Are you...
Tumblr media
A-spec, or the a spectrum, is an umbrella term that encompasses both the asexual and aromantic spectrums and the many sexual and romantic orientations that are part of them.

so tired of ”character has no shown romantic/sexual interest in anyone, so clearly they’re gay!”
if someone shows no romantic/sexual interest, maybe consider THE IDENTITY THAT MEANS THAT instead of this!
(no offense to people who headcannon characters as gay, i’m just annoyed at amatonormativity today)

I think it’s incredibly important for young people to be able to think about their future, and imagine that they might be happy
And unfortunately, this is a feeling that is stolen from a lot of young aro people the second that they realize they’re aro
So I want to say it right now: You can be happy
You can have a queerplatonic partner. You can have a romantic partner. You can have the freedom of singlehood. You can be a virgin, or you can have sex. You can have kids. You can be childfree and just be the cool aunt/uncle/pibling. You can have a whole bunch of friends and a thriving community of people to hang out with every weekend. You can live all alone in the woods with your eleven dogs and your online crocheting business
There are so many options before you besides the typical “dating-marriage-kids” pipeline, and if you try to do what you think you’ll enjoy, I promise that you can be happy

Dear younger a-spec folks,
I'm not ancient by any means, but I do see a lot of teens and twenty-somethings on here posting about being a-spec and not being sure they should have posted it. Or saying they'll probably delete it in the morning.
And I just want to say, as someone in their mid-thirties who had very little support in all of this, and finally feels comfortable for the first time in their life embracing being aroace - you give me so much life and hope.
When I was a kid, platforms like this were not a thing.
So when I had one now ex-friend literally tell me that I made him feel uncomfortable because "a lack of attraction is inhuman," I felt inhuman.
Or when my mother constantly prodded at me about relationships and sex, or called me a prude, I saw that as a failing on my part.
Or when my friends thought it was hilarious when I was obviously uncomfortable as they described things I did not want to think about, I thought they were in the right, I figured I must just be humorless.
Or when people suggested my lack of engagement with the concept of love made me a psychopath, I thought that must be true too.
I had no one who understood how I felt so I assumed I must be wrong, and I tried so hard to fit in and say the right things, and date and be in relationships that were all inevitably doomed to fail.
I spent too much of my life thinking I was some sort of monster.
And looking at all your posts now, I really wish that very lonely girl and eventually very lonely young woman had had access to all of your incredible posts about being a-spec.
So in conclusion, when you post and aren't sure you should speak up, please keep speaking up. There is nothing wrong with us, and I am so thankful every time your posts come across my dash.
They mean the world to me.
And you never know if your post is going to be the one that makes someone realize that they get to be human too.

Communities I want to see represented (more) in media
Agender community
Xenogenders
Neopronouns

AroAllo people (aromantic allosexual)
A-spec identities that aren't just aromantic and asexual (e.g. demiromantic, greysexual, aroflux, demisexual)
Polyamorous people
Queerplatonic relationships
Religions other than Christianity
Gender-non-conforming trans people
Intersex people (thank you @prudr-ragr077 I was going to add this originally but forgot)

BODIES are not inherently sexual. you can be naked and have nothing at all to do with sex. this is a lesson i think most media and people need to learn
