Maybe the aroace character DOESN'T NEED to be a gay couple's third wheel

Am I "more aromantic than asexual" or does my aromanticism just fit more into the typical understanding of aromanticism as opposed to my asexuality which I had to doubt more than once simply because this is not how most people imagine being asexual

Don't blame horny asexual people for allosexual people being weird the average horny asexual person is well aware that asexuality is not a monolith and that many other asexual people are not horny. One more post bitching about horny asexual people and I am throwing the entire garlic bread and cake supply into a volcano.

Not non-binary but I believe in their beliefs. I'm what they call a binary trans man but like I didn't get out of the girl box that didn't fit just to get into the boy box. All of this is arbitrary.

Let's stop ourselves from oversharing on the internet with mama

The repulsed-indifferent-favorable scale is useful for talking about one's relationship to romance and sex but I think we should keep in mind that these are not always fixed and can be nuanced in some cases.

I'm not opposed to sex being included in stories cause like yeah it's a part of many people's lives, it exists. What I do find weird is when a story doesn't have any sex and people act like it's fundamentally missing something. Christ, maybe it didn't need sex and that's why there's no sex, not every story needs sex.

I love being in an aro4allo QPR. I don't feel romantic attraction, he can but he doesn't want romance and prefers whatever we have going on, it's perfect. Both of us are like "oh thank god I don't have to be in love with you" for different reasons and it works.

Third pride month since I've figured out I was aromantic and asexual!

At the end of the day, the not-like-other-girls girl and the performative male as concepts are two sides of the same coin, the coin being "nobody could possibly have interests that aren't associated with their gender for any reason other than wanting attention from the opposite sex"

Begging you to actually engage with conversations about aromanticism and asexuality outside of a fandom lense no I don't care about the character we are real life people

everyone's all about queer subtext until it's aromantic or asexual

When I first joined tumblr in 2019 I remember it being The nonbinary website. Like it was considered cool to not be a boy or a girl and to either be genderless or to have some abstract gender. And now it's like "okay but which box can I put you in? Which of the two established categories do you fit into? Are you boylike or girllike? Are you boy adjacent or girl adjacent? What type of reproductive system do you have? Are you blue nonbinary or pink nonbinary?" Nonbinary people I am so sorry

"everyone should get more aromantic" can appeal to tumblr's sensibilities but I genuinely think everyone should also get more asexual. I don't mean everyone stop having sex, what I mean is

Sex is not essential. You can live without it. Full stop.

Not having sex isn't shameful or a sign of failure. It also doesn't make anyone boring.

You are not entitled to having sex with anybody and nobody is entitled to having sex with you.

Sex is not what makes someone an adult.

Nobody's worth is defined by how much sex they have or don't have.

Sex is not equally important to everyone.

You can have fulfilling and happy relationships without sex.

You should only have sex on your own terms, not because you feel like you owe it to someone, or because you feel like you'd be incomplete without it.

Know your boundaries around sex and be firm about them. Know how to respect other people's boundaries.

The previous point also applies when it comes to discussing sex. If someone doesn't wanna talk about it or hear about it you have to back down.

Anything can be sexual but not everything has to be sexual.

Tbh me being fine with being called a they is less of a gendered thing and is more of a cultural mindset. Gendering someone when simply talking about them is fucking weeeeird it's unnecessary and I don't like iiiiiiiiiit. This is not me being transphobic it's me being hungarian👍

I think the reason I don't really buy into the garlic bread and cake space and dragons asexual aesthetic is cause there isn't really anything uniquely asexual about any of those things, a lot of people like them, but also during the phase when I thought I was bi I was really into that whole cuffed jeans tucked in shirt denim jacket button ups shoulder lenght hair sitting weird fingerguns bi aesthetic and was like yes I am bisexual because I do this even though none of these things made anyone bisexual. I wasn't bisexual, that would have required me to be attracted to people. So now that I'm asexual it's like okay so I'm asexual because I don't experience sexual attraction. There's not much else to it, I'm not sexually attracted to anybody, my personal taste is kind of irrelevant to that. I had fun with the 2019 bi aesthetic but I don't feel the need to fit into anything like that anymore because none of that has any bearing on my actual sexuality.
