Asexual Historical Figures and Modern Celebrities

"I guess you get a lot done when you aren't looking for sex..." -an allo upon seeing my preliminary list. This is a blog to celebrate asexuals through time and space, across history and today. This blog is for positivity and inspiration NOT to start or continue the """"""discourse"""""". This is a safe and fun place for aces (and aros too!) (this blog is run by an aroace)

being nonbinary and a fan of non-human creatures isn’t easy. like i’m constantly struggling with the fact that i’m both like “i wish there was more enby representation in humans” and “i’m the same gender as mewtwo and that fucking rips”

[ckret2]

the tension between “representing NBs only as nonhuman characters is dehumanizing and othering” and “but monsters, aliens, and robots are so much cooler than humans”

I meant to Reblog this to my personal blog (like the other two posts) but this one can stay because I think a lot of aces have this feel.

Hey, so, Italian readers, what do you recommend I do? Specifically I have 10 days and I am going to Rome, Florence, and Venice. If you are from or near those cities what shouldn't I miss? Especially considering I am a giant history nerd and have a limited amount of time per city. Any ideas are extremely welcome, thanks!

[famous-aces]

Hiatus!

I am going to Italy next week and I doubt I am going to be paying much attention to Tumblr. I will be back with more famous aspecs, but my vacation is gonna be a detox from Tumblr too. I will probably set a queue before I leave but odds are I am not going to deal with anything else. See you in early October!

It’s a Pastel Pride Unicorn  ✩°｡⋆⸜(ू｡•ω•｡)!! I have it in the most common pride flags at the moment, but I’m definitely open to adding some more based on other pride flags!

⬇⬇⬇ Check out my designs below ⬇⬇⬇

Gay Pride Unicorn / Bi Pride Unicorn / Trans Pride Unicorn / Pan Pride Unicorn / Lesbian Pride Unicorn / Ace Pride Unicorn / Aro Pride Unicorn

₍₍ (ง ˙ω˙)ว ⁾⁾ promoting yourself is weird but I’d really appreciate reblogs <3 Thanks for reading! Hope ya like my designs!

In solidarity, I made some Pride crystals. I tried to cover some of the major ones I’ve seen. You’re totally welcome to save the ones I made to your computer for your own personal use, or if you’d like to make your own with your preferred colors and your flag you can download the file from my Gumroad. Just enter a “0″ and you can download it for free and personalize it as much as you like- and feel free to reblog this with your own image + added modifications to anyone else who may want to use them: https://gumroad.com/l/XIuXf

I’m proud to be Bisexual, though it’s only been a handful of years since I came into acceptance of that, and even more recent since I’ve become more open about it. Know that through all the hardship and hopelessness, you matter. You are not broken, you are valued, and you are wonderful.

I reblogged a post of helpful links and sources if you want to help or need support just below this one, and you can always send me an ask if you need. Keep fighting the good fight ❤

EDIT:: Someone informed me that the Intersex flag I made before is not the accepted flag, so I read up and made a new one ❤ I apologize for not doing extensive research and realizing this mistake sooner, I hope the new one is an improvement. I was going to take the first one I made down, but I also read that there are some members of the Intersex community who feel most comfortable using it. So for now, unless requested otherwise, I’ll leave it up.

Have I reblogged this before? Who cares! Pretty shinies!

Temple Grandin

Who: Mary Temple Grandin

What: Professor of Animal Science, Consultant, and Autism Activist

When: August 29, 1947 - Present

Grandin is best known for her help in and promotion of the Autism community and for her work in animal science, welfare, and the pursuit of ethics in the meat industry. One of the first widely regarded Autistic individuals and the inventor of the Hug Machine. In 2010 she was listed by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world, listed under the “heroes” category.

My Cold War presentation should be done soon. Then we can get back to the new stuff. I promise I will at least try to have something new queued before I go on vacation in a week. Try is the key word. No promises I can do it, but I will try.

[fuckyeahasexual]

I keep seeing people saying "allosexual" shames gay people, but honestly it reminds me of the term "goyish", which describes non-Jewish people. Just because it covers other religious/ethnic minorities who are also oppressed doesn't mean it's an anti-Muslim or anti-Black (not that there aren't Jewish Black people, just like there are ace gay people!) or whatever slur. It's just a useful term. Sincerely, an allo(?) Jew
