Asexy Vida

Asexuality (sometimes referred to as nonsexuality), in its broadest sense, is the lack of sexual attraction to others[ or the lack of interest in sex. It may also be considered a lack of a sexual orientation. One commonly cited study published in 2004 placed the prevalence of asexuality at 1%. I'm starting this as a place to support members of the asexual community and to inform the curious.

Ask me anything, About my pronouns, my personal/love life, What it's like to be an Ace, I'm here to help and if your curious I'm likely to have an answer.
We are not Common but we are not alone.

General reminder that if someone tells you not to touch them, you shouldn’t

  1. continue to touch them. 
  2. make a scene and attempt to defend yourself.
  3. attempt to prove why you should be allowed to touch them. 
  4. attempt to make the person feel bad for not wanting to be touched. 
  5. continue to touch them. 
  6. continue to touch them.

lovekn0wsnogender:

Bill O’Reilly said Tuesday that the opponents of same-sex marriage have been unable to do anything but “thump the Bible” in their arguments.

Speaking to Megyn Kelly about the Supreme Court’s hearing on Proposition 8, O’Reilly—who has previously compared gay marriage to bestiality—appeared to…

So I’ve been busy with not-Tumblr for awhile, and even before that it’s been ages since I wrote anything myself…

     But this bothered me. I was at a club meeting for a religious comparisons group awhile book which includes multiple asexy people. There was a newcomer to the group… lets call her X. Now X at first seemed like a pretty cool kind of person- until she opened her mouth. She started complaining that asexy-1(as I will refer to them) was butting into her business giving her relationship advice.

That was no problem. What wasn’t ok was X’s reasoning.

X: “Asexy-1 has no business giving relationship advice, {they} are asexual!”

Me: Um… excuse me? How is that a factor

Of course a friend of mine immediately jumped in and commented on X’s rudeness but still…

What is it about being Ace that makes people assume you can’t understand normal human emotion and reasoning? I promise I’m still human.

I’m just thankful for the good friends I’ve found to stand up for me.

Hey, people of tumblr.

The first few suggestions on google for “asexuality is…” are pretty nasty.

So. Right now I’m doing my best to change that. Anyone wanna help? When you get time, just google awesome/nice things, like:

  • Asexuality is awesome
  • Asexuality is okay
  • Asexuality is cool with me bro
  • Asexuality is not a sin
  • Asexuality is not wrong
  • Asexuality is totally an orientation
  • Asexuality is real

That kind of thing. Good? Good. (Thanks in advance).

Southpaw: The Cassandra Experience

minato-rise-up:

I propose the word “Cassandra’d” in response to needing a word to describe negative ace experiences since sexual privilege is a no go and not wholly accurate and so we can stop derailing important conversations by people taking issue with the fact asexual experiences are not…
