Attraction and desire are not the same thing, and that's what confuses people.
We don't choose not to feel attraction until a condition is met; our brain simply doesn't generate any hormones. We don't feel primary attraction (2/5)
Like by saying "maybe im not woke enough" etc, it makes people comfortable and feel theyre in good company to tear down others. Just wish people would stop having an opinion on asexuality before reading even a smidgen of information on it because this is what you allow to happen.
Im glad someone finally listened and accepted their mistake in speaking about aspec people before fully understanding us, but the way the replies are filled with aphobes still continuing to argue goes to show how easy it is to give assholes the confidence to be assholes.
im deeply sorry for that quote tweet and after gaining insight from the quotes and friends’ replies i realize it was very aphobic. i am so sorry to have discriminated anyone and, as we all should, i will always continue to have an open mind and never stop learning how i can (1/2)
you guys are so weird about asexuals. No, asexuality is not the same thing as libido nor does asexuality mean that you can't be another sexuality along with it.
it takes one google search to learn those, no need to be a dick just because you refuse to understand
I feel like every person should, regardless of their orientation, really look into their own seperation of sexuality, attraction, gender and their relationship to them, cause I genuinely think once you do, you wouldn't be that confused over these differences in labels
I'm not asexual and I relate to NONE of the asexual labels y'all call "being a normal human" maybe you guys are just asexual in denial? Or you don't understand them.
I think that it’s important to note that micro labels exist for every sexuality, and if you don’t understand it, then it’s probably just not for you. Most holders of micro labels are not going to insist that you know it unless you’re in a relationship or very close to them
Because you people are uneducated and think having sex is the same as being sexually attracted to people.
Action. Does not. Equal. Attraction.
When aces say use these analogies, we mean attraction, not the act of sex itself.
