My average asensual experience in other aspec communities is that whenever someone asks the community their stance on touch (mostly within friendships) and I mention that I don't want people to touch me at all, I get at least 1 mf who tries to convince me I should just let people do it despite my discomfort.

As if there was no other way in terms of showing affection besides letting some mf land their hand on me. Cause consent & discomfort suddenly don't matter, those are only important in sexual situations 🙄
