I love how I started out writing a comic book, while thinking I must be cis and pan, and now that I’m nearing the end of it, I’m trans, non-binary, and aroace. Granted, before that I thought I was cishet, and kinda just denying way too many fucking things about myself. Upon admitting them through storytelling, I somehow feel much much gayer. This is probably because I feel more comfortable in my skin now. Thank you for my TEDTalk.
So I’m aroace...pretty sure I’m repulsed by romance and sex, but like sometimes the romance is just fucking cute and sex scenes are just a bore...like dude....I’m lookin’ for actual plot (also sometimes when they come up I’m like...welp I guess it’s a death day). Anyways, I’m working on being romance and sex positive because I wanna respect other people, even if I don’t necessarily understand it. But also when I read loveless I didn’t necessarily know I was aroace...and I was like “I gotta experience some ATTRACTION!”...so I thought I was aroflux/aceflux and then I saw Jaiden Animations video and it finally clicked...but now I know why I thought many things were stange. HURRAH!!! Also a-spec peeps, have some cake or garlic bread or really just some food...cause food is legit.
“if the clootie dumpling gives you a button youre gonna be single forever”
my aroace ass:
It's the sudden realisation that attraction is actually a thing that people experience and isn't just 'oh they look cool...' Also like the experience of faking crushes to try and fit in cause I didn't understand why I didn't actually feel anything for anyone.
If your gonna talk shit about me, at least do it correctly lmao. Yeah, I misread you to be 20 in your blog when you actually wrote yourself as 'late 20s' in your bio. That was my bad. With the 'infantilising aces' claim though...
"Aint no way you call infantilisation a privilege" suggests that aces portrayed as "uwu innocent aces" or "pure aces" are infantilising. You were comparing the portrayal of aces vs the portrayal of aros. You did not claim that aces were innocent or pure, you were accounting the portrayal of aces. Thus, you didn't infantilised aces and there's no evidence of me claiming that you were infantilise aces. And given your response, "not being stereotyped as a sexual predator is a privilege" instead of something like "I am not infantilising aces" means that you knew my intended message was about the infantilised portrayal of aces, not accusing you of infantilising aces.
"are aroallos old evil predators or are we young people not knowing what we're talking about?" How did I even imply your a predator? Is it this reply?
Because that doesn't even suggest aroallos are predators. It's talking about one of asexual's major struggles; corrective rape. It is a type of rape specifically to "fix" someone's sexuality. According to sources such as MCSA, 43.5% of Asexuals experienced sexual violence. This was in order to highlight that the infantilised portrayal of asexuality is not a privilege due to not only the portrayal was in order to make asexuality invalid or not to be taken seriously, but it is even more of a disgusting portrayal when combined with the fact that asexuals have gone through sexual violence for their sexuality to be "fixed." In no way does the reply even mention aroallos in any form. How you can even come to that conclusion is beyond me. Plus the "or are we young people not knowing what we're talking about?"
"Your 20, aren't you going to college?" Suggests that you should be more smarter because you are an adult/at least older than me and college is one of an advanced form of education as a highlight. Me thinking you were 20 didn't mean I thought you had no idea what you were talking about. If anything, it was the opposite because I thought at the age of 20, you should already know better. Your not 20, I know that now, stupid of me as I misread your bio. My point still stands that it's not that your age makes you dumb, it's that you said something dumb despite your age.
"i'm a predator until you don't like my opinion." What does this even mean and who even said that to you? Cuz it's definitely not me.
All of this also shows that there was no arophobia and aroallophobia. My guy, if you don't like the criticism I gave you then that's fine. It's you making false claims about me to not be though.
not arophobes complaining about me "infantilising aces" (which i didn't) but then deciding that "late 20s" actually means 20. which one is it? are aroallos old evil predators or are we young people not knowing what we're talking about? i'm a predator until you don't like my opinion.
if you can't even tell the difference between 20 and late 20s you shouldn't be on the internet. aroallophobes are fucking cretins my god.
I'm an artist/author whose mind give me stories from the most absurd origins you could've think of!
I am aroace so my stories will often have aro, ace and aroace characters. I do showcase more aromanticism within my stories as my aromanticism affects me more than my aceness and I do want to see aros be more represented and recognised within media.
I have a personal website, a strawpage, a bluesky and an a03 account for my artistic projects. New accounts to platform my stories will be further updated.
That's all their is to know about me, enjoy!
Tell your friends and family you love them!!!!!!
Thought of this while taking a walk in park and listening to Conan Gray...
