What can a body do? What can care do? How are we dependent on one another, and what are the categories we put in place to define what kind of care we give to which bodies? Isn’t that also what we’re asking when we ask "what is love"? https://t.co/U5qsdoDgwu

New post up on the blog... I got kind of irritated about representation and wrote a bit of a rant. https://t.co/XMQ10zhehU

"Was I still asexual if I had sex? Was I still asexual if I longed for the warmth of physical touch? Was I still asexual if I loved the softness of skin, kissing and tight hugs on my tiptoes?" Incredible & relatable article from Joyce Chung at the @ubyssey https://t.co/Rafk9VJZeQ

There's a new post up on our blog! Tora wrote an exciting article about a @hiveandhouse workshop she attended a while back. Check it out: https://t.co/lMmmdAYMEA #cohousing #qprs

I love this resource! As this article notes, "even though asexual representation is getting much more common, it is still sometimes hard to find out which books feature asexual characters". Lovin this rep 🙌

In 2019 I want people to stop using stats from the 90s about how many ace or trans folks are around. Aces are around 4-5% according to GLAAD now, not 1%

just wrote a 1000 word paper in under half an hour and I don't know whether to be frightened or impressed by my own power

[notbanging @notbangingblog]

Yes!! Plus, it explores non-traditional family and how people negotiate what that means. I've never seen that in any other YA novel. One of my very favourite books <3

[notbanging @notbangingblog]

A good thread.

@SinEater_Danyi @asexuality @AsexualJournal Can’t wait to see what you create!!!

[Sarah ♠️🏳️‍🌈 @a_weirdwriter]

Time to clear the air: Asexuality is a lack of sexual attraction. This does not mean that all aces don't enjoy sex, libido and sex drive are separate to attraction. Some aces love sex, some are indifferent and some hate the mere thought of it.
