#y’all will make excuse after excuse as to why instances of discrimination against asexuals ‘aren’t actually about asexuality’

I think that anon was probably referencing how LGBT communities don't really have a need to bring up a few years of teenagers bullying each other on tumblr because it's not a huge deal for them in comparison. the ace community brings it up rather frequently because it's pretty much the worst thing to ever happen to their community since they don't face systemic issues in the way LGBT people do
“The worst thing to ever happen to their community” yeah and the worst thing to happen to lgbt people was some kids using gay as an insult… (obvious fucking sarcasm)
Ace people absolutely face systemic issues you fucking dolt. Corrective rape, conversion therapy, marriage discrimination, medical discrimination, etc. are all issues that are faced by ace people. Either you’re living under a rock or you’re wilfully ignorant.
Also if you think the worst of the ace discourse era was just “teenage bullying” you weren’t actually there to witness the genuinely awful shit people said and did. My original post was pretty lighthearted, I was just talking about some of the batshit nonsense people came up with, but there was some genuinely horrific stuff happening as well.
