some dumbasses really think that all aromantics dont experience romantic attraction/love because of trauma. it COULD be like that for a few people, but not every single aro???

this is literally the same gotcha transphobes have about autistic trans people, calling them 'confused' because they 'dont know whats right for them' and that its because theyre autistic that they feel that way. (this is an example)

especially with the infighting of the lgbtqia+ community itself. ive seen some lgbtqia+ folk invalidating people's aromanticism.

leave aro/ace folk alone please. if you dont understand aromanticism, you dont deserve to comment on it.

Sorry to be Ace (not sorry) but it seems like every fic I’ve been reading this week has had a lot of sex scenes. And like I know I can just skip them, but I’m always worried I’ll skip something important.

Hi! This is probably weird, sorry, but I just wanted to say I’ve been binging The Newest Olympian and I just listened to the interview you did with Mike about Asexuality and Aromanticism and Artemis and I loved it!! I’m in a very similar position as you (ID as Ace, in a relationship with a non-Ace partner) and it was really nice hearing you talk about your experiences, so thank you!! :)

It's not weird at all! Thank you so much. It really makes me happy to read this especially at Pride ^.^

Are LGBTQ labels confusing? Do you ever see a collection of words and think "aren't some of those antithetical or mutually exclusive?" Congratulations! You've run into a very interesting phenomenon that I'm about to break down to the best of my ability.

There's two major philosophies when it comes to labels, they don't have names to my knowledge so I'm gonna call them Reflective and Telegraph.

The Telegraph Label philosophy states that labels primarily function as a means of conveying useful information about one's self to others. It's telling others what pronouns, what parts and what genders that person has or is attracted to. This is usually pretty straightforward, the stuff someone interested in dating you would check before asking you out to avoid embarrassment.

The Reflective Label philosophy states that labels are primarily a tool for describing an internal experience. Putting words to feelings for the benefit of the self. This is how we get lables like stargender or autismgender. These aren't meaningfully useful labels that tell others what to expect physically or what pronouns to use. But that doesn’t mean they're useless. In the case of someone using autismgender, that label probably describes the internal experience of the ways a person's autism impacts their views on and performance of gender. Stargender likely explains not that they literally see themselves as a star but rather that their internal experience of their prefered gender performance makes them feel a way that reminds them of stars or stargazing.

And this applies to sexuality too. Boy lesbian might seem antithetical but ultimately that label isn't there to tell others anything. It's merely a comfort to have words to describe a mess of feelings and social dynamics.

And for clarification, anyone calling themselves a boy-lesbian probably isn't the cis male boogieman forcing lesbians who aren't interested in cis men to date them or else be labeled a bigot. That boogieman doesn't exist. A more likely explanation is that a nonbinary or trans person has a complex relationship with their changing gender that doesn't trigger a change in the way they see themselves in relationships and attraction thus causing them to keep or adopt the lesbian label despite the gender weirdness going on.

I see a lot of infighting about what people call themselves and whether or not certain combinations can even physically exist. And Y'know what? I don't think that's terribly productive. Neither philosophy is wrong. People are just using labels to address different root problems.

As aggravating as it might be for Telegraphers, you don't have to understand everything. Not everyone feels that they owe you the list of information you find useful, and their labels reflect that. And that's okay.

poll idea: did you realize you were queer before or after playing splatoon?

- before

- after

- not queer

Please Reblog For a Bigger Sample Size!

The term "Queer" is being used in this case to refer to someone falling outside of heterosexuality and possibly even being Cisgender.
