explaining asexual inside jokes for non-aces who don't know: - the cake and garlic bread memes are because we think they are better than sex - the denmark Invasion is because we realised there are more asexuals than the population of denmark, so naturally the next step is domination - some asexuals wear a black ring on our right middle finger - yes, we are dragons. don't question it.

I have to say, I recently realized I'm ace, and I can say I LOVE my pride flag, not just because of how nice the colors clash, but what it means to me as an asexual. I actually plan to come out as ace to my family through an ace-flag themed cake/cupcakes. I thought it be a sweet way to come out, and poke fun at how us aces perfer to ear cake over doing it with someone.

[@bkCheezburgor]

Its been 4 months now, How'd it Go?

[@PhantomFerret]

@@bkCheezburgor, coming out asexual wasn't all that bad, no one really questioned me. Sure, they believe my asexuality is because I never had some adult time with another adult (if you get what I mean), but that was fine. Then, a few months later, I realized I'm also enby and that's when the issues began. Then it became "Are you sure you're enby? Are you sure you're asexual? Are you sure you also like men romantically? How do you know you only like women romantically? Oh, you want to have a more masucline chest, well every woman has issues with her chest, so what your going through doesn't need to result in removing that area of your body. And you want us to call you by your new name and pronouns, sorry that isn't going to happen." That kind of thing. So yeah, coming out as asexual didn't result in anything terrible, but coming out as nonbinary kind of did. Granted, they haven't disowned me, and they're finally beginning to respect my pronouns and new name (well, a few are), but still hurts to have my new name and my pronouns not respected and to get questioned about my asexuality a bit further than before, but not all that bad. 1

[@gaxalee7392]

So you know how a lot ace spec people will tell sex jokes about themselves but can’t handle other people telling sex jokes about them(even people they’re more comfortable with). I thought of a good explanation for it(at least I hope it’s good): Telling a sex joke about yourself is like touching your own chest; you don’t need permission to do it. Telling a sex joke about someone else is like touching their chest; you either need permission or a previously established privilege to do so. I realized some time after thinking this up that this explanation could also be used to shut down the “it’s just a joke” brand of harassers/enablers.

I’M UNCOMFORTABLE!” Later I realized that was my version of , “I need an adult!” 🤣

[@BeastGuardian]

That's a great way to explain why "It's just a joke" isn't justified. I've been the target of casual rape "jokes" threatening to teach me why I'm not ace and not trans. It still sucks, but back 15 odd years ago it was really hard to describe being ace to my peers who had only heard the term asexual in reference to asexual reproduction. I'm glad to see the internet spread the word about our existence and that kids get the support they need now. I wish I had these resources as a 90's teen. I always felt like such an alien.

[@martelraykin]

"Ace until they meet this person" is kind of what demi-sexuality is about except that it's "until they get close to that person", kinda. But yeah, ace will not change sexual orientation just because we have sex, or write/read sex-related stories, or talk about sex. This is the most annoying thing I've heard way too often.

[@MorgenPeschke]

It's kind of annoying too, because it's not like the demi-sexual community gets tons of representation either. It's doubly sad when they take something that could have been perfectly serviceable representation for one community and turned to into something that fundamentally misrepresented another 🤦‍♀️

[@hauntedshadowslegacy2826]

Don't forget, though, that just because a demi-sexual person gets close enough to experience sexual attraction with one person doesn't make them no longer demi-sexual. So, it's still not 'ace/demi until', since the orientation is still there and still valid.

Dear lord that's gotta be so annoying. I've luckily never had to justify being ace to my family and friends, cause sexual attraction just isn't something we've ever viewed as important or prominent. So we've always been laid back about anything lgbtq. No fuzz when my sister got a girlfriend, no fuzz when I started talking about the ace spectrum and being homoromantic. Just an "aight cool" and that's about it. If any of my siblings ever started *insisting* that I'm not ace and then give me that "proving you wrong" attitude, I'd feel disgusted with them. And I mean, seriously.. is it not kinda disturbing how much people care about their family members having sex? Kinda gross in my opinion.. But yeah, I always find it sad when I see people base everything off of sexual attraction and bedtime shenanigans, rather than quality time, friendship and genuine love for oneanother. (Also I dunno how much I can complain seeing as the worst I've gotten is a guy jokingly asking if my balls are blue cause I said I don't fancy wanking it lmao) But anyway, keep at it.

I have sexual trauma, I’m demisexual and have always been - that experience changed a lot of things but it didn’t change who I was or how I feel sexual attraction.

I love the spongebob memes especially because years ago, when Stephen Hillenburg was asked if spongebob had a love interest, Hillenburg responded by saying that he sees Spongebob as asexual. Considering spongebob had two parents and had no romantic or sexual relationship himself, I affirm that his is an aroace icon!

[@rainpooper7088]

Actually, the question was explicitly about whether or not Spongebob and Patrick are gay which lead to Stephen Hillenburg saying that, no, the team never intended for them to be gay, but that he considers them asexual instead. If this had just been about deflecting the possibility of these characters being gay, he could have just said they were straight or even have them crush on girls in the show itself (apparently Sandy was originally intended as a love interest, they could have easily revived some of that stuff to dispel all doubts) but no, he explicitly decided on asexuality long before ace representation was ever even considered a possible thing in cartoons. That’s why it irks me when people try to claim that Stephen Hillenburg calling Spongebob asexual was just him „making a marine biologist joke because sponges reproduce asexually in real life, he didn’t actually mean it, guys!“ The question at hand was explicitly about sexuality and so was the answer. Fanfics are fine, nobody cares if you ship Spongebob with Sandy or Patrick or whoever, but the creator said what he said. By Word of God, Spongebob is canonically asexual, not gay or straight or interested in romance in any way that doesn’t involve a literal food item(it wasn’t cake or garlic bread, but close enough…).

One thing I always hate as an asexual, is when there's a character that is either confirmed to be or popularly headcanoned to be ace, but people in the fandom write sexual fanfics about them. Like, yeah aces can still have adult fun time, but those who don't understand asexual relationships don't understand the depth and the reality behind sex-positive/favorable ace relationships. Yes, aces can still partake in the act, but our relationships with it is completely different.

Like alastor from hazbin hotel being confirmed aroace and still being put with characters in fanfiction Like When I went to the fanfiction for the show (a dangerous game to be playing as a sex repulsed ace because it's fanfiction and it's for a show that's already very sexualized but that's beside the point) one of the first ones I found was clearly gonna have alastor and angel be together And it's like... Yes aros can have close relationships like that and aces can have sex But Is alastor really the type of person who'd do that? He gives me sex indifferent but still wouldn't do it with anyone vibes. The way I see it, he doesn't really care enough to be grossed out by it, but I also don't think he'd be willing to do it with most people. He's too powerful and therefore too good for them! Why would he waste his time with anyone else there?

[@Nildread]

It's so helpful to have stuff like this talked about more, instead of trying to hide it incase it influences people or something. I don't know what my sexuality is because I grew up in the time where everyone was using gay as a pejorative and like, most representation in media was straight people. I was bullied for being gay when I wasn't. But all of that stuff is so messed up, like I shouldn't have felt the need to distance myself and defend myself by essentially identifying as not gay. There is nothing wrong with being gay and no one should be put in that situation. I'm so happy to see things changing. To see more acceptance. I think it's important for people (probably should be a part of sexual education) to have discussions on what love actually is. And sexual attraction, and romantic attraction etc. Like, I still don't know what my stuff is but for me relationships are too much time and effort. I'd rather play music, have chill conversations, play board games, ttrpgs, video games or read a book. I'm sure it also doesn't help that I'm living my hermit life.

Of course greysexuality and demisexuality is totally a thing and valid. And I would love to see more representation for them.

It's perfectly okay and normal to notice your sexuality shift as the years pass by. But in my particular case, I went from a very feisty bisexual into a chill demi who loves to cuddle. Sex is cool and all, but have you ever had a silly pillow fight? Laughing so much with your partner until you cry? That's the stuff. Gaining maturity made me realize how precious love and affection means to me, oppositely to what your mother pointed out. Presence or absence of sex doesn't equal maturity and it's something that needs to be understood by more people.

Little update: Very relatable and funny, some a little sad 😢 Now I need garlic bread, have my cat cuddle up with me and some hair-dye because I NEED the ace flag in my hair 😭 Also, I'm not 100% sure about the Denmark thing, but I think it's because 1% of the population is ace and that are more people than there are Danish people. So basically we're going to invade small countries... I'm not sure why though, can someone explain? 🤔
