Y'all, it’s an app specifically for ace people.

They have so many choices in terms of romantic orientation, too!

It’s available on android (and probably iOS too) under the name ACEapp.

[pokeplush-remade]

hey why does this give options for being interested in “male female transgender” and “androromantic” and “gynoromantic” and fucking “transromantic” what the fuck? what the fuck? what the f

[trans-girl-nausicaa]

“male, female, transgender”

“transromantic”

Cool! So y'all are just totally fine with chasers???????

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[boy-and-girl-crazy123456]

why is there like a million shades of ace but y’all seriously went for that “male/female/transgender” route

[loschertzken]

I can’t believe you guys are seriously assuming that ace people, who in this case are most likely trans, nonbinary themselves, are fetishizing other trans, nonbinary, aces. Instead of, you know, seeing this as a good way for people who aren’t interested in having sex, to find other people who aren’t interested in saving sex, who share their gender identity. What a novel concept.

You’re also having issues with people being attracted to femininity like that isn’t a real thing. That’s actually a more valid attraction that saying “I’m attracted to women” and if you’re a nonbinary person, what does “homosexual” even mean what doesn’t “heterosexual” even mean. If you’re a nonbinary person presenting more fem and you’re attracted to people both cis and nonbinary who also present femininely you can’t say you’re heterosexual or homosexual or pansexual or anything so gynoromantic.

Honestly what the fuck you guys.

[discoursedumpster]

THIS.

[palpablenotion]

Um… that isn’t what I see on the app

To summarize, no transromantic. Can select nonbianry for your gender. Can select you’re interested in non binary or none. It used polyamory not polygamy.

[fumbledeegrumble]

Reblogging for the updated version, so exclusionists can’t keep spreading around the old version and pretending nothing has changed

[loxia-contorta]

Also uh even if it really was that shitty, why the fuck is that the responsibility of anyone but the creator? Like why is the entire ace community assumed to have like created this and approve of it. Stop acting like every ace person is the same you fucking assholes.

I've been seeing so many posts and people saying that asexuality isn't a sexuality and I'm starting to auestion it myself??

No it’s definitely a sexuality. To say otherwise would mean aromantic asexuals don’t have a sexuality. 

[kameratar]

i mean it technically isn’t though? i would say that it is by the definition many people use for what sexuality is..

but asexuality could easily be argued to not be a sexuality, but rather the spectrum of not having a sexuality. but in terms of it being a sexual orientation i would say it’s quite indisputable.

i feel it’s similar to, say being agender.. being agender is a gender identity/alignment, but i feel it’d be odd to say it’s a gender? maybe it isn’t.

anyway though, one can be asexual, asexuality is most indisputably a thing. it’s a very common identity, and being asexual is a completely normal thing.. independent of if you would could it a sexuality or not..

i personally would almost argue that saying it isn’t, would almost be a bit more of an inclusive way of talking? hence why i personally use the term orientation.

[meyerlansky]

one asexual person’s opinion here, but for me the problem is that “asexuality TECHNICALLY isn’t a sexuality” is a tactic aphobes use to justify denying ace people access to/support from queer spaces, so it’s… the opposite of more inclusive. i’ve seen more than a few ~discourse~ posts saying asexuality [and aromanticism for that matter] is a “modifier” and therefore not a real sexuality, therefore asexuality is not inherently queer and therefore gatekeeping is required to keep the community safe from heteroromantic asexuals, who by this shitty logic are actually straight. so, in my view, it definitely isn’t more inclusive to say asexuality isn’t a sexuality in and of itself. it’s kind of like… i don’t know how to explain this well, and this is going to be a flawed metaphor no matter what, but because the discourse has such an obsession with labels and a lot of the aphobes out there also reject queer as an umbrella term OR independent identity, sexuality is like a survey where you can’t leave any questions blank, so the question on it is “what is your sexuality” and the hypothetical list of selections is as inclusive as possible, including a “none” checkbox. checking off that box is still a selection, even though it’s technically nothing. the absence of something is a something in and of itself. the absence is a thing.

[lesbianpeachs]

ohmygod remember that time (mostly) aphobes attacked a post for including the genderqueer flag when the fuckin hetero flag was on there

yES I was in complete disbelief. The genderqueer flag inclusion pissed them off MORE than the straight flag inclusion and if that doesn’t sum exclusionists nothing does

Shoutout to every enby who’s sick of being forced to use sga, especially bi/pan enbies who are told they need to be sga to be bi/pan

[remade35567643234543]

anyway i hate how tumblr is now only focusing on wlw and mlm 

so to NB people with queer attractions: 

i love you 

you are not “basically straight” 

you are awesome

you don’t have to fit into a binary box for your attractions to be queer and valid

it’s ok if you’re still learning to love yourself because it’s hard

regardless of your appearance you are valid and your attractions and how you label them are valid

stay hydrated as best you can 

regardless of whether you lean masc, femme, in between, whatever other direction you want, or don’t have a direction at all, you are valid and your attractions and how you label them are valid

i hope you find money on the sidewalk and your favorite candy is on sale

i hope you get to pet a cute dog next time you go out

i’ll fight anyone who gives you shit

[regphobic-giratina]

If your aroness or aceness stems from dysphoria, you’re a valid aro or ace.

If your aroness or aceness stems from past trauma, you’re a valid aro or ace.

If your aroness or aceness is an integral part of who you are as a person, you’re a valid aro or ace.

If you have no idea what your aroness or aceness comes from, you’re a valid aro or ace.

I’m sorry I don’t make the rules.

bisexual girls are great pass it on

[bi-privilege]

[txmriddlx]

Can you please reblog if your blog is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, aromantic, pansexual, non binary, demisexual or any other kind of queer or questioning people? Because mine is.

[zorilleerrant]

Things that are great:

using ‘queer’ because you like using something broad and non-specific

using microlabels because you like detail or organizing your identity

using a generally recognized label because you like people to hear it and immediately understand you

using something you made up because it means exactly what you want it to

using one specific term because you like having one specific identity

using a few terms because you like describing different parts or facets of your identity

using lots of terms because you like having different terms or because there are a lot of pieces of your identity you want to reference

not using any terms because you can’t find one you like or you’re still looking or you don’t like labels or you like being mysterious or you like describing things instead of naming them or it’s not anyone’s business or you just don’t understand labels or you can’t pinpoint your terms or there isn’t anything that describes you

You do you!

Prideful Plant Puns!!!

I’ve been working on these since pride month, and I feel bad they weren’t finished in time but I’m so happy with how they turned out! These basically happened because I called my best friend a lesbean-sprout and she loved it so much I decided to draw the first one, and things kinda,,, escalated. 

I really hope you guys love them as much as I do!

They’re all available on my redbubble!!

Please don’t repost/steal!

[monsterkissed]

cis lgb+ person sees a post about gendering little babies or ppl’s birth assignment or genitals or clothes or colours or fuckin entire species of animal and goes right to:

“wow check out these heterosexuals, wow this is the most hetero thing i’ve ever seen, look at these straights being straight thinking and doing straight things, the hetereos are wild, wow i literally cannot believe how totally straight- hm? trans-pho-bi-a? cis-sex-ism? ex-or-se- look sorry i don’t speak welsh”

[holybikinisbatman]

its like the cis lgb+ are trying to get me to hate them when they pull shit like this

Aromantic muslims are rad as heck

[starchaser3587]

So I did a thingy… It’s supposed to be that you can print this off on cardstock or something (1st pic front, 2nd pic back) and it’ll be a note card you can give people when they ask you questions about Asexuality. IDK if the lettering is too small, if it is, I’ll take off the back and make the front front and back

The back was kinda random based off of this post, and the responses were off the top of my head. If you want one like this, I can make you one on any topic (for free obviously)  (Asexual, Aromantic, Genderfluid, Transgender, Demisexual, Pansexual, etc.). I can also change around the format so if you want your own responses to questions, I can put that on there.

Feel free to add tags. Hope someone likes this!
