#ace community

Many Aces go through a process where they learn what society conventionally considers "sexy" and learn how to feign sexual attraction, without experiencing it themselves, based on those standards. This is known as "hacking the allo-gorithm"

More people need to hear this: all asexuals are valid, no matter where you fall under the umbrella, and no matter the "reason" you're asexual. You can be naturally ace, ace because of meds, ace because of dysphoria, ace because of trauma, ace because of a disease... Any reason that has an impact on your way to live your (a)sexuality, makes you a valid asexual and you're welcome in the community. Fuck the aphobes and the radicals who say otherwise.

People seemed to really like last year's critters, so I'm back to celebrate Ace Week again with some more simple little artworks of silly little creatures. ✨Keep being amazing, fellow aces.✨

any type of censorship over LGBTQIA+ age appropriate themes / movies / books in schools is outright discrimination and should be called out as such

"Remember that ace/aro people might someday feel sexual/romantic attraction."

Actually remember that allo people might suddenly stop feeling romantic attraction. Sexuality and romantic attraction are fluid which means sometimes you completely lose them, and it's not something tragic or always part of trauma. People don't need to be gold star aro or ace to be valid or not to be seen as inherently sad.

Reblog to make someone in a healthy relationship suddenly realize they're aro and only ever want to have casual sex, often with people they barely know.

Reblog to make someone whose been completely allosexual their entire life realize they're ace and stop having any libido, or even wanting to be touched.

Some things I feel like we rarely talk about:

Aces who were pressured to have sex when they were in a relationship even though they didn’t want to do it

Aces who are afraid to get into a relationship because they fear they’d feel pressured to have sex

Aroaces who are scared of being alone their entire life

Aces who read posts saying that them not having sex with their partner is abusive

Aros being surrounded by couples

Aroaces feeling pressured to find great friends and/or passions in life not to feel left out

I feel you all <3

I haven't had a problem with the "why don't you have a relationship?" question during family dinners ever since i started responding with "because i don't want it to go like your marriage" and i can recommend this to everyone who can afford to show a little sass to their relatives

I feel like some people within the aspec community need to check themselves for aphobia like it's seriously concerning. I'm not just talking about internalized aphobia btw, I'm also talking about straight up aphobia against other members of the community.

If you're ace, that does not mean you are immune to being arophobic. Same goes if you're aro, you are not immune to being acephobic.

If you're aroace, you could also be aphobic without it necessarily being what could be considered as "internalized" (e.g. being aphobic to a favorable aroace when you're repulsed, being aphobic to aroaces who are non-partnering when you're partnering, being aphobic to loveless aros when you aren't loveless or lovequeer aros when you aren't lovequeer, etc. etc.).

That's not even talking about the amatonormativity in the community either.

Ace rings and Aro rings. What are they?

An ace ring is a black ring, usually worn on the middle finger of the right hand, that indicates you are on the asexual spectrum. An aro ring is the basically the same thing just white and worn on your left hand on the middle finger. Placement is important since other communities us rings to identify themselves. Many people on the spectrum don’t know about the rings, so it is often times a more personal symbol. Even if you never meet another ace or someone who knows about the rings, I still think it’s a nice step of personal acceptance and way to display yourself! It’s just a really neat way to embrace your ace-ness and/or aro-ness!

Some people go with plain black and plain white., but others like their rings with a little bit more to them. Some people might go out even further and get rings that are dragon-like. The meaning of this is explained in this post of mine. There are even rings out there with the ace of spades (and other suits) which the meaning of that is explained in one of my previous posts. There are also cool rings out there that are less subtle that have the aro flag colors, ace flag, colors, and the sunset aroace flag. Overall, just the normal ace ring, a black ring with embellishments, and any other ace symbols are used by people! People have all sorts of different rings that fit within the aro/ace ring vibe.

Feel free to reblog and get this info out there! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
