People tend to talk more or try to explain more about their insecurities to people without even realising.
Example:you might feel very conscious about ur writing so when people sit next to you in class or ask to look at ur work you say "it's rlly messy tho" and rant a little bit.
The thing I like about finally figuring out your sexuality is it's like a mystery tv show and the mystery is explained at the end by the detective (you) from hints throughout the film (throughout ur life) and the people watching (and you) do that collective "ohh yeah makes sense"
What if the origin of asexuality was cuz of the whole yk raping past and it just became part of genetic trauma & we needed a name for being to the extent that we don't want to get fucked full stop. Honestly a slay idk... would make sense why aroace would have been around for aons
