Hot take but the aggressive hardline separation of asexual and aromantic is actually EXTREMELY harmful to a lot of ace/aro people.
Angry rant under the cut
It's one to thing to go: "okay yes sometimes they go together but it's important to remember that for some people they can be different things and you can be one and not the other"
And go: "These are TOTALLY DIFFERENT 100 always separate there is no intersection EVER and if you DARE to be both then you have to piecemeal your identity to not uwu invalidate others(we do not care that we are invalidating you though lol) Don't you DARE ever experience them together you are CONFLATING"
It's like yall just want asexual to = alloromantic only and aromantic to = allosexual only.
You don't give a shit about aroaces, aces who aren't alloromantic but don't ID as aromantic or aros who aren't allosexual but don't ID as asexual.
The aspec community despises us. We get talked down to demanded to split our identities apart for your comfort. We can't exist in certain spaces because our presence there is a personal affront to allo-aspecs. Shout out to the alloaros that bitch about those disgusting aroaces just clogging up the aromantic tag ☺. Shout out to the alloaces who can still love and aren't totally heartless monsters 🥺.
Don't talk about ace shit in the aro tags, Don't talk about aro shit in the ace tags...what's that you're both? And can't neatly separate them and it brings you comfort to be able to discuss your whole orientation? SHUT THE FVCK UP YOU CONFLATING IGNORANT SHIT HEAD.
If you want to be in the aromantic community you have to leave your ace-ness at the door same for asexual community and disregarding your aromantism.
A personal example was an Aspec discord server I was in that had two media recs channels one for sex repulsed people and the other for romance repulsed. Now the issue came is that they didn't acknowledge someone could be both i.e both sex & romance repulsed/just looking for media that had neither sexual nor romantic content, what this lead too is that the romance free media channel was filled with graphic hookup erotica or sexually explicit songs and the sex free channel was just fade to black romance books 🙃...wonderful.
Or when polls/forms will ask you to pick your orientation but only things listed are het,gay,bi/pan yes even the ones made by aspecs, and what they actually mean is use the one that correlates to your romantic/sexual attraction...so fvck aroaces and non sam aces & aros?
And don't get me started on how you treat non sam aces & aros. You at least tolerate the self IDing aroaces, because they have the "curtesy" of separating themselves from the real proper aces & aros.(let's not question how many aroaces would prefer to just ID as just asexual or just aromantic but are forced into aroace identity because that would be "conflating" and they don't want to deal with the harassment).
"UwU don't say asexual when you actually mean aromantic" Some bitches don't use to SAM fvck off with allo-splaining my own sexuality to me.
It would be so much easier and save a lot of pain if yall just went : "asexual for some means no sexual attraction and it says nothing of your romantic attraction AND some people use it to mean no attraction generally". And "aromantic for some means no romantic attraction and it says nothing of your sexual attraction AND some people use it to mean no attraction generally" and "for some they are separated but others not so much as there isn't always a strict separation. Just be chill about it don't accuse people of being ignorant or conflating they know their identities better than you". But no ya chose violent aphobia instead.
But ultimately nobody cares because this shit is only harming the undesirable aces/aros the ones who are harmful stereotypes the ones that make you "look bad".
I know deep in my heart there are a lot of alloaces & alloaros that who would be happy if aroaces & non sam aces/aros didn't exist, there I said it. How can I not come to that conclusion when at every turn they shit on us. They talk about how the worst thing in the world is to be mistaken for one of us. That our representation is actively harmful.
A last parting spicy take it's either "asexulity and aromantism are full identities on their own and aren't modifiers" OR "actually neither asexual nor aromantic can stand on their own they need to be paired with another orientation and they actually are just modifiers" you can't have it both ways. 🤭
#asexual#aromanticism#aro#ace#non sam aro#aphobia#acephobia in the aro community#arophobia in the ace community#vent#i love how no matter what alloaces & alloaros can take a break from being aphobic to eachother and join forces where it really matters#being aphobic and hateful towards aroaces! I LOVE that aspec solidarity#the community also despises sex & romance repulsed aspecs but that's a rant for another day#also can we talk about how this has embolden full on allos to talk shit on aroaces??? excuse me???#when an allo bitch is talking down to you about how you're using asexual or aromantic wrong#bitch who the fvk are you? gtfo outta aspec spaces now interloper#aroace#non sam ace#I'm pissed so i might delete later lol#never forget the time on reddit i made a long post pleading with the community not to force the sam on all aces#and that non sam aces aren't ignorant or invalidating anyone and we should be shown grace and acceptance in the community#...only for an (allo?)ace to basically say it's my fault if people assume I'm alloace or accuse me of conflating if i ID as just ace#lol get bent#i just might start saying aces & alloaces/aros & alloaros#bc yall allo aspecs aren't the default ace/aro and it's time you learned that :)#you do not get to stomp over the “undesirables” and call it advocacy

saying "if aroace people can date, then can lesbians date men?" is absolutely aphobic narrative btw!
#sorry just have to say this lol#so tired of people generalizing all aroace people as romance averse#its absolutely erasure of the rest of the spectrum#the top tweet isnt so bad depending on who theyre talking about#if a character ACTUALLY is canonically romance/sex aversed then yea its weird to erase that#but if they're canonically AROACE and you go 'erm that character cannot date or have sex🤓☝️' ur being aphobic as fuck#the 'shown no attraction to anyone' part kind of throws me off there#i hate when people say 'well this character didnt have feelings for anyone in the one year time span of the show so theyre romance aversed-#and nobody can ship them or else i'll harass u and subtweet u!1!!'#like. a characters life may not involve sex or romance at all fucking times. that does not make them aroace.#ur headcanon- even if you think its based on a logical conclusion- is not reality#sometimes yall just be making shit tf up#complaining about 'fanon' as if ur not the one pretending ur hc is real and treating everyone else like theyre the bad ones#but if that tweet is just saying that IN ADDITION to theyre canon identity then yea. thats valid.#their* </3#obviously the reply is fucking disgusting#i couldnt reply directly cuz my twitter is priv#people will say this kind of shit to ME- AN AROACE PERSON#u preach about aro/ace erasure but when an actual aroace walks in you tell them their way of being aroace is wrong#not everyone is the fucking same.#non-partnering aroaces deserve more rep but telling partnering aroaces that their way of being aroace is wrong is genuinely horrific#like actually fuck u#aromantic#asexual#aroace#arospec#meowing (yapping)

It really is always "let fans explore," with the aromantic characters.
I will never forget some other explorations that were deemed homophobic and absolutely unacceptable by fans of media where, in the dialogue/text/narrative of the literal shows, the characters never say with their own mouths, "I'm gay." Oh but it's fine with an aromantic characters that the VA and indirectly the creator have said is aromantic.
#what comes to mind rn is Shiro from VLD getting straight and bi headcanons. Adora with the bowdora ship that happened.#and judge me i guess but genshin impact with every literal character bc theres no canon sexualities with the playable units but god forbid#you have a bi ship or straight ship.#gays are the biggest fucking hypocrites with fandom and what gets to be a 'real queer rep identity' and then what they get to be bigots#themselves with. aphobic gays are like this 🤝 with bigot mindsets the moment its not a gay queer character#and im blaming the alloaces rn bc they seem to be the biggest group aside from alloallos saying 'ITS A SPECTRUM'#as an arospec. i fucking know its a spectrum. aces never let me forget it bc being arospec and bi im often kicked from aro spaces#i just want aro characters that everyone agrees is perfect as 100% aro#yall are amatonormativity shills. aces included#aunt posting#💚

Once, just once, I would love for a show or series to have an aspec character and:
A) have it be confirmed in text
B) the fandom fucking respects it
#ahem. yes i am very annoyed#yall aren't ready for this but fandom can be so goddamn aphobic sometimes and its not just straight people#your compulsive need to ship everything and everyone who moves is exhausting#NOT tagging a fandom because this is a hot take i will be raked over the coals for#queueing this so i dont know when it comes out

YELENA BELOVA IS AROACE
so with the Thunderbolts* trailer being leaked, i’ve seem edits and edits of it and many comments about winterwidow and bucky x yelena.
let’s start off with the fact that forcing winterwidow in the mcu is wild, ESPECIALLY with nat’s sister in the movies/enemy in the comics. like bruuuh.
i have a whole ass post that’s linked in my pinned post about why yelena is aroace, she’s heavily implied aro and confirmed ace.
and before i hear that aroace’s can date, qprs are a thing shit. i will actually go on a killing spree yall.
I DO NOT GIVE A FLYING FUCK.
1. bucky’s role in the movie is minor as it was stated already before by someone i don’t remember who wtv.
2. yelena is aroace and if you don’t care you’re aphobic
3. qprs and aroaces in relationships are both a thing but yelena shows no interest in a romantic relationship and if they write her in one while keeping her aroace i just know it’s going to be a flop and aroace erasure, just cause aroaces can and do date doesn’t make them allo all of a sudden, they are still aroace just in a relationship, just like bi people in straight relationships aren’t straight and in gay relationships aren’t gay, they are bi, so they have bi experiences still.
Katelena also sucks ass and i hope we get ruthless comic yelena and yall hate her so i can love her and people who ship her can fuck off for once and all.
katelena sucks ass again because yelena is not a lesbian and says so herself.
“oh but comphet” 🥹
bruuuh. if there was a lesbian character who says “i’m bi” and everyone would hc her as a lesbian and say “but many lesbians people think they’re bi before they realise they’re lesbians.” you would be mad, cause that’s just wrong to say.
aroaces are queer they are a part of the lgbtqia
we are valid
we are nor broken
we don’t need romantic relationships or friends or family or a qpr to be fixed or normal
just let us exist i peace and have our little to no rep just like out attraction pls.

I’ve decided to make this blog for two reasons:
- a) I love submission blogs and I have a lot of character headcannons
- b) most the aspec submission blogs are inactive, and I can’t even find one that’s for the whole aspec community
- c) (ok so three reasons) I’m a part of the aspec community and I’d like us to share our aspec headcannons and ideas to make the aphobes angry!!
Hey hey hey, my name is Icarus, or Leonardo, though I go by many other names too, and I use he/she/they and it/fae/mer pronouns (shown in two separate lists for readability). I am a member of the aspec community and I run @ace-disgrace-withamace and the Instagram account @the.world.is.ace.here (along with my friend Rain)
I feel like i should include my whole label thingie here also because like. I’m running an aspec blog. So uh yeah
Im genderfluid, and sometimes agender
I am asexual
Now uh as for romantic orientation I am (checks notes)….
Demiromantic and aroflux as well as abroromantic and probably a ton of micro labels but I can’t remember them hooray
Ok so rules:
First of all, any hate speech of any kind will be deleted. I will not argue with bigots.
Aphobes of any kind are not allowed. Why would you be here anyways, it’s an aspec blog for stars sake
Characters are allowed to be submitted by different people multiple times, either with different headcannons or the same. This is because A) one character could be many different kinds of aspec B) I will not remember
Submit in the ask box please
All kinds of aspec headcannons are allowed, including aplatonic and afamilial (yall are just as valid, no matter what other people say)
Please do not submit any characters from Harry Potter or associated works by or involving J K Rowling.
Cannon submissions are allowed too!
Oh, also- please specify what media they’re from because I don’t want to accidentally do the wrong character
This may be updated at any time

I don’t know who’s being shitty to aces and aros but a lot of my aroace mutuals have been posting about people saying dumb shit on tumblr. And I just want yall to know is that literally being on the aro or ace spectrum is queer. People in the aromantic and asexual communities are my homies.
I used to ID on the ace and aro spectrum (although I don’t anymore) and I learned a lot about how to have a relationship on my own terms. That my body was my own and I didn’t owe anybody anything in regard to sex or to romance.
And how the expectation that I would be in a monogamous relationship for the rest of my life wasn’t fair and it was holding me back. I now currently identify as polyamorous but they helped me realize that we’re fighting the same problem of Amatonormativity.
Aros and aces of all stripes I value you. Your contributions to the community are worthwhile and meaningful. Your identity should not simply be validated but understood and respected.
If you’re on my blog or in the notes being aphobic I’m gonna hit you with a bat.

aphobic thinking of the day ahreee hahaha no no ok, but im just thinking- after anon mentioned NewMoon's new arc.. had me thinking of Moon as a whole..er- mostly his aro ace -since we are in pride !!
I got thinking on what he said last year, if he meets someone he may like , sure he may date em- but Moon never seems like the "romantic" nor the "flity" type , also his many gags at anything romantic was so clear to all .. he wasnt into romance not typical love stuffs - and he is believed to be sex repulsed
but then you have his other halves , KC and Eclipse- despite what most fan think, those are Moon's code- Eclipse more specially , is literally a "left over that became aware of itself" , so you see Eclipse with that more joyfull maliced, villain like act , sass that he most likely gaved to Lunar when he made him and Eclipse only keep the "smartness" so to say..but he had those when he show himself to us- he had trails of Moon still in him before he made Lunar- and after that we got the more calm- cold- paranoid version of Moon-Eclipse
then you have KC- yes tinder haha fuuny but-- yall know tinder is not to make friends! so.. yet another part of Moon- sure the homicidal code left there by Creator, yet another thing that became aware of itself - is showing desire for company..
so all of this to say.. is Moon fully sex reulsed? because Ace he is for sure! that no one will take away from him , but is the sex repulsed part that im wondering.. and no this is not because im aphobe - dont pull that on me, im only asking because too many parts of Moon have showed to want or have this likely to company .. maybe im looking too deep into jokes eh! puede ser!
but many solarmoon haters will pull the "he's sex repulsed" yet there's no much evidence- the gameplay is almost always not fully canon so we cant trusth it fully..
I think Old Moon was only a Demi Ace , who never found someone to spend time with, who never had interest in someone else, not like his other parts- Eclipse only showed interest in Sun and im saying this mostly without direction since he saw Sun as enemy - and KC mostly likely wanted to use his need of flesh in others ways , more to make and not to end lives..
and then we have New Moon. one would think that after he lost so many codes , he will be complete different- and he was.. for a short time, see someting I think when I ship em is that.. his system had to fill the holes left of ripping both KC and Eclipse out.. what ever that fill was had to be something related to it.
so say- killing coded? wshat about caring code? , now, anger and lust? what about calmness and self love?
is why he connected so well with Solar, not only is the only person he bonded in the most natural way, someone who didnt had that "you used to be" comment to give- but also someone who just connected so well- (because guess what! Solar is motly likely also a left over who needs other half to feel complete too!) so they like each other - not the romantic way- not the lust way (despite how I would love it)
is demi - ace love for the Win !! I see Moon as Demi, specially New Moon- and Solar too is someone who feels so Demi to me..
er yea. just that- got thinking of that last night- please no aphobe comments please- again im not attacking anyone who see any Moon as sex repulsed- yall valid too eh! im just bored and im a no one !
#sams#the sun and moon show#sams new moon theory time hahshs#nah but really- is just too much having parts of yourself who have sass and like hoomans to not think “uhm ain that odd” but also#also eclipse and kc are their own person so that also means nothing but let me have it please#I feel I descovered again im demi so I need to proyect myself

Hey, I'm so sorry your getting attacked and stuff-
I don't think I have much of a say in the solarmoon ship cuz I can't figure out if I'm a sex repulsed aroace or not but no one deserves to be attacked
Your right, it wasn't yall sex repulsed aroaces that started attacking the solarmoon ship. It was people who where trying to say their family and stuff and yall just ended up getting roped into it by trying to explain your opinions and stuff
And your also right that most people who ship it come with a side of aphobia. Not all, but most. Cuz instead of accepting that moons aroace canonly and just saying he isn't In their au, they're just straight up erasing and ignoring the fact he's aroace and using their au as a excuse to ship it
None of yall deserve to get attacked tho, especially you solarmoon shippers who aren't actually aphobic, and you sex repulsed aroaces who are just trying to get some representation
Idk man I guess it's my fault for expressing my opinion on discrimination against a community I'm a part of /s

honestly I find all of yall weird. Why do uou ship ANYONE? Can't they all just be friends? None of these people have chemistry to me.
-a very confused Ace who sometimes struggles to find stories without romance
(this goes double for canonically Ace and Aro characters, can yall chill out with them?)
I couldn't agree more, babes.
I generally only "ship" canon couples because they're the ones that are actually romantic. I usually just don't see potential with non-canon ships because the writers didn't put it there.
But canon relationships do sometimes suck. I just read this book where I already knew the MC would get married at the end, but I didn't know to whom. I was hoping she'd go for Malewife Coworker and not Exboyfriend of Ten Years, but guess who she went for? I just don't understand this fantasy that allo people write where two people who dated years ago are still in love? Like, if I had a friend who still loved their ex of ten years, I'd refer them to a therapist.
On top of that, people on the internet are so quick to label platonic relationships as "queerbaiting". I'm not saying queerbaiting doesn't exist (*cough* Supernatural *cough* Sherlock *cough cough*), but some of y'all are ridiculous. No, guys, it's not queerbaiting, the entire book is about how platonic love can be stronger than romantic love.
And the shipping canonically aro/ace characters makes me really uncomfortable. If I shipped a lesbian character with a man, I'd be bullied to hell. But when I point out that putting an aro character in a relationship is kinda aphobic, I'm the bad one? "Oh some aro people are interested in relationships" Yeah, that argument doesn't work when you apparently headcanon every aro character as wanting a relationship. Hazbin Hotel is the worst example. The creator basically just refuses to confirm Alastor as aro so she doesn't alienate the fans that like to ship him. And what about aro people? Are we not important enough to worry about alienating? It's like Genshin refusing to say Sumeru is based off Southeast Asia even though we already know it is so we can't get more mad at them for their colorism.
Anyway, check out the "no romantic relationships" tag on my blog for good fics. And I can also recommend books with no romance <3
