"love how you casually left out that allosexual lumps straight people with lgbt people as well. so thats’ cool." That was implied. I know what allosexual means. Tell me now why exactly the ace community is homophobic. And how. Give me examples. You want people to be on your side? Then give me evidence other than your opinion. I can do the same. That's what actual discourse is, no?
Your understanding of sexual attraction is your understanding. People are allowed to id as ace because they lack that attraction. It's a valid way of identification and the way I've seen you attack individual ace bloggers who are trying to defend who they ARE.... that doesn't match up to the idea of your understanding of sexual attraction to me. Can you explain that? Do you think id'ing as asexual inherently makes you homophobic? Can you explain why you are acephobic, or at least do not deny it?
I'm asking this as genuine curiosity here. I don't want to attack you, and I would appreciate it if you not attack me and tell me to go back to my memes. I'll do that when I get an answer from you so I can understand.
right. so there’s a lot to unpack here. but if you want discourse then fine. i’ll explain things that i’ve already taken the time to explain to people like you AGAIN.
i mean. it really wasn’t. but whatever. if you want a long, much more indepth explanation on why allosexual is a fucking shitty word, here. go read this. because that is something im not explaining for the millionth time.

2) “tell me exactly why the ace community is homophobic and how. give me examples”
let me be clear. have i ever said that the entire ace community is homophobic? nope! are there a lot of homophobic aces and aros both on tumblr and in the real world who think that their ‘ace/aro-ness’ gives them free reign to be as homophobic as they want? MHM.
and if you want examples, then sure. let’s play that game too

and before you go and say “well those couple of people don’t represent the whole community. go ahead and look at the number of notes of people reblogging the original posts without any sort of critical comment. people make these sorts of posts and A L O T of people actively support them.
3) “that’s what discourse is, no?”
i mean no. discourse isn’t you asking to see reciepts of things that you refuse to acknowledge that happen. so like....idk what to tell you. its not discourse if its just me telling you shit that’s gone down but whatever
4) “Your understanding of sexual attraction is your understanding. People are allowed to id as ace because they lack that attraction. It's a valid way of identification and the way I've seen you attack individual ace bloggers who are trying to defend who they ARE”
so if my understanding of sexual attraction is my understanding then why are you asking me to change it? like i said. everyone experiences it differently. not everyone needs a million sub-categorizations to define their attraction. some people don’t need to seperate romantic and sexual attraction. some people do. all of those are fine. ive never said they aren’t. so try again.
the only ace bloggers i ‘attack’ are ones that post homophobic and serophobic things. so...not to be rude...but if you think them being ace gives them clearance to be homophobic, you’re apart of the problem.
5) Do you think id'ing as asexual inherently makes you homophobic? Can you explain why you are acephobic, or at least do not deny it?
no. i don’t. again. show me where i’ve ever said that. if you can ask for receipts, then so can i. show me those reciepts.
and if being acephobic means keeping cishet aces and cishet aros out of lgbt spaces, then yea i guess that makes me the worlds biggest aphobe :((((
but hey. if you think cishets should be apart of lgbt communities, you know, the communities they actively oppress, then that makes you both a homophobe AND a transphobe ://////
6) I would appreciate it if you not attack me
not sure how telling you to go away and leave me alone is attacking you but go off i guess
