Reblog this if you support sex-averse and sex-repulsed aces, including:
- Aces who never want to have sex
- Aces who had sex in the past but don’t desire it anymore
- Aces with sexual trauma who feel like their trauma ties into their asexuality
- Aces with sexual trauma who don’t feel like their trauma caused their asexuality
- Aces who don’t want to talk to you about sex
- Aces who don’t want to hear about sex
- Yes even aces who do not want to engage with any sexual content and don’t want it in their own personal spaces
- Yes even aces who express the desire to have more spaces for queer adults where their boundaries are met (on top of the queer spaces that exist, we do not want to sanitize your existing spaces ffs)
If you cannot be normal about these people existing, if you believe they’re a threat to our community and to how we’re viewed by people who aren’t aspec and the rest of the LGBTQ+ community, you are not an asexual ally. Yes, even if you’re aspec yourself. Especially if you’re aspec yourself.
Because it’s been pride month for 4 days and I’m already seeing people trying to throw us under the bus or pretend we don’t exist because that makes the ace community more palatable to exclusionists and people who swallowed too much “aces are puritans” propaganda.
