Asexuality on Australia's 'The Morning Show'
I just want to say, personally, that this segment was handled very very poorly, and quite frankly I’m disappointed and angry with the hosts of this show. Throughout the entire segment, both of the hosts giggled and outright laughed on the concept and complexity of Asexuality, sex and romantic orientations.
You would think as two grown adults, this could of been handled more maturely and...

outlawroad:
For those of us who want cuddling and other forms of physical affection.
Sometimes, I think of you, my fellow aces and aros who are lonely and touch-starved, and I wish I could magically show up in your room and offer you all the affection you want for as long as you want.
I think a cuddle orgy would be pretty awesome after the initial “we haven’t met in meatspace before”...

For the person who asked for asexual t-shirts...
I have a shirt store on Zazzle, making neurodiverse/autism/gender non-binary shirts, but, if people want an asexual design, give me your thoughts on what it should be like and I will try to make one (or two, or three)! You can give as much details as you want or just a rough idea, either is fine ^v^

Many asexual people still feel romantic feelings towards other people, the only thing an asexual doesn’t feel is sexual attraction. In saying that, many asexuals are in relationships and some still have sex :)
Everyone is different.

Did You Notice The URL Change?
demiisexualityyy:
This is because the new demisexuality tumblr has be created, and as this one will be deleted, it was better that the new one take the name (and easier for people who want to follow to find again) instead of having something else.
So go to www.demisexuality.tumblr.com and follow that one if you want info, stories and other ace, demi and grace (but more specifically the last...

Because the answer is so obviously yes.
Oh course it would bother me if they used guns to perform abortions!
So I guess I agree with anti-choicer on that one, we shouldn’t be using guns to perform abortions.
That’s just wrong.
It wouldn’t bother me if we used magic to perform abortions, so I guess we should perform abortions!
What? Using a gun? Well...

You know you’re ace when you love a song until you find out it’s about sex, or even just reminds you of sex.

Ace Awareness week
thechronicwanderer:
I’m doing a presentation about asexuality for Spectrum, my school’s LGBTQ group. I have a bullet-point list of things that I am going to talk about. If anyone has any suggestions on other topics I should include, or how to make it more interesting than me just rambling, that would be great.
Basic definition of asexuality
what it means to me to be asexual
asexuality doesn’t...

Asexual News's Daily Roundup -- September 25, 2011
ace-reporter:
Okay, leaving the world of the arguments behind, we are going to start today with a correction. The correction deals with a Fort Worth Story where a student was punished for saying Homosexuality was a sin.

“Nobody cares if you don’t have sex.”
Bullshit they don’t. Sure, society claims to value virgins and people who are abstinent/celibate. Right here in Balitmore I’ve seen billboards to the effect of “VIRGIN: Teach your children it’s not a dirty word,” and there are plenty of things in the news about how much people support abstinence-only programs in schools. However,...

aced-and-confused:
It’s only recently I realised that when people on sitcoms say “It’s been six months [since I had sex]!” and everybody laughs, it’s not because the person is being silly and overreacting, it’s because they’re laughing at them because they think it’s an unreasonable and difficult state of being, and they identify with the person’s complaints.

one thing that i constantly hear asexuals repeat is how not wanting to have sex ostracizes them from society, stigmatizes them & is considered so socially unacceptable.
all I have to say is are you fucking kidding me
if you are gay or if you are a woman, having sex is the absolute worst thing you can do in the eyes of the majority. this has...
