im not keen to forgive the damage ace/aro (henceforth shortened to just ace) community has fucking done to lgbt people
the sam model - reinforces homo / bi / lesbophobia in so many fucking ppl
‘you can have sex w/o being attracted’ - literally conversion therapy rhetoric
all the 'this person is ace’ abt gay coded characters bc they have no understanding of how being gay was cencored throughout history
copying coming out / “aphobe” from homophobe / dragon v cake bs ripped off of butch/femme but without being actually good
'us pan/bi/trans/ace ppl must unite against the evil LGs’ as if that a. makes sense when bi/trans ppl bave more in common w lesbian and gay ppl than ace ppl and b. isn’t just an excuse to use historical intercommunity issues to try and divide us further rather than fucking being an ally
finally. trying to label every little thing about HOW you experience sexuality when its always been about WHO before ace, labels like demi / lithro / recipro / whatever are all bullshit and very fuckng individual - people spend so much time trying to label every facet of their id nad it is not helpful or useful. there is no difference between me and someone who is demi, except they have a useless label
finally. thanks for poisoning our spaces and making them unsafe for l g b or t people to be in !
