So I wanted to do this on Instagram where all my friends from school live, but there's a certain persons that i am not out to yet (the unfortunate irony because I've always screamed my ace-ness out loud) and so until they can't do anything about me being ace and just have to accept it as reality I'm not making ace posts there. Also I'mma do the aro one next
Junior year of high school. One of my old friends bought a thing at Spencer's and was like well I gotta provide or something like that (I don't have a word for word memory I'm not Spencer Reed from criminal minds!!! Lol) and my response was along the lines of "well I don't gotta do that" and then he was like "maybe ur asexual" and I was like "I'm going have to look into that"
Not really. I knew that it was real and until told otherwise (see 2) I thought I had it. Most people didn't tell me much about sexual attraction so I didn't have a reference to go by. For me i confused thinking someone looked aesthetically pleasing (is that what you other aro aces call it? I don't really call it anything but "I can say you look pretty but I'm not really attracted to you that would be gross lol") and forced crushes as romantic and sexual attraction but put little thought to the sexual part (I've never given sexual attraction much thought, It can die in a hole of flaming spikes)
When I finally looked up what ace was a few days (or maybe a week?) After that conversation with my friend in answer 2. I was hanging out with another friend during lunch and she brought this guy to eat lunch with us but he would constantly make sexual jokes and at one point I was like "Ok I have had enough what is this asexual thing?!" And it's been "well, I'm definitely ace" every day since then.
I am a raging sex-repulsed asexual. Alternative answer: sex-repulsed SEX-REPULSED SEX-REPLSED.
This one is complicated. While I like the idea of kissing and cuddling usually, but when it comes down to it I hate doing it. It becomes a battle between the me that would want to kiss and cuddle and the me that doesn't and I'll just have to go with how I'm feeling at the time.
Yeah I'm aromantic too. I don't get crushes like a normal person and in general I'm bad at romance. I'm going to answer the aro questions too.
I guess I'm a little bit gender queer, but I feel like it could also be a combination of my sex-repulsion and my distaste for gender stereotypes. Im fine with some of my friends using they/them pronouns for me (they do it for everyone who they don't know their prefered gender) and when I do male cosplays I guess it would be nice to be referred to as he/him. The sex-repulsion version of this is that gender is associated with sex (because of the difference sexual organs.) and as a raging sex-repulsed asexual I hate things associated with sex. So there's times when I don't like having either gender and would prefer to be non-binary. So to simplify this I just use female pronouns and accept people using non binary pronouns for me, and I'm only cool with male pronouns if I'm cosplaying as someone who's male. Also if my pfp is william if you want Lol
I don't remember exactly who but it was definitely my close friends. And then I screamed it to most of the world.
Yes I have 2 ace friends and we are the ace villains and we take over the world riding dragons.
Almost and I bet it would be fun. But there's some people that I'm not out to yet and i can't seem to find anyone who would also come with me to a pride parade.
Riding my dragon while eating cake on my way to take over the world. 🐉🍰
I have 2 ace rings. One is a spinning ring with runes on it, its nice and at least it's metal, but it has silver on it and I prefer all black. The other one is all black but it's rubber.
I want an ace flag blanket but there is a complication that I won't tell you about. (Ok, if you want to know it has to do with peoples I'm not out too ok)
Sometimes. It's a blessing because then the raging sex-repulsion doesn't bubble up.
I almost punched a wall watching Dexter and bojack horseman. I could get through bojak because of its asexual representation but I'm struggling to finish Dexter. They are both good shows though.
SEX SONGS ARE THE WORST AND MAKE ME SO MAD. Some love songs are cheezy but some are good but also they could be part of why I hate be aromantic sometimes so.... They are ok.
Bad decisions but No sexual relationships ever ever for all eternity NEVER.
I'm good at making entertainment out of people who badly flirt with me by omitting the part where I'm aro ace... Does that count?
I have nothing against it if they are ok with me being ace and that I don't want anything sexual to be part of my life, but realistically it would be an insanely difficult relationship that honestly I would still try if I liked the clod but I think it would be unlikely to work. I don't want that to discourage any non-ace or non-aro people, I can't tell if someone likes me unless they are bad at hiding it so they should go ahead and tell me.
Like 3 I think. There might be more.
My parents want me to want kids. Sometimes I do just to teach them the ways of quality cartoons. But also no not at all thank you very much. And if I was to want kids I'm not giving birth to them. That is out of the freaking question no thanks. (So that would probably mean adoption because I don't think there's any other real option but I haven't looked at it because currently all I want is a pet snake)
ANYTHING. But as a joke: planning world domination.
This one is complicated too. The fact that I am a sex-repulsed asexual is in itself the best part about being a sex-repulsed asexual because I am so sex-repulsed.
"is your heart actually an ace shape?" Yes. Ace of spades. Fanciest heart in the deck ♠️. "Can you still have sex if you're asexual?" yes but some aces are sex-repulsed and do not want to have sex. I am the queen of said aces.
