You know what? Forget the discourse. This is no longer my hill to die on.

You wanna ship canonically aspec characters because “aro/ace people can still date/have sex”? Okay, then. LET’S DO IT.  I wanna see an aromantic character with an alloromantic love interest. I wanna see that confession of undying love and the moment when the aro character says they will never feel the same way—not romantically.

I wanna see the asexual character with their allosexual partner. I wanna see that moment when the ace characters tries sex with their partner for the first time because they want to make them happy only to realize that they are 100% sex repulsed.

I wanna see the two demiromantics who don’t even know if what they feel is romantic attraction, but they adore each other and just want to make healthy snacks together and destroy each other at Mario Kart.

I wanna see the two aces who love sensual affection and are figuring out what they define as sexual or not.

I wanna see the romance + sex neutral aroace who happily and consensually does whatever makes their partner happy…but their partner still struggles with feeling undesired. 

Oh, babe. You thought shipping an aspec character would be just like shipping an allo character?

"you don't owe anyone anything" You are a tar pit. Speak for yourself. I personally owe the cafe employees my dishes put away and my friends a listening ear and small scared insects a cup and a gentle trip outside. Hyperindividualism is a rancid infection borne of capitalism and willfully misinterpreted therapyspeak and I will defy it by continuing to be kind regardless of whether or not it benefits me personally

I feel that sometimes, as a community, we focus on the "little" part of the definition and forget that the "no" also exists

So, this pride month, I want to give a special shout out to my fellow adverse/repulsed arospecs and aspecs

Shoutout to all acespecs who experience no sexual attraction

Shoutout to all acespecs who don't want to have sex

Shoutout to all arospecs who experience no romantic attraction

Shoutout to all arospecs who don't want romantic relationships

Shoutout to all aroaces who experience no romantic or sexual attraction

Shoutout to all aroaces who don't want romantic or sexual relationships

Shoutout to all aspecs who don't want a relationship of any kind be it romantic, sexual or platonic

Your experience and your identity are not just some harmful stereotype, and you belong in aspec spaces just as much as everyone else.

Signed,

A sex and romance adverse aroace 💜🖤🩶🤍💚

Being asexual still gives you agency over your own sexuality. You still choose how sexual you are or not. You still get the final say over what aspects of sexuality interest you or what you're comfortable with or not.

listen, sometimes it's more powerful for a fictional relationship to be a friendship precisely because friendship is devalued in comparison to romance. anyone can sacrifice themself for the love of their life. but for a friend? if anything, that kind of devotion can be even more moving than if the relationship is romantic. there's a real dramatic power to prioritising friendship in your narratives sometimes.

Aromantic culture is getting sososo excited when you find a character who's intensely aromantic coded / subtext

I don't care if the author intended it or not, they straight up are and I love it so much!!!!

(y'all are always welcome to specify who!)
