This is the best thing I’ve heard all day. July 06, 2021 at 12:02AM

I think these are bonds that come with age. You do not mention your age, but...for instance, I don't think it would be easy to find like 2 college age kids who want to settle down in that fashion. However, if you are in your 30s/40s it may be easier to find a few people who also have that mindset but they need to be friendships already established, not just like...online dating for strangers, you know? A natural bond created over time but not impossible! July 06, 2021 at 12:02AM

Same, I thought I was cishet for over 17 years, and well, I wasn’t really wrong, but I had the wrong kind of het. Now I hang out in ace spaces, but not really in other lgbtq places. July 06, 2021 at 12:00AM

If you are adding on then there was no need to say “but”, that implies othering and reads as whatabout-ism, which is why I’m quoting myself when I said “this isn’t the oppression olympics”. I will agree that there are many more challenges that aspec folk face than just socially, especially intersectional struggles. July 06, 2021 at 12:00AM

I skipped Mormon class to read dumb musical girl manga at the library. July 05, 2021 at 11:55PM

Felt that. July 05, 2021 at 11:55PM

It's fine July 05, 2021 at 11:55PM

Wow I miss hugs so much. Not like a pat on the back hug but like a meaningful, full embrace hug. But only with somebody I trust. That'd be so nice, sorry if that's depressing though July 05, 2021 at 11:54PM

Matches my youth xp. But my ques on who helped make aphobia into a movement remains unanswered. There must've been someone or a group which expanded aphobia from individuals to nations. July 05, 2021 at 11:49PM

I mean, I've masturbated to Animal Planet before. July 05, 2021 at 11:49PM

Who's we? July 05, 2021 at 11:47PM

I am aesthetically attracted to many celebrities but like...weird ones? For a 30 year old women I guess. Martin Freeman. Jeff Bridges. Henry Cavill but only in The Witcher. I like Martin Freeman's bromance w Benedict in Sherlock (read a lot of MM fanfiction after watching BBC). I like how Jeff Bridges talks. And I like grumpy men who scowl a lot. Edit: Henry Cavill is not a weird one. July 05, 2021 at 11:46PM

I agree. But what historical events or people helped the aphobia along? July 05, 2021 at 11:46PM

I assume a lot of it is due to asexuality being an invisible orientation. People didn't hear about it when they were growing up, so they assume it's not a real orientation. July 05, 2021 at 11:46PM

i haven't had one ever July 05, 2021 at 11:44PM

yes July 05, 2021 at 11:43PM

I've never watched it but I feel like if I did I would be too distracted by how it's not a good example of actual relationships/most mainsteam porn websites being unethical/etc to enjoy most of it July 05, 2021 at 11:42PM

how about all 3 of them July 05, 2021 at 11:42PM

I have one July 05, 2021 at 11:40PM

I genuinely used to think that this was an attorney that is ace and is for the aces. July 05, 2021 at 11:37PM

Alright. Whatever you turn out to be, I support you July 05, 2021 at 11:33PM

I read about that but I'm not entirely sure where I stand I guess I just want a bit of room to understand and experiment with my sexuality before I make a final decision. At least then I will feel more sure and fulfilled with myself. July 05, 2021 at 11:33PM

I like hugs. They're warm and make me feel loved July 05, 2021 at 11:32PM
