Happy aromantic awareness week to all my fellow aro/arospec people

[highasthesea]

Saiki K is such a fucking bastard like my guy was like "oh so aromantic/asexuals aren't human? well fuck you then" and went superhuman mode

I don’t think allo people understand: you get everyone else. Almost every single fictional character is allo. Every character that exists is allo until proven aro/ace/aroace. So on that rare occasion when we actually get representation, and when it’s genuinely good representation, please just let us have it. Many allo people are respectful, and I thank them for that, but it’s impossible to ignore the massive problem in fandom culture of downplaying the importance of, or even downright erasing, an aro/ace/aroace characters’ identities. Aro characters are shipped all the time, which is fine if you understand the nuances of the identity and see that it is a complex thing to be aromantic, but I see a lot of people who don’t, and think that they can say ‘oh but aro people can date’ as an excuse to ship a character. This happens with ace characters too, they are sexualised in fandom all the time (I’m not talking about any characters specifically, but I’ll tag a few who come to mind). Again, this is understandable if you understand, but if you are sexualising an asexual character just because you find them hot or just for the sake of it, surely you understand why we are upset. This is not me trying to pick a fight, I’m just an aroace who is frustrated. 

You guys get everyone else. Just let us have the few who we see ourselves in.

Aromantic and/or asexual characters

EDIT:

New addition!

[radiopookie]

the day aroace characters stop getting shipped constantly with the entire cast is the day i will be in peace

[jollywasnthere]

Am I the only one who noticed this? I think Mao Mao also fits in on the aroace part, what other characters fit in?

[aceinsearchofspace]

We need more comedies like Romantic Killer and Saiki K where the plot revolves around the main character actively avoiding romantic interactions and still not being interested in a relationship by the end. It's just so funny and one of my favorite tropes.

Behold! The most chronically online ship dynamic known to man!

Tribute to our Aro/Ace king on this miserable… Valentines Day 🤢

i think it's weird that people say you shouldn't change a fictional character's canon queer sexuality (which I think is fair) until they're aro/ace or both.
