don't hear it? Like they're completely deaf specifically to country music... and they just pretend like they can hear it so people will stop questioning them? August 29, 2020 at 11:59PM

That's a great way to explain it! Thanks! August 29, 2020 at 11:59PM

/u/arandomhuman726 on Should Asexuality Be Part Of the LGBTQ+ Community?

As a heteroromantic asexual I've most commonly heard that because I'm romantically attracted to the opposite sex I'm not classed as LGBTQ+ I understand their view point but here is how I see it: You are not LGBT if your are ALL 3 of these things, heteroromantic, heterosexual and cisgender. Heteroromantic asexuals like myself are not heterosexual and asexual; that's literally impossible. -In the full LGBTQ acronym asexual is included. LGBTQIA+ I hope this makes sense and I hope this helps :) August 29, 2020 at 11:56PM

/u/anony-mous-boi on Am I a valid asexual

You’re lookin real sexy in them 6 T-shirts and 3 sweatpants. That scarf is just growls I wanna put another one on yo- I literally cannot stop laughing😂 August 29, 2020 at 11:53PM

/u/Irohs_tea on I found out my friend is ace but they don't know I know

True. Plus they've only realised themselves ab 2 months ago. I'll think more on this and try not to rush things. Do you think maybe even just subtly hinting that I know would be a good idea. Like me talking about asexuality in our friend group in a way that shows I accept it, (it wouldn't be too unusual because we talk about the lgbtq community sometimes.) Not in a way where its blatantly obvious that I know. More to help them feel like its safe for them and not have to feel like they are pretending to be someone who they are not so they can come out in their own time. August 29, 2020 at 11:51PM

/u/frustr8tion on Am I a valid asexual

You weren't really making that suggestion, just questioning. No offence taken. When people who should know much better say that shit though it annoys me. Maybe aego. I don't know enough about that to make a judgement on it, tbh. You could just be nervous about it. I have a bit of an eating disorder. Sometimes I watch cooking shows. Sometimes I'm starving whilst doing so but I hold myself back for whatever reason. Usually to feel in control or because of feelings of unworthiness. Maybe it's something like that. There are some people I find almost find too hot to approach. Like if I asked them out and got rejected it'd be too much. So I hang onto the maybe so I never have to face the rejection, but never truly try to connect with them either. August 29, 2020 at 11:50PM

/u/some_strange_circus on When did y’all figure out you were ace?

I identified as demisexual for several years while I was in a long-term relationship. After that relationship ended, I spent a few years single and realized I didn't miss sex even a little bit, did some more soul-searching and realized I'm actually asexual. August 29, 2020 at 11:48PM

/u/ragtimeholly on Am I a valid asexual

if you don't feel sexual attraction at all you are asexual. If you feel it very rarely, you are greysexual. If you only experience it after developing a strong emotional bond, you are demisexual. Some greys and demis only feel it like once or twice in their lives, whereas with my allo friends it can be anywhere from daily to more like once / twice a month depending on the person. Also depending on the person is the importance of sex in their lives. I know some allos that have sex with their partners more rarely and some more frequently. It's all about individual preferences - for aces as well, since some of us are sex-favorable/indifferent and some are averse/repulsed. As someone else mentioned, finding ppl aesthetically attractive but not wanting to bang them is very normal for allosexuals AND asexuals as well. Here's a doc with more info but only you can actually know if you're asexual/a-spec, nobody here can say for you : ) We're just here for support if you...

/u/Irohs_tea on I found out my friend is ace but they don't know I know

Ye it is something to consider. Im not sure how I'm gonna explain that to them but I'll think more ab that August 29, 2020 at 11:46PM

/u/DanDanDenpa on Am I a valid asexual

Yeah allosexuals do consider who to have sex with sorry for that . But for me it's more of fantasizing and not really doing it (is it the aegosexual experience?) If ever this hot person walked up to me irl and asked me to have sex, I would probably reject them lol. Hope I didn't offend you by my ignorance. August 29, 2020 at 11:45PM

/u/stitchitch on I found out my friend is ace but they don't know I know

Gotcha. No worries i don't nned to know. But it's something ro consider August 29, 2020 at 11:44PM

/u/Irohs_tea on I found out my friend is ace but they don't know I know

Ahh that's a somewhat complicated story. I can dm you if you want. I can't say here because then they'll know it's me August 29, 2020 at 11:43PM

/u/DanDanDenpa on Am I a valid asexual

Thanks!! August 29, 2020 at 11:41PM

/u/Irohs_tea on I found out my friend is ace but they don't know I know

I'm somewhat similar to that. If it's relevant I'd mention I'm bi. And if it's someone I'm close with who doesn't know I'd bring it up so they won't be like oh when I mention crushes of both genders. I guess for someone who's ace it's more complicated to explain because people unfortunately aren't taught about it as much August 29, 2020 at 11:40PM
