πŸ“’ asexuality is not celibacy πŸ“’ asexuality is rarely/never experiencing sexual *attraction* to another person. nothing to do with sexual *action*. celibacy is making the decision to not have sex, despite sexual attraction or desire. celibacy is a choice. asexuality isn’t.

being Queer means having so much anger at politics all the time. fighting for our existence against constant corruption & vilification. it’s inhumane. but resistance means possibility for freedom. with anger comes passion, determination to make change, & most vital of all, hope.

β€˜FRIGID’: what it means, and how it’s damaging to asexual folk. 🧡 frigid is a derogatory, offensive term, to refer to somebody (usually a woman) who lacks sexual desire. β€˜frigid’ also has other definitions including β€œvery cold in temperature”, and β€œunfriendly or very formal”.

what are you doing to financially support single mothers? to stop police violence against women? to improve perinatal mh services? to increase funding for womens’ health research? to lessen the gender pay gap? that’s what protects women and girls. not being a transphobic bigot.

just had a man come into my DMs pretending to be interested in asexuality and how ace people experience sexual desire and sexual action… only for him to say β€œso l’ve gotta take you out on a date to hear that stuff?” when I wouldn’t talk to him about my own personal sex life πŸ™ƒ

when you see fatphobia, call it out. fat folk deserve a life free from discrimination, abuse, assumptions, bullying, and shame. especially fat people of colour, fat trans folk, fat disabled people, fat neurodivergent folk, and any other intersectionality.

Love is love - but that just doesn’t cut what is happening to the LGBTQIA+ community around the world, particularly Trans+, intersex and Ace communities.

reminder that there is a difference between mental *health* and mental *illness*. moving more might benefit your mental *health*, but it won’t cure a mental *illness*. moving more might help you feel better after a shitty day at work, but it won’t cure clinical depression.

@Kaleidoscope_T hi, please can I ask why you don’t include the Q or the A in the acronym LGBTQIA+? as the UK’s leading charity for LGBTQIA+ human rights, it’s really concerning that queer, asexual, aromantic, and agender people aren’t included in your activism or manifesto πŸ˜•

a reminder to myself and my fellow aces: we are whole. we are not missing something, we just don’t experience sexual attraction in the same way that others do. and in my opinion, if anything, that makes us even more special. 🩡 read the full post here:

sick of this private school debate. private schools exist to perpetuate inequality, to give rich kids advantages that working class kids could only dream of. imagine if that money was invested in state schools. imagine the difference that would make to overall equality.

so disappointed in the new uk gov report regarding trans suicide & gender-affirming care. irl I’m a suicide prevention professional, so most of my analysis & advocacy about this will be done in my professional life. but for the record, gender-affirming care IS suicide prevention.

… hiding their asexuality due to feeling unsafe/unsupported, or following their own internalised acephobia. all of these things are traumatic for an asexual person to experience.

I felt super sad yesterday, because none of my non-ace friends wished me a happy ace day. I hoped they would, which feels a bit silly, but it’s true now I’m reassuring myself that I have a vast ace community online who celebrated with me yesterday, & that’s way more important πŸ’œ

πŸ–€ 1 - it contributes to the incorrect assumption that aces lack sexual desire, but asexuality is actually about *attraction*, not desire. this perpetuates misinformation about asexuality, meaning aces experience more invalidation & misunderstanding about their identity.

this thread can be applied to everyone regardless of sexuality. but bcos asexuality is so often misinterpreted as β€œjust not wanting to have sex”, the impacts of the word β€˜frigid’ are higher for aces. allies, if you hear people calling someone β€˜frigid’ we need you to call it out!

@fantomclaw feeling broken is a really common experience for ace people! because the society sees allosexuality (any kind of sexual attraction for another person) as the norm, asexuality is often viewed as wrong or weird. I’ve definitely felt like I’m not whole before.

🩢 2 - it associates asexuality with being cold, unfriendly, unfeeling. this contributes to the damaging belief that aces lack humanity, & need β€˜curing’ or β€˜fixing’. this attitude leads to aces being excluded from the LGBTQIA+ community, & at further risk of conversion therapy.

🀍 3 - it shames asexual folk who are sex-repulsed or apothisexual, or who choose not to have sex for any reason. shame is an emotion which can lead to many mental health difficulties including depression, due to the isolation and low self-esteem that shame can cause.
