Asexuality Awareness Week 2023: Visibility for the Invisible Orientation

[I am interning with a nonprofit focused on queer advocacy, and I wrote a piece about my experience with asexuality and a short primer on what asexuality is for their newsletter in honor of ace week, which can be found linked above. Unfortunately, for reasons of space, I had to shorten my personal story. This also meant cutting out a reference to how @comicaurora (in her role as OSP's Red) is directly responsible for me figuring out my asexuality (so thanks). To remedy this, my earlier draft with the longer story is included below the read more. Also, nothing on this blog should be construed as the official stance or opinion of Georgia Equality, my opinions are my own.]

Do you know what the A in LGBTQIA+ stands for? Until a few years ago, I assumed I was correct in my belief that it meant ally, a description that I was also fairly confident applied to me. Then, towards the end of 2021, I started watching the YouTube channel Overly Sarcastic Productions and YouTube, therefore, started recommending me related content, including a video entitled “OSP Red being an asexual icon for 5 minutes”. As it happens, Red and Blue, the creators of OSP, are both asexual, which is what the A actually stands for (along with aromantic and agender). Within a few months of seeing that video (and then many others like it), I was identifying as asexual, and the only reason I hadn’t known I was asexual all my life is that I didn’t know it was a thing that I could be. This is a story not unique to the asexual experience, but the degree of ignorance about and erasure of asexuality, even within the LGBTQIA+ community, has led to its being known as the “invisible orientation” and this invisibility is why events such as Ace Awareness Week (the last full week of October) and International Asexuality day (April 6th) are so important. It’s not just about showing pride and supporting our community, it is about reminding the world, and ourselves, that we exist. It is making the invisible visible.

Also, remember that asexuality is a spectrum, one that Ace Awareness Week and International Asexuality Day celebrate in its entirety, and any who feel some affinity for the identities within are welcome. To honor Ace Awareness Week, which this year is from October 22nd to October 28th, here is an FAQ for anyone who wants to better understand or be a better ally, or maybe is just now realizing, as I once did, that ally isn’t actually the right word for them:

What is asexuality? - Asexuality is both an umbrella term and a sexual orientation of its own. The umbrella covers the identities of anyone who feels sexual attraction rarely, situationally, or not at all. Within the asexual umbrella, there is asexuality, feeling little to no sexual attraction to anyone, demisexuality, meaning that you only develop sexual attraction to someone after forming a strong emotional bond, and gray asexuality, a catch-all orientation for people who feel sexual attraction rarely or at specific times, but don’t fit cleanly into the asexual or demisexual identities. There are also a myriad of subidentities, all of which are valid and welcome in the asexual community. These identities are often referred to collectively as falling on the asexuality spectrum.

How is asexual different from aromantic? - The aromantic spectrum is very similar to the asexual spectrum, but instead of being centered on a lack of sexual attraction, it is centered on a lack of romantic attraction. Romantic and sexual orientation are not necessarily correlated, and it is possible to be asexual without being aromantic or vice-versa. Many people are both, but someone’s romantic orientation cannot be assumed from their sexual orientation. However, the amount of overlap in the communities and the similarity in the struggles they face has often led to aromantics and asexuals being each other’s most vocal allies.

How is asexuality different from celibacy/low libido? - Celibacy is the voluntary avoidance of sex. It has nothing to do with sexuality, and though many asexuals do avoid sex, many don’t. Similarly, feelings of attraction are completely separate from libido. Some asexuals categorize their feelings on having sex as favorable (they enjoy it and may even actively seek it out despite not feeling attracted to their partners), neutral (they don’t have any strong feelings on sex, and likely won’t actively seek it out), or repulsed (they feel some level of disgust at the idea of having sex, often dislike discussions or depictions of it, and will not seek it out). None of these feelings about sex are more or less valid than any other, and they can change over time. This is also extremely personal, and asking someone about their sexual history or views on sex is inappropriate.

Is this one of those new fad identities from social media? - No identity, no matter how recent it may seem, is invalid, a “fad”, or unworthy of respect. Like all sexualities, asexuality is as old as humanity, and academic acknowledgement of it goes back to the earliest gender and sexuality advocates of the 1800s, though under a variety of different names. The use of the actual word “asexual” dates back at least as far as 1907, and when Alfred Kinsey made his scale of sexual attraction in the 1940s, he included an “x” for those who feel attraction to nobody. During the explosion of queer activism in the 1970s, asexuals were right in the middle, fighting for our place and writing foundational works about how we fit in the grand tapestry of humanity.

Why is this queer and/or what discrimination do you face? - Queerness should never be defined by other people’s hatred. It is about experiencing gender and attraction that doesn’t fit neatly into the heterosexual gender binary; and asexuality is very much queer by that definition. Furthermore, asexuals do, unfortunately, face discrimination–from widespread microaggressions caused by societal assumptions about sexual relationships, to direct exclusion and erasure, and even to violence.

To find more information about asexuality and the wider ace spec community, visit the AVEN, the Asexual Visibility & Education Network, at asexuality.org. For more information about Ace Week and associated events, visit aceweek.org.

My RWBY Fic List

Another Fair Game Week done and dusted. That's the fourth one now; where does the time go?!

Here's my updated list. The symbol key indicates which ships feature. ❤️️️ Qrow 💚 Clover 💙 James 💛 Tai 🛡️🐶 Jaune/Marrow 🐝🐝 Blake/Yang

All these are on AO3. The rating is shown after each title.

Recently posted/updated:

Fair Game Week 2023 Series

❤️️️️💚️ Two separate fics for Fair Game Week 2023. Completed Days One-Six: i will be the one (who comes to rescue you) (T) When Qrow decides to investigate an unusual circus, little does he realise it will lead to an unexpected rescue which will ultimately change his life. 6 chapters 15,444 words Day Seven: Room Service (E) Qrow and Clover have been happy together for many years. Their life is contented, settled... and maybe verging on monotonous. Clover decides to do something about it. 2 chapters 1,790 words

A RWBY Alphabet Series

A series of (probably) unconnected stories from A to Z, featuring various RWBY characters and relationships. Ongoing I: Inversion (E) Qrow/Ozpin Finally, Qrow and Ozpin have a relationship they are both happy with. And even though Qrow has to travel frequently, reuniting is always enjoyable. But one night, an idle thought leads Ozpin to speculate how things could play out a little differently. 1 chapter 2,347 words

The Weight of Impossible Days (T)

❤️️💙 In the aftermath of a fateful day, friends and colleagues are lost or scattered. Against the odds, James Ironwood is recovered, barely alive. Qrow's anger, which has sustained him in recent days, dissipates as he begins to come to terms with his feelings towards his old friend. 1 chapters 5,242 words

Out of the Darkness (T)

❤️️💚️ After a long and difficult journey, Qrow has arrived in Atlas and is starting to enjoy his days in the floating city. His nights, however, are another matter. Clover becomes aware of his partner's problems, and offers his help. 1 chapter 4,564 words

Hey Jealousy (T)

❤️️💚💙 Qrow's relationship with James has been erratic, at best. Their shared history meant a closeness which at times promised to become something more. But it never quite worked. Now Qrow is back in Atlas and has to accept James has moved on. But why did he have to move on with someone so likeable? 3 chapters 9,052 words

For convenience, I've created several series and grouped most of the fics according to their main theme: Somewhat Silly Focus on Family Mostly Soft with Minimal Angst A Modicum of Angst Degrees of Naughtiness Historical Setting Modern Setting

If you are interested, I have an ongoing playlist where I keep track of the songs which have contributed to some of the things I've written. It's on Apple Music, YouTube, and Spotify.

Older fics below cut

A Fair Game Rainbow Series

❤️️💚️ A series of eight unconnected short stories, prompted by the colours of the rainbow. Because why not 🌈🙂 Completed

A RWBY Alphabet Series

A series of (probably) unconnected stories from A to Z, featuring various RWBY characters and relationships. Ongoing

Clover Ebi: Ace Operative Series

❤️️💚️ A short series looking at how a Fair Game relationship might work, if Clover were asexual. Completed

Early Days Series

❤️️💚️ A series of short fics which follow Qrow and Clover as they become more friendly, leading into the start of a deeper relationship. Completed As I wrote very little lead-up for Qrow and Clover's relationship in my longer story, I decided to try and rectify that here. These stories reach a natural conclusion of their own, and you don't have to go on to read the longer story for them to make sense 🙂

Fair Game Week 2021 Series

Fair Game Week 2022 Series

Last year is when I officially came out as asexual, here is all the times I made a drawing for Ace Pride events since then. 1.) Ace Awareness Day 2021 (Coincidentally the first Ace day in history). 2.) Ace Week 2021 3.) Day 2022 Just wanted to share a little bit of this before pride month comes this year, ever since I came out I've never been happier with myself. I genuinely love being part of the lgbt+ community, even though I still identify myself as "straight" in the sense of being heteromantic. I think all queer identities are wonderful and valid in their own way and I'm proud to have found my own. Also if you don't think I'm valid for being ace then I think you're a bigot.

heyyy! seeing as ace week is coming up here in a few weeks, i was wondering if some people could fill out my ace week survey. the intent is just to gather data about the community and its members (and also non-aces and their perceptions of us), and i promise that everything stays anonymous. i'm just curious. (idk where this should go lol. lmk if there is a different/better place to put this)

It’s been a while

Let me tell y’all were I’ve been. Not that y’all care but let me tell y’all anyway. I hope y’all like a good storytime…

So I stopped playing choices bcus I kept falling asleep while reading those century long ass chapters. I just wanted to be able to sit down with a nice snack on a Friday night so I could really just read in peace & quiet. But I’m chaotic & unorganised so bcus of that I always have to catch up on schoolwork that I didn’t finish throughout the week, so after finishing my 2hr nightly routine I just fall right asleep.

Oh yeah I forgot, I went back to school in Sep. 2020 so I could no longer keep up with all of my hobbies, so obviously Choices & it’s drama ended up at the bottom of the list. Maybe that was a good thing bcus after the 2021/2 that I’ve had I don’t know what would’ve happened to me if I got myself involved in drama on top of the mess I’ve been going through.

So as it turns out…I’m actually not asexual/aroace….I was just traumatised😅. Nothing weird happened to me it’s just that I was a very scared & insecure child. Later on the development that I should’ve gone trough in my teens was stolen from me bcus I got bullied & maybe even discriminated (?) at the school I attended. Bcus of this I sort of developed this “I don’t care” mindset. Not even to defend myself, I literally didn’t care about any of the people who did this to me. In my eyes they were just miserable and had to blame somebody to make themselves feel better. It took me a while to realise that, just bcus I didn’t see it as bullying, that did not mean that I wasn’t getting bullied….bcus I was. And it affected me more than I was personally aware of.

This and the fact that, like I said I was a scared & insecure child, made it so that basically everything that involved deep feelings, some that I had never experienced myself, caused me to get resentful & disgusted. It’s not fun when you’re a kid, saying you’ll never kiss somebody & all your older cousins, aunts, uncles & even your mom come at you with “that’ll change when you get older” talk. And you just keep trying to make it clear to them that you’re not comfortable with these types of jokes but they just don’t listen bcus they don’t realise it’s not a joke to you.

So anyway what happened was, this guy from my class started talking to me. Our conversations were online bcus of COVID. Last school year he switched majors so we were no longer in the same classes so I met him in person twice & very briefly, which made it hard for me to figure him out. Now idk what happened I still don’t know how to explain but I caught feelings🤡. We were always just joking around & he used to send me flirty messages & stuff but I was aware that it was just jokes so it didn’t do nothing for me. I see people for who they really are, not for who they want ppl to think they are. Even trough text, I consider it one of my many talents. So I guess I caught feelings for this guy bcus I really saw HIM yk…?

It got to a point were I didn’t know what to do with myself, so I told him. Hoping he’d either bite or reject me. I was leaning more towards reject so I could leave these feelings behind and go about my life. But instead he did the worst thing someone’s ever done to me.

He told me he had those same feelings. Then over the course of a month (this was March/April 2022, we stopped talking in May/June). He continued to send mixed signals which really confused me & caused me to stress tf out. We’d been talking for nearly a year when I got these feelings & bcus of the fact that I never been trough something like this I didn’t know what to do with myself. I was crushing on this pile of 💩 like a 15y/o to put things into perspective.

I also have a bad habit of overthinking & over - analyzing things that don’t add up. So if I wasn’t in my head about my feelings, I was thinking about the things he told me or what his day was like or whatever. Now do y’all know what happens when you think about someone TOO much?

YOUR ENERGIES GET TWISTED. Me being the sensitive girl I am, can literally feel what someone next to me is feeling. It helps me behave accordingly, I don’t even do it on purpose. Basically, bcus of the fact that I was in this guys energy field & he was in mine….I fell into his depression….sort of.

I just woke up one day feeling like absolute shit. It’s a good thing I’m on top of my feelings and I knew that if I gave in to what I was feeling I’d get a depression fr. So I woke up & did what I had to do everyday no matter how hard it was. My mom noticed I wasn’t doing so great so I told her everything. With her help & the help of her friend I got out of it, sending that shit straight back to him. After that (it’s now late April/May 2022), I got the answers I was looking for which made a lot of shit that happened make sense…

This 🤡 was still in a relationship with the baby mama he said he broke up with. Now if that wasn’t enough the 2 of them were living together. So this piece of 💩 was basically only talking to me bcus my clean energy attracted his miserable ass. He had to feel better about himself so used me, the girl full of life & ambitions ( that I’ll actually be able to achieve bcus I’m not a broke 22 y/o with a kid, student debt, living independently & who’s not in a miserable relationship that’s holding me back in life ).

They say you attract the energy you give out, but don’t get it twisted. Bcus when you’re doing good in life, you know the 😈 comes lurking & you gotta be on edge, careful not to let him in.

After finding out about this I confronted him & he didn’t even bother to apologise. Instead he blocked me….on instagram. But I still had his number so I texted him & he was acting real fucking bold so I made sure to block him first this time. So yeah I blocked his number & all of his other SM accounts….just to unblock them and send him back to that hellhole he came from bcus I don’t even want to hold on to him trough a blocked contacts list. The whole situation was just so traumatising and disrespectful to all parties involved. Like bruh…she gave birth to your daughter & you’re out here embarrassing that girl lying about her existence? Nah that’s just…I can’t-

So these past 2 years have put me trough a lot. I basically found myself back again. Turns out I’ve always been perfect so I’m currently back to the sensitive 6y/o girl with the rose colored glasses, positive energy & the rich fantasy I used to be. Just with a little bit more spice to it. I liked her better than that girl I created to protect me from drama as a 13y/o anyway. I’m glowing up, happier then I’ve been in years & finally exploring my feelings & trying new things instead of only allowing myself to experience these things trough a screen. So I guess this whole situation definitely had it’s reasons. I needed that reality check so yeah…

I’m thinking about making my comeback, but I switched to an iPhone last month. So we’ll see if I can find a good mod for this app bcus Lord knows I’m not playing this game without any diamonds. It takes out all the fun, I’ll pass.

Now if you kept reading this far, I hope you enjoyed my story. I had to take out a lot of the details but you can ask me about things if you want. I just wanted to share my story so yeah uhmm…bye

"Them's the Breaks, Kid"

So time to ramble.

The episode was so hooting sweet, Eda was a little punk (I love her) the chemistry with Rain was great.

Little Rain was a genius (and I am so thankful that they are), They manage to outsmart Terra (plant lady) and her memory tea, they know that they are being watched now and they have to play the game and pretend they are being brainwashed.

This story means something and as the episode end (fangirl scream) It is evident that Rain is working with Darius, they know that the emperor is planning something and they are trying to stop him. Hope they include Eda and Luz in the plan, something tells me that they gonna need all the help they can.

Probs to the owl house team for not being afraid to make the principal Faust so creepy, kinda remind me of a character from faun labyrinth

I just heard about this Harry Styles thing... time for a gay girl's possibly unpopular opinion. I honestly think that "Harry Styles isn't queerbaiting" and "Harry Styles isn't the king of pop" can and should coexist.

I mean cmon... irl people don't exist to be the perfect queers. They're still people who make mistakes and stuff. The fact that people are looking at a real guy and calling him queerbaiting is a little scary... he's not a cartoon character.

My Top Posts in 2022:

Knuckles: So... who broke the coffee maker? I'm not mad. I just want to know.

Tails: I did. I broke-

Knuckles: No, no you did not. Wade?

Wade: Don't look at me. Look at Tom.

Tom: What? I didn't break it.

Wade: Huh. That's weird. How'd you even know it was broken?

Tom: Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken.

Wade: [leans in on him] ...Suspicious.

Sonic: If it matters - probably not - but Maddie was the last one to use it.

Maddie: Liar! I don't even drink that crap!

Sonic: Oh, really? Then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier?

Maddie: I use the wooden stirrers to push back my cuticles- everyone knows that, Sonic!

Tails: Ok, ok! Let’s not fight! I broke it, let me pay for it, Knuckles!

Knuckles: No! Who broke it??!

Wade: [looks at Crazy Carl, then at Knuckles] Knuckles... Carl’s been awfully quiet.

Crazy Carl: REALLY??

Wade: Yeah! Really.

Crazy Carl: Oh, my God! [everyone starts arguing at one another except Knuckles]

Knuckles: [to the camera] I broke it. It burned my hand, so I punched it. I predict ten minutes from now they will be at each other's throats with war paint on their faces and a pig head on a stick. [turns to look at the everyone as they continue to argue, then looks back] Good. It was getting a little chummy around here.

Ok this is definitely supposed to be a "look at how sexy and Not Like Other Girls this girl is! If you use our razor to Manscape™️ your balls, this girl will definitely want to fuck you!"

.....but it kinda reads as an absolutely awesomesauce ad for trans women who have not had (or do not want) bottom surgery.

Which I am super aware is not even remotely what they intended. But I've decided that's how I'm gonna see it.

24 notes - Posted May 9, 2022

Dracula daily is my biggest serotonin-creator right now. I have loved this book for almost 20 years and watching all of us read it together is utterly splendid.

But for even more hilarity and delightful mental images, please remember that in 1897, while vampire stories were about to come into another heyday? They weren't mainstream yet.

And the name "Count Dracula" was in no way synonymous with "vampire".

The Carpathian mountains, That Accent™️, hell... Even Transylvania itself, were not inextricably tied with "vampire lore", particularly in the minds of western Europeans.

This is the book that did that.

As much as we are all reveling in the present tense, and are experiencing the adventure in real time? We all know something Jonathan doesn't. We all know something the readers of 1897 did not.

We know that Count Dracula is a vampire.

We know that he isn't just a vampire, he's like, the biggest, baddest, most OP vamp ever.

We have the lovely dramatic irony in every word, in every time Jonathan tells us that everything is fine, this is totally normal for the Carpathians, he is sure that he's merely ignorant of local culture. We know there is a reveal coming, and we know exactly what it is.

....now imagine it's 1897 and maybe Charlotte has been sneaking her brother's copy of this book in bits and pieces because fiction novels were still sort of looked down on by true high society, especially for women to read. And she gets dressed in her fancy cranberry and white lace calling gown, and takes her carriage to Lady Ashworth's home down the street.

And poor Charlotte has to keep her cool and her decorum through half an hour of polite, stilted conversation as Lord Ashworth is in the sitting room when she arrives. But finally, he excuses himself to the study, and Charlotte can barely put her herbal tissan down in its saucer before Lady Ashworth leans forward.

"Have you read Jonathan Harker's last entry?"

"oh, my dear Vespasia- why do you think I've called on you this afternoon? Eloise isn't reading it, and I needed to speak with someone!"

My #1 post of 2022

Y'all, this is not a call out to anyone in particular, but I am so fucking tired of seeing fanart of Gilmore that makes him skinny or super trim & buff.

Gilmore is fat. He is a beautiful, incredibly handsome, flamboyant man who wears jewelry and makeup and bright colors... And he is fat.

Vax likes him that way, and more importantly, Gilmore likes himself that way.

It's amazing to see a character like him, whose size is never ever the butt of the joke, who is never underestimated or ignored because he's fat, and who is extremely aware of how attractive and desirable he is, while being fat.

When y'all are making fanart, or Stardew valley or sims versions, or 3d renders, or whatever... stop fucking making Gilmore skinny. It's fatphobic, and all it does is tell us fat folks who see it that you don't think someone can be as awesome as Shaun Gilmore is while being fat.

Please don't take him away from us.
