#kiss repulsed

[braincloggedwithcats]

Hey . Kissing repulsion is always ok. If you're kissing repulsed you're awesome and I care you. It doesn't make you silly, it doesn't make you childish and you deserve respect. It doesn't matter why you're kissing repulsed, if you have a reason at all, how old you are or how much or little you can tolerate, you're not hurting anyone and it's ok. I'm sorry if you've been made to feel bad for it, I'm sorry if you've ever made yourself feel bad for it, I'm sorry it's so hard to avoid. You're cool and you're allowed to feel however you want about it and that should be respected. You're ok

Im kissrepulsed. And my partner loved kissing before we started dating. And then was a bit sad but we're totally understandable when I said I don't wanna kiss.

And recently we saw a couple outside and they kissed. And they looked so confused and then said "oh right some people do that" they genuinely forgot kissing is a big part of a relationship fir some.

And that makes me so happy.

We're nit that far with the sex kart yet. But we're working on an arrangement so it's fair fir both of us.

I'm just so happy to have them

Being a demiromantic, kiss + sex repulsed ace is like:

-the absolute relief that I don’t have to follow allo hetero norms of dating strangers, being demanded to kiss on the 1-3 date(s), I don’t have to resign myself to sex, pregnancy, childbirth, and child rearing.

- …but I still feel romantic attraction sometimes. When I’m already attracted to someone platonically. It just feels different than Friends Only. It’s too romantic to call it queer platonic attraction. I would, actually, like to explore it.

-but how dare I want to. when there IS no compromise here. it’s either I ignore my boundaries and feel sick and trapped inside, or Apparently Everyone Else feels absolutely neglected because I “won’t even kiss them.”

-how dare I fall in love. but why can’t how I feel be accepted even if it’s rare and will probably still result in me having to harbor my feelings for someone else alone because compatibility matters…but at least I wouldn’t feel like a bitch or broken or called “arrested sexual development”

- …I just want to be able to express how I feel even if the odds are beyond stacked against me ever being able to act it.

Me: *reads a snippet*

Me: cool. I'll reblog it later when I get time

Writer: *posts part 2*

Me: huh, that was quick.

Me: but the A/N says it has serious making out.

Me: hmmm

Me: maybe I can scroll to the last para for the plot

Me: *scroll scroll scroll* — eyes fall over making out desc in second-last para

Me: EWWW, GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS GROSS WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS — IT'S SO GROSS 🤢

dude. bro. my guy. pal. buddy.

why the FUCK would I want to kiss someone???

[insufferablefirehazard]

When I love someone and then the AI assumes I wanna kiss the person I love on the mouth.

Blech.

me explaining why Will/Elizabeth/Jack love triangle was a perfect little one-movie arc that wasn't present in the final movie because it was never about choosing and instead just about dynamics and character development so they all outgrew it by then

[piss-stained-jorts]

saw some clown on here whining about other people not liking kissing and reducing it to the gross parts and that it’s indicative of a society that fears flesh (which yes it does but that’s not how to go about making the point) and blah blah fucking blah

anyway instead of being a salty bitch and getting into an internet argument with some stranger I’m gonna be a Big Adult and use my rage and spite to remind all of you that

hating kissing is okay, you’re not weird or broken or a prude,

whether you’re asexual or allosexual it’s fine if you despise swapping spit with another human being, it doesn’t mean you love them any less, and you’re FINE. love is expressed in different ways. humans celebrate each other differently, love comes in different forms, it’s fine if you only want to kiss people you’re close to or not at all or literally anything in-between, and shaming people for hating an act of intimacy is fucked up. show love how you want. enjoy the company of others how you want. you don’t have to see kissing as anything more than the gross parts, and “reducing” it to that or whatever is just as okay as romanticizing it as something more. it’s just some ritual humans made up, and we’re allowed to feel literally any fucking way in the world about it.

live your life. be free.

I'm kissing repulsed and I want to talk about it but I feel like my friends would mock me and call me childish. No matter how much they prove otherwise (which, in my defence, really isn't a lot) I can't shake the feeling that theyre all just a little bit arophobic

Being asexual and possibly aromantic but also being a huge shipper and hopeless romantic is such a wild experience ngl. I'm always freaking out about my favorite ships and giggling internally reading ship fics, getting invested in characters finally kissing or reading about their pining and their love and I think "I want what they have!!"

But then sometimes you have a slamming realization that your sweet shipping scenarios you imagine in your head look totally different irl and that you are extremely aspec.

One time I went down a YouTube rabbit hole and stumbled across Vsauce's "Why Do We Kiss?" video and let me tell you. When I saw that stock video footage of two people kissing each other I was a little flabbergasted lmaooo

Ok now someone make a fwb Elliott mod

fuck it man I’m not leaving this in tags youre going to hear me because I’m CORRECT

Why is everyone here so obsessed with sex and romance why can't you appreciate the comedic genius of "rivals who fight about parenting to rile the other up to begrudging coparents who bicker like a divorced couple to actually maybe tolerating the other and the insults are now less spiteful and biting to hells first qpr (queerplatonic rivalry) to hells first qpr (queerplatonic relationship)"

finally finished this fucking book

it took me almost a year because it’s so hard to get through oh my GODS

[chotachica]

To me the difference between alastors and voxs character energy is that alastor seems like he has made out with every male he has ever interacted with while vox seems like he needs to make out with every male he has ever interacted with
