New England Aces

New England Aces is a group for asexual and aromantic individuals and allies. We are committed to values of inclusivity, intersectionality, and social justice.

Happy Pride, all! Just a friendly reminder that while we've been quiet on social media, we are still very much an active community, with virtual and in-person events and discussions. If you're interested in joining the community, go to https://t.co/90STqtK42y

To all aces and aros out there - I hope you're spending today doing something joyous, and/or with joyous people. And if not, I hope you take care of yourselves. Take the time and space for the healing you need. Today, you deserve it. 🖤🤍💜

Always good to see more aspec research out there. Ace folks, if you have a chance, consider filling out this survey, 'Laboratory asexuality research: perceptions of the Ace community': https://t.co/6C9a2HrZyi

And thanks to @PorchArts too!

[New England Aces @NewEnglandAces]

Thanks to @huntington for having us at rehearsal for K-I-S-S-I-N-G, by @lenellemoise, to consult on ace rep in the play, and then afterward for the opportunity to attend two performances and conduct a Q&A with the audience!

[New England Aces @NewEnglandAces]

Black ace male representation is RARE, and this play does a great job. We loved the show and recommend y'all check it out. (Digital tickets are available too): https://t.co/LLX8M1lsSp

We were excited to see @je_somerton center Asexual issues. It's rare and we desperately need more allyship for & from all corners of the queer community, but 4 minutes we were disappointed at the inaccuracy. Respectfully we want to add to the conversation https://t.co/oEGA1cFZHD

[New England Aces @NewEnglandAces]

"'A'" is for Asexual Liberation" was an excellent discussion, refreshingly not a 101 primer. And it was wonderful to be in community with so many other aspec folx - not just during the event, but for hours after!

[New England Aces @NewEnglandAces]

Thanks so much to @BU_Diversity's #LearnMoreSeries for bringing @chengela and @davidgljay (@asexuality) to Boston this past Thursday for excellent conversation, community, and (of course) cake! 🖤💜🍰

[New England Aces @NewEnglandAces]

Loving that #AceWeek leads up to Halloween and coincides with autumn in New England. Our group didn't host an official event for the week, but some of us got together to explore @HauntedOverload yesterday, and more are hiking together today. 🎃🍂🖤💜

[New England Aces @NewEnglandAces]

The support of @AceGentle's mom makes my heart so happy. 🍰

I've been putting up celebratory maps as cities and states recognize Ace Week, but I'll end the week with this map. This is a current list of states where asexual people are protected by anti-discrimination laws.
Only New York has an explicit protection for ace people.
