Queer puritans be using asexuals as their main anti-kink argument like “the aces don’t like this! Don’t expose them to it!” Which is not only treating us like children (because they use the same argument for the “kink is inappropriate for kids” talking point) but is also just. So fucking stupid.
Because not only are you making it out that we can’t think for ourselves and don’t know ourselves well enough to know our limits, not only are you only just now caring about us just to use us in your argument after unending aphobia, but you also don’t understand how many aces think and feel about sex.
Like. Literally. I’m aroace, right? Mf my first ever fanfiction was a gay smut. (Almost) all my ace friends love making sex jokes, and they also understand them when they’re cracked by allos. Many, MANY aces have (and enjoy!) sex and sexual activities. Many aces are a part of the kink scene since it allows us to explore sex in a different way than the “norm” and isn’t just vanilla. I have met asexual furries (as an acefur myself) and can confirm that we are some of the kinkiest and horniest little bastards there are around.
So stop using aces to defend your puritanical views. Chances are, the aces you’re trying to “protect” not only hate you, but also are way more raunchy and deviant (affectionate) than you think. We aren’t always the soft UwU innocent little babies you think we are. And the aces that are sex repulsed and uncomfortable with kink know their limits and can go to a more chill parade because, news flash, they are functioning and can think for themselves.
