#aro pride

[starsinoursystem]

this pride month I'm gonna need everyone to be radically pro transgender and also pro intersex and also pro ace and aro spec peoples thanks

Editing this version as well to add:

This post is not about poly people. It is not about gay men. It is not about you, the greater lgbt community. I have respect for you all, and I fall under some of your categories. But this is not about you. It is about us, the intersex people you forget. It is about us, the asexual people you infantilize and tell we can't be sexual. It is about my friends, the aromatic people you tell cannot be allosexual. It is about my friends, the transgender women and men you misgender because you think you have the right to decide. This is not about you. Make your own post and I'll happily support you. But do not talk over me.

Asking for touch as an aspec is so weird like “hey, please touch me, but not in a sex/romance way, just in a human contact way. Interact with my body’s touchscreens. Punch me in the face or something. Please. I’ll take anything at this point.”

Edit: of course everyone here has blanket permission to tag this as Blorbo from their Shows. We love seeing representation, implicit or explicit.

"love is love" until it doesn't include sex

"love is love" until it lives in separate beds

"love is love" until it is queer platonic

"love is love" until it does not comply with compulsory sexuality and amatonormativity

love IS love, for aspecs, for sex repulsed folk and for platonic relationships

"love is love" apply to more than same-sex relationships in a world where romantic and sexual relationships are considered more valuable

Remember to advocate for Asexuals and Aromantics this pride. Because we are also here, and we are also queer

Any character can be aromantic if you try hard enough. Be the change you want to see in the world.

AROMANTIC HEART!! glad they updated it to now change with the tags! Also an asexual one, but its randomised if both are tagged and I only got it once (and i missed the screenshot)

previously, the bipoc pride flag would appear only on pride month tagged posts (less then 3 hours tho and then they snapped and updated it... GOOD. you didn't even have the trans or intersex flags included.... but they now have a separate animation for both of those!!)
