#Aromantic spectrum

Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week!

[aro-and-ace-propaganda]

If you're asexual, you're immature, an innocent bean who hasn't found the right one yet.

If you're not, you're a player, an abuser, a misogynist that takes advantage of women (if you're perceived as a man) or a whore (if you're perceived as a woman).

There's no winning. The goal is to throw you back into the closet.

gotta be honest, i hate the whole oppression contest between romance-favorable and romance-averse aromantics that’s going on right now. both of those groups are pressured to act like the other. you know why? because people just don’t like us being aromantic. that’s it. nobody’s more privileged than the other, at least not in this context.

if you’re alright with being in relationships, then you’re told you’re not really aromantic. the goal is to make you doubt you’re aromantic.

if you don’t want to be in relationships, then you’re told that aromantics can date, so you should! the goal is to make you more palatable, to make you romance-favorable so then, they can gaslight you into thinking you’re not actually aromantic. or they just straight up call you heartless (shoutout heartless aros, love you guys <2) and/or inhuman, but thats just their true colors showing. they think that of all aros.

and the aromantic people who says shit like that? they’re trying to throw the group they’re not part of under the bus to make themselves either more palatable or less ‘confusing’. they’re scared.

nobody’s winning here. let’s all just shut the fuck up for a second and recognize that these people just don’t want us to be aromantic. that’s it. doesn’t matter if you’re romance-averse, romance-favorable or anything else. they just want us to conform. and if you’re accusing the other side of being responsible for your oppression, you’re playing right into their game.

"it's ok for labels to change as you learn more about yourself" and "i hope with every fiber of my being that I'm right about being aroace and nobody will come along to change my mind because I hate the idea of being in a romantic relationship or conforming to gender roles or heteronormativity" are two sentences that can and should coexist.

shout out to repulsed aces and aros who have no safe spaces in fandom because it's just everywhere you turn and it's in all the fanarts and all the fanfics and all the posts except for like ... 5% TOPS.

shout out for enduring the horrors every day for the few rare posts that have nothing to do with sex or romance

[merely-a-caricature]

Normalize super close friendships instead of assuming there must be a romantic and/or sexual factor—friends are a wonderful treasure!

[ace-does-stuff]

[gritting my teeth] i love being aro in fandoms its amazing whats not to love about being aro in fandoms its the best thing ever being aro in fandoms nothing better mhm yep its great

[garlicbreadish]

being aroace is weird like wdym i find a person attractive but i do not want to date or have sex with them, but i also don't mind trying it out, but actually i do not have the urge to do so, but also maybe yes, but also never cause i'm scared...

do y'all get this or do i look stupid...

Pride Flag Series 2025: Emerald Mountain Top Glow

🤍💚🩶🖤

Demiromantic Flag!!!

Yall are getting the flags whenever the fuck I get them done fuck posting schedules /j

[cheesecakeislazy]

Just reposting this as a Panromantic demisexual- yeah tmi but my boyfriend and I are intimate!!! I find enjoyment in sexual acts but ONLY with someone I have a deep connection with. Yes- I am allowed to make jokes or even say the words “smash” to a character or person even if in reality I would not actually “smash”!

I am slightly sex repulsed when it comes to REAL people, but I am okay when it comes to fictional characters. Not everyone is the same. I may be very different than your fellow asexual. I’ve stated that I am fine with practically any type of genitalia- I don’t give a damn about gender when it comes to relations of any kind, what I do care about is if I’m genuinely interested and attracted to this person.

I HAVE HAD CRUSHES WHERE THE THOUGHT OF SEX DISGUSTED ME-!! Asexuality is a spectrum and I am tired of people thinking it’s black and white. Guys- the flag is literally not lol

Happy ASAW 2024, here's something about community !

[spaghetti-chronicles]

Struggling with hypersexuality does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Being sexually assaulted does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Having a libido does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Multiplicity does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Recognizing fluidity in your attraction does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity (this one is about greyaces, greyaro, arospike, acespike and similar terms)

Engaging in sexual and/or romantic activities for any reason does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Being a sex worker does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Previously identifying with any other identity does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Sexual jokes and innuendos do not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

Telling the people in your life (even friends) that you love them does not inherently negate your aro and/or ace identity

What makes someone aro and/or ace is experiencing little to no romantic and/or sexual attraction

Happy pride month and feel free to add to this
