- “that’s a good point and i appreciate your input but i disagree”

- “i don’t know enough about xyz to form an educated opinion but i can share what i do know”

- “i have actually spent a lot of time studying/interacting with xyz and my opinion is informed by this close study”

- “sorry, i lied because i was afraid you would think badly of me. here is the truth”

- “i enjoy your company and would like to spend more time with you”

- “this task is beyond my ability at the moment”

- “can you explain precisely what you mean by xyz, i don’t understand”

- “i need to go home and rest/i need a break before we continue”

- “this conversation/activity isn’t pleasant or productive, let’s talk about/do xyz instead”

-“i’m having a really good time, thank you for joining/inviting me”

I made a post so bad that everyone, including pornbots, unfollowed me, excluding one person that I knew IRL who kept following me. I saw him at school the next day and he said, “Sorry man,” before showing me that he was unfollowing me as well.

Ace and aro have never meant only lack of attraction. There's always been debate on different definitions, and many reasons to ID as ace and aro.

I was on a large dark spiral stage at a convention with real fantasy creatures and was suddenly involved in a rap battle.

Sometimes, a fic doesn't have to get published, it can just be a series of messages on a Discord channel, between a dedicated group of friends going "oooh, you know what else would be cool?" continuously over a period of weeks and months :)

Sometimes I look at the moon and I think I understand what it's like to be in love

But then I talk to allos and am lost once again

I feel like I made this post before #Or at least something hella similar #chris rambles #aromantic #actually aromantic #aro #actually aro #aromantic joke #aro joke #late night posting #that's a tag I haven't used in a while #Don't mind me I'm just writing something kinda unhinged #and scheduling it to late at night so I can pretend I was sleep deprived when I wrote it #but now I'm telling y'all so it doesn't really matter

Having internet friends is an experience. Did you eat today? I can't believe your sister hasn't apologized yet, what a bitch. Drink a glass of water right now. Want to see a cat picture? I love you. I know you better than your parents. I don't know your name. I'm having a rough day, can you talk to me about your favorite videogame? I love you. Good morning means good night means good afternoon means go to sleep. Here's a doodle I made in class. I'm stealing your clothes as we speak, they're so pretty. I love you. I love your pet. What does your hair look like? I'd love to see that weird leaf. I love you. I'm making you your favorite food. Thank you for holding my secrets for me. I love you. We're having a coffee date. I love you. I'm giving you a screen-sized hug. I love you. I love you. I love you.

What is the Difference Between Sex-Positive and Sex-Favorable?

While these two phrases are used interchangeably, especially when referring to asexuals, they are not synonymous with each other and each have their own definition and culture behind them.

According to Oxford Language, the definition of sex-positive is “having or promoting an open, tolerant, or progressive attitude toward sex and sexuality”. Sex-positivity seeks to reduce the stigma topics surrounding human sexuality, health, and pleasure. Sex-positive regards all consensual activities as something fundamentally healthy and pleasurable. The term became popular in the 1990s as a more palatable term for the sex liberation movement. Sex-positivity removes the taboo from the topic of sex.

Sex-positivity includes things like engaging in fantasies, communication your sexual needs, advocating for your own sexual health, not judging others for their own consensual sexual practices, advocating for comprehensive sex education, experimentation etc.

Sex-favorable on the other hand is defined by the LGBTQIA+ Wiki as “a sex stance that describes an individual who is favorable towards or enjoys the act or concept of sexual interaction”. People who are sex-favorable may enjoy sexual content, enjoy sex, and seek our sexual relationships whether that be to enhance romantic relationships or for other reasons.

Someone may feel favorable towards certain sexual acts and feel indifferent to repulsed towards others. The term sex-ambivalent may be used to describe this.

Sex-positive is described as more of a political position and your position on sex in a broader context whereas sex-favorable is more of a personal stance and your personal feelings about sex.

You can be sex-positive and not sex favorable. For instance, I would say I lean more towards sex-neutral (my overall position on sex in a broad context), but I am also sex-ambivalent (how I personally feel towards the act or the concept of sexual interaction). You can read this post for more about sex-ambivalence and my explanation of it based off my experience.

Additionally, these labels aren’t just limited to asexual or aromantic people. People can be sex-positive, sex-favorable, whatever regardless of their preferences.

I’d like to close with saying that I know these terms can be a bit confusing and complicated. You may mix them up, but I hope this helps clear up the issue for everybody and helps to clarify exactly what both of these terms mean.
