After working with a member of the PA commission of LGBTQ affairs...It's official: The commonwealth of Pennsylvania (my homestate) recognizes #AceWeek A Black Asexual Activist (me) from the city of Erie got the process started...I'm crying happy tears y'all...
This makes three states! Check out more of Asexual Outreach’s Ace Week plans here!
It’s asexual awareness week and I wanted to bring some awareness to ace (and aro) rings!!!
So there’s an asexual ring that signifies that you are asexual that you can wear as a bit of subtle pride (as well as an aromantic counterpart)
💜 An ace ring is a black ring worn on the right middle finger
💚 An aro ring is a white ring worn on the left middle finger
These are my ace and aro rings!! I have a set of silicone ones (left) which are cheap and durable and a set of spinner rings (right) for fidgeting
Black and white are the usual color for these rings but you can have them be flag colors too if you want!!
I’ve worn an ace ring for at least four years now so it’s not new btw!! I’ve had someone recognize it too. I wanna spread awareness of them since they’re a fun subtle way for aspecs to show pride and find each other too!!
Imo it’s definitely not talked about enough because I often see that aspecs are completely unaware of them and I’d love to see more of us wearing them ☺️💜
(rbs appreciated!! aphobes and exclusionists dni)

Do you know of any canon ace characters :)?
I do! It’s hard to find canon ace characters but we do have a few! Some are stated outright in their medium while others have been confirmed by the creator. I’m putting a little 💜 next to those have had the actual word “asexual” used out loud in the show/game/book/etc. And please add to the list!!!! I’m sure I’m missing some and it’d be great to learn about more canon asexuals!!
💜 Todd Chavez from Bojack Horseman is asexual
Raphael Santiago from Shadowhunters is aroace (though the aromantic is implied in the book and outright ignored in the show he is canonically ace in both)
💜 Jughead Jones (Jughead is canonically asexual in the Chip Zdarsky comic run and over the course of the decades of comics he’s been aromantic and asexual. But the word is used in the Chip comics. Also I don’t mean the crap version of Jughead from Ri***dale. I refuse to watch that show purely because I cannot stomach the fact that they straightwashed Juggie so much. Just completely said fuck it to decades of aroaceness. Atrocious)
💜 (putting a heart because even though they don’t use the word outright in the show, it’s not just word of god canon here) Jonathan Sims from the Magnus Archives is canonically biromantic asexual
💜 Chloe Turner from the Bright Sessions podcast is panromantic asexual
💜 Jet Sikuliaq from the Penumbra Podcast is aromantic asexual
💜 Voodoo from Sirens is asexual
💜 Gerald Tippett from Shortland Street goes on a whole journey of discovery for his asexuality.
💜 Liv Flaherty from Emmerdale is ace
💜 There’s a background character named Brad in Faking It (3x08) that is asexual and even though he’s in the background I really enjoy him and the fact that they included him.
💜 In the youtube series “The March Family Letters” Beth is asexual (check out episode 38)
Clairel form Garth Nix’s book is asexual
Charlie Weasley from the Harry Potter books is asexual and possible aromantic. It’s not stated in canon but JK said that she didn’t “think he’s gay. He’s more interested in dragons than woman” and even though she’s a piece of trash Charlie continues to be super important to me and he’s ace.
💜 The web comic series Rock and Riot has a ton of ace characters
💜 Florence from Sex Education is ace
Alastor from Hazbin Hotel is aromantic asexual
💜 Parvati from The Outer Worlds is asexual
💜 Dionysus from The Wicked and The Divine is asexual
Peridot from Steven Universe is aromantic asexual
Spongebob Squarepants is asexual
Reyna and the Hunters of Artemis from the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan are asexual (and the Hunters are aromantic too)
Varys from Game of Thrones is ace although they don’t use the word he describes himself has having no interest in sex
Adrian Veidt aka Ozymandias from the Watchman has been described by the creator as asexual
Dove Cameron said on twitter that her character Ruby Hale from Agents of Shield is asexual
Daryl Dixon from the Walking Dead has been called asexual by both Norman Reedus and Robert Kirkman
