The AroAce is protesting this vehemently. They can absolutely be trusted near massive heavy-duty machinery that can completely demolish things. They would never, EVER put important government documents or a transphobic state legislator into an active woodchipper. No way.

Hi! I wanted to warn you of carcinizedgender, this is a aphobe that should be blocked and reported. I just wanted send this as there is many who are pretending they are for aspecs when they aren't. This one discriminated a aroace person named who was is his ex-gf.

Thank you, I'll look into it.

Update : yeah no, I agree, that person should be reported for aphobia

Queerness is not just about sex and romance. Since the concept of queer has been around, so have asexual and aromantic people. Lavender marriages, voluntary spinsters, vows of chastity used to cover a disinterest in sex. “Monosexuals”, “anesthesia sexual”, “anaphrodites”, category "X". Queer-platonic relationships, asexuality and aromanticism are an undeniable part of lgbtq+ history. Before there were any terms, any flags or acronyms, choosing to not conform to society’s romantic and sexual guidelines has been the very essence of queerness. The inherent queer experience of feeling alienated because you don’t love the “right” way or feel the right feelings for the right people, of trying to meet the expectations set for you while trying to build a life that doesn’t feel like a lie. These are all part of the aspec experience. We aren’t “invading” a space we don’t belong because it’s a trend, or an internet identity. We’re not “spicy straight”. We’re making ourselves known in a community we have always been a part of.

me currently:

“i want people to have crushes on me so badly because i thrive on external validation and im super insecure so i really really want people to have crushes on me”

also me, being aroace and sex/romance-repulsed (if someone has a crush on me):

“pleasepleasepleaseplease nobody have a crush on me and ESPECIALLY DONT TELL ME because then i have to reject you and i hate rejecting people and then i’ll probably have to come out to avoid hurting anyone because i overthink everything ahahahha”

At 250 notes on this, I'll come out to my parents.

Edit : I did come out, it went well except for some aphobia but they were supportive. I came out in French so I couldn't use either "the only lust I feel is bloodlust" or "this bloodline ends with me"

aphobia is not just harmful to asexual and aromantic people. it hurts everyone when society tells people they are not complete without a romantic partner. that they are aren’t a whole person if they aren’t in love and sexually desirable. people spend some of the most fulfilling parts of their lives feeling like they’re wasting that time because they aren’t in a relationship. they spend so much time looking for “the one”. time that could be spent learning, travelling, building a found family. they miss out on meaningful relationships, on soulmates, because they are told that person can’t be the most important person in their life. it devalues the support that’s found in community, it devalues the love found in friendships, it devalues the importance for living for oneself.

Alastor is Ace!

I started this comic in April 2023 for Asexual Visibility Day, but I didn't finish it until... August. So. The first few pages might look funny, but the art improves!
