Being aromantic is odd

I just forget about it, doesn’t even cross my mind most days

I don’t have romantic attraction so there’s nothing to label

But I label it, because somehow this nothing, this thing I don’t understand, is a big deal for others

And if I don’t label it, people will think I’m like them and then look at me funny when I don’t understand

There’s no attraction there, how could I possibly understand

I’m Aromantic

i feel like a lot of discourse around identities could just be boiled down to “you could not pay me to care about this”

[arachnid-party]

therians? this doesn’t affect me in the slightest. weird transgenders? okay who cares. contradictory labels? none of my business. neopronouns? it takes 5 seconds of my time to google how to use a pronoun set this is like minimal brain work. bi lesbians? i don’t get how that works but the world will keep spinning. normalize minding your own business

Ace and aro little guys

I liked the idea of just making chill little guys……… that’s how I feel as an aroace person at least

I’m struggling with my redbubble rn it won’t let me log in but once it does I’ll start actually putting stuff up cuz it’s pride now :) happy pride month!

You say you accept aromanticism but do you only accept it as long as it fits your expectations? Do you only accept it as long as I keep my options open, as long as I don’t 100% settle on this label, as long as I allow you a small amount of hope that one day I’ll tell you I’ve changed, I’ve seen the light, I’ve found the One?

You say you accept aromanticism, but is your acceptance conditional on my redemption through platonic love? Do I have to prove to you that I am likable, that I am lovable, that I am human? Do I have to be touch starved, do I have to be lonely, do I have to feel like I am missing out?

You say you accept aromanticism, but do you believe me when I speak about dehumanization, about my anger at being pitied? Do you put yourself in my shoes and imagine the effort it takes to shape a future that looks like most people's worst fear? Do you understand that my life is not sad for not following your rigid guideline to happiness?

You say you accept aromanticism, but do you accept the changes I demand of society? Do you accept that relationship hierarchies are not inherent but learned? Do you accept that community is more meaningful in fighting the loneliness epidemic than finding the One? Do you notice that society is predisposed to benefit couples over singles? Do you realize that this is wrong?

If you say you accept aromanticism but only do so as long as I am quiet about it, as long as I make no demands, offer no criticism, draw no attention to myself, then I do not care for your acceptance because your acceptance isn't real.

Shout out to aros who love strongly, who love using the term love, and those who want to define their relationships around love. Shout out to aros with complicated relationships to love, aros who like the concept of love but not the way it's used in society, aros who have reclaimed love for themselves. Shout out to aros who don't love, aros who have rejected love all together and aros who define their experiences outside of love.

All of these experiences have their place in the arospec communities and all of these experiences bring value to the arospec communities.

[aro-absol]

You know what I like so much about the aromantic community?

We have so many concepts that the average alloromantic person has never heard of. Concepts that make it so much easier to explain our experiences, desires and struggles to other people. They make it so much easier to exist as an aromantic person in this world. Of course, every aromantic person can decide whether they find these concepts helpful and applicable to their experiences. But I find it amazing how many cool concepts the aromantic community either came up with or took pre-existing concepts and made them our aromantic 101. I don't think the allos really get how being aromantic can fundamentally change your worldview. And to be honest, I think they're missing out because I think everyone would benefit from at least being familiar with those concepts.

Being aromantic is basically like this:

Aromantic shrimp colours are real.

Anyways, aromantic community, y'all mean a lot to me and I'm so happy I found y'all and now share your "secret" knowledge!

[algolithium]

hey it's feb 14. Love is in the air. So I turned some of the aspec flags into plague doctors.

because is love in the air? No. Miasma.

here's my tribute to the aspec community, to make this day a bit bearable, I guess. :))

Just my little bit on the it/it's pronouns discussion, I will admit, when I first heard of it/it's pronouns, I was very bewildered and skeptical on using it for others as I've always grown up with the pronouns referring to an object, place or something that isn't human. To call someone an "it" felt very derogatory. Now, as I've seen more people use it/it's pronouns, I have grown more comfortable using it/it's to refer to people (if of course a person uses those set of pronouns) and it eventually became normal and another set of pronouns someone might use. To see people using these pronouns proudly, to reclaim their humanity, is one of the most beautiful things that I grew to see.

hey thank you so much for stopping by! i really appreciate this!

i think you're taking the right approach to things! and you're right, the more exposed to it you are, the more comfortable it becomes. it's just something some people use. it doesn't mean they're inherently dehumanizing themselves

and the thing is, maybe someone is using it/its to dehumanize themselves. we need to respect that, too. some people just don't feel human. some people aren't human- some people are nonhumans, be it cultural, religious, spiritual, otherkin, therians, and so on, some people identify as nonhuman. others just like when it is used to dehumanize them, personally. and that's okay. we have to learn to respect what other people ask to be called, when it's not appropriative or harmful. we can't project ourselves into their shoes needlessly

i appreciate you so much! take care of yourself!
