reblog if you're aromantic and not soft or cute or fluffy. i feel like so many aromantic people feel like they need to make themself 'more human' by forcing these qualities onto themselves, and that's fucking sad. you are human. your aromanticism does not make you less human. you do not have to fucking 'redeem' yourself over being aromantic. your anger and your rage and your unapologetic lovelessness and heartlessness are also human. don't hide them in order to appeal to aphobes.
so yeah, reblog if you're aromantic and angry and intense and sharp around the edges and refuse to play the 'acceptable aro' game. i adore you.

Let me just say as someone who hides a lot of myself in public how nice it is to see aroace and gender flux folks like me being unapologetically proud of expressing their nonbinary attraction and identity. I’m proud of you and I want to be like you when I grow up….even though I’m 35

I love being aromantic. It’s so nice to not live with the expectations of a romantic relationship. It’s nice to be my own person and be able to experience them freely. It’s nice for no one to have to be superior to anyone in my mind- to not have a hierarchy. It’s nice to have friendship. It’s nice to go out with your friends and do all those things that are supposed to be romantic but as a platonic intent. I love being aromantic. I love being the colour green. I love the flag. I love tearing down amatonormativity and social values. I love the culture. I love the tiny aromantic hints I’ve had my entire life. I love aromantic music. I love taking the romance out of love songs. I love not just viewing life as a time to fulfill romance. I love having all these hidden aromantic symbols. I love queer platonic relationships. I love other aromantic people. I love talking about being aromantic. I love being aromantic- I love being myself.

I think it’s incredibly important for young people to be able to think about their future, and imagine that they might be happy
And unfortunately, this is a feeling that is stolen from a lot of young aro people the second that they realize they’re aro
So I want to say it right now: You can be happy
You can have a queerplatonic partner. You can have a romantic partner. You can have the freedom of singlehood. You can be a virgin, or you can have sex. You can have kids. You can be childfree and just be the cool aunt/uncle/pibling. You can have a whole bunch of friends and a thriving community of people to hang out with every weekend. You can live all alone in the woods with your eleven dogs and your online crocheting business
There are so many options before you besides the typical “dating-marriage-kids” pipeline, and if you try to do what you think you’ll enjoy, I promise that you can be happy

me before realizing i'm aroace: why is everyone so obsessed with romance? sex sounds so gross. i don't want to have kids or marry anyone. why do people my age care so much about crushes? i don't want to date anyone.
me after realizing i'm aroace: it all makes sense now.

Growing up as aromantic / asexual:
In my childhood and adolescence
Tumblr media
After 10 years of desensitization by watching popular media...
Tumblr media
...and after few months on Tumblr
Tumblr media
I did not even realize how much fed up I already was with all the cisheteronormative couples struggling with stereotypical "gender roles" dilemmas, "traditional family" conflicts and "social expectations" of patriarchal world...
I mean how many times can you watch the same issues over and over again when none of it ever was part of your own not-partnering single life in the first place?
