Ask The Aces

A blog to ask all the questions about asexuality you have

[redbeardace]

Fun group project:

Any time you run across ace hate, reply with “Haha best April Fools Joke ever!  You had me going there for a while!”

Continue doing this until October.

Dear Ace Spectrum People

I hope you’re doing well.

I hope you’re loving life, and doing the things you like.

I hope that you’ve found people who understand you, your sexuality, and the way you’ve chosen to express it.

I hope that every day you become a little more secure in who you are, and in the nature of your relationships.

I hope that you are satisfied with the way things have turned out, and that you are excited about what will happen in the future.

I hope that you will realize that there are people who appreciate and understand you, and that they will never abandon you.

I hope you realize that you are an incredible, beautiful, valid person.

But if these things haven’t happened yet, don’t worry.

They will.

Sincerely,

   A fellow Ace

Who would read a modern fantasy/mystery/adventure book series in which the main character is asexual?

When you forget your blog exists...

We are so sorry! We all forgot about this until now! We’ll try to be on more often from now on!

In other news, Mod Lukkas is turning 18 on Saturday, so shower him with puns and birthday wishes!

Daily Affirmation 411.

You don’t owe anybody about an education about your specific asexuality. You don’t owe anyone an education about asexuality in general. You are not an infomercial for asexuality. You are allowed to tell them to leave you alone.

People around: asexuals must be so lonely

People around: how can someone devote their entire lives to something OTHER than sex??

People around: what do they do with their time, even, if they're not fucking like rabbits or at least fantasizing about it

People around: i don't trust asexuals because they must be using all that free time to plot their world domination

Me, an asexual: WOWY WOW WWWWOW EVERYONE IS SO AESTHETICALLY ATTRACTIVE, EVERYONE IS SO CUTE, OH GOSH

Them: “But humans can’t be asexual….”

Me: *calls the mothership* They’re onto me. Code delta, I repeat, code delta.

Asexual Humor

Alright, here it is dearies.  Every pun/joke I could find, though some don’t apply to everyone.  Most were listed multiple times throughout Tumblr/online and I couldn’t find an origin, but if any of these are specifically ones you came up with, I apologize, and you should feel free to credit yourself.  If you know more, add on!

Puns

“I got my grade back on my sexuality test- I aced it!”

“Luckily I have an ace up my sleeve… me.”

“Instead of coming out of the closet, I came out of the deck.”

“Guess you could say I ACED that!”

“I find that ACEthetically pleasing.”

“Don’t hug me.  EmbrACE me.”

“If I went into space, I’d be an ACEtronaut.”

“I’m a member of the AVENgers.”

“I’m an agender, aromantic asexual.  I’m Triple A.”

“Asexuals are trustworthy people, we don’t f*ck with anyone.”

“Don’t be a dick, I’m not into those.”

“I literally give no f*cks.”

“If I’m not real, do I have to pay my taxes?”

“My anaconda don’t.  At all.  Please stop.”

“I don’t get it.  Literally.”

“I like my sex like I like my coffee.  I don’t like coffee.”

“My bed is where the magic happens.  And my magic, I mean sleeping.”

“I’m an asexual pirate and I’m not interested in your booty.”

“When I say that I want to Netflix and chill, I mean it literally.”

“I don’t need sex, the government f*cks me everyday.”

Jokes

“How many asexuals does it take to screw in a lightbulb? None, they let others do the screwing/None, they’d rather not.”

“One did one asexual say to the other asexual while they were in bed? Zzzzzzzzz.”

“What do you call an expert archer who is not interested in sex or romance?  An aro-ace arrow ace.”

“What do you call an asexual digging a ditch?  An ace in the hole.”

“What’s the difference between an asexual and a mobile phone?  A mobile phone can be turned on.”

“What’s an asexual’s favorite hardware store?  Ace.”

“What do you call an asexual who’s been frozen solid?  An ACEsicle.”

“How can you find an asexual with a penis in a nudist colony?  It’s not hard.”

“What brand of computer do asexuals use?  Acer.”

“How did the asexual win the tennis match?  He aced every serve.”

“Why can’t you play card games with asexuals?  They always have an ace up their sleeve.”

“Why did the asexual cross the road?  To reach the AVENue.”

“What kind of bandages do asexuals use when they sprain their wrists/ankles?  Ace.”

And the best one, which I have to credit to AVEN user glitchunter:

“What do you call a top asexual fighter pilot who lost a tennis match on the serve to an asexual, who was also a top fighter pilot?

An ace ace aced ace ace.”

[romance-repulsed-aros]

just a friendly reminder that:

there are aromantics that don’t like romance

there are aromantics that physically cannot handle romance

there are aromantics that suffer a toll on their mental health as a result of being romance repulsed

there are aromantics that genuinely feel bad about themselves because they’re romance repulsed

there are aromantics that hate romance but at the same time wish they could feel it

there are aromantics that seriously suffer from their romance repulsion, because society constantly reminds them that they need to not only feel romantic attraction, but that they have to like romance because if not they’re “not human”

romance repulsed aromantics get put down all the time, but they deserve so much more than that. they are beautiful. they are strong. they are worthy. they are amazing.

please remember that not liking romance is okay. you are okay. anyone who says otherwise can go fuck their self. be proud of who you are.

“Gays can’t raise kids, they need a male and female parent!”

“You can’t have a good relationship without sex!”

Timon and Pumbaa, two males, both raised Simba in a completely platonic, friendly relationship and he turned out damn good so fuck that.

Happy Ace Day everyone!!!! ♥♥

[hamburgergod]

to everyone who’s ever said that we don’t exist, that we are broken, that we don’t belong. to everyone with the idea of the “perfect asexual” whose asexuality is valid only when it’s not influenced by factors in our past and present lives. 

also to everyone who’s ever told me that I don’t belong in the ace community because I’m demi. You’d think with our flag representing the ace spectrum (plus purple for community), the point would’ve been made by now.

(hand drawn using my own hand as reference so I can personally flip aforementioned people off)

Happy Ace Day!

I’m going to make a list of publishers who are ace friendly. If you know any please let me know so I can add them to the list. Thanks
