#ace negativity

[officialaspec]

If you're looking through the ace discourse tag to self harm (whether you're ace, aro, aroace, alloaro, or alloace): please know that you are amazing and loved. You are not broken, or worthless. You are not wrong.

You are you, and that's great. Please take care of yourself.

My biggest wish for pride month is that people stop labeling the entire ace community as homophobic after interacting with 2 troll acey blogs that are intentionally trying to piss people off.

One awful person does not represent a whole community, that applies to ALL communities not the ones you choose to cherry pick.

So...

I’m ace and I genuinely don’t see anything wrong with it. I know it’s just how some people are. But I just..I don’t want to be ace. I’m sex repulsed and have never been able to get even remotely close to trying it. 

I want to have a nice healthy relationship and it’s so frustrating because I know if I could just do it then I would’ve been able to keep so many good relationship. But I can’t. I feel so broken and I’m frustrated and it’s been leading to so much body dysphoria and the like and I can’t get rid of the feeling that I’m just broken and I want help but I have no idea where I’d even start looking and

I’m tired and scared and just so done with feeling like this

I don’t want to be like this

I just want to be happy with myself

[heatherwitch]

gatekeeping was a term invented by trans women. don't use it for your dumbass acecourse, bitch.

Lol where did this even come from? I never once used the term gatekeeping in reference to the ace discourse - not that it’s an exclusive term anyways. Take a chill pill my friend.
