alloace resources?

There isn't much here because this is another less known orientation, but i added all of the ones i could find! i tried to make sure there's at least one of everything, i couldn't find a divider though besides the one at the end.

romance is boring? nah, not for me. I LOVE romance. I love fictional romance and I really want to be in relationship in the future. sex is just not necessary for me.

It sucks how little alloace positivity stuff there is to reblog. Even most posts under the alloace tag talk more about other identities than about being alloace!

And under the general asexuality tags? Most stuff is either:

Explicitly about aromanticism/aroaceness

Technically only about asexuality, but implicitly about aroaceness

Only about asexuality, but alloaces, romantic attraction or relationships are not mentioned anywhere, and therefore they're not alloace positivity posts

It brings me such joy :] Happy Pride Month

Can we be nicer to people who are on the aro/ace spectrum who aren’t aroace please? Aroallos and alloaces and aplatonic folk and cupioromantics and those who want queerplatonic relationships and those who don’t and aros who date and aces who have sex and people who don’t fall on the “sex-favourable to sex-repulsed” line because they feel like it doesn’t describe them well enough and greyromantics and demisexuals and those in polycules and selfshipping communities and those who fight for aro/ace visibility and those who don’t and those who haven’t fully come to terms with their identity yet and this community is such a beautiful place can we see it beyond “uwu innocent aroace doesn’t know what sex is” please god I am begging you

Seriously though, stop tagging posts that are about asexuality with romantic attraction as 'aroace'. Our romantic attraction isn't another form of platonic attraction, it's romantic attraction. Our romantic relationships are not QPRs, they're romances. We already know what platonic attraction is, we already experience and have platonic love (if we're not aplatonic) and we already talk about the importance of friendship. Let us talk about our romantic desires, especially when some us are oppressed for having them. It's especially worse for non conforming alloaces, to call our love for the same gender friendship, to blatantly erase our homoromanticism, biromanticism and panromanticism by calling us aro. We're not aro! It's also just rude. Unless you're an oriented aroace, alloace posts are not about aromanticism. The term is ALLO + ROMANTIC asexual for a reason!

I ❤️ being alloace actually. There's a strange stereotype in fandoms that ace is just a filler word for aroace. "You can't ship them! They're ace!!" Yeah well they didn't necessarily say AROace. Asexual ≠ aromantic.

To clarify, I'm not at ALL trying to deprioritize or erase people who don't wish for sex OR romance, I just find the idea of not wanting aces specifically in romantic scenarios kinda funny.
