Ace community can we please for the love of god stop calling sex-favorable or sex-neutral aces “exceptions.”

I’ve seen one too many angry shipping discourse posts where yall are complaining about your ace blorbo being headcanoned to have sex by some people because of “exceptions.”

We are not exceptions. We are just as much a part of the ace community as you are. We are allowed to talk about our experiences and we are allowed to also project our experiences onto fictional characters as much as you are, and the fact you assume it’s just allo people talking about these “exceptions” is a part of the problem.

#aspec #asexual #sex favorable asexual #sex neutral asexual #this isn’t really just about fandom bullshit. some of you treat us like this outside of those spaces too #‘allos erase a canonically aspec character’s sexuality’#and ‘the ace community is often really unfriendly towards those of us who don’t despise sex’#are two statements that can and should coexist #and it’s not that I want everything to be about me. or that your experience isn’t valid #but I would like not to see hostility towards those who are sex-favorable
