A-Spec-tacular

happy pride month !!!! i made some miku icons !!! (the last one is transparent !!!)

Happy Ace Awareness Week, everyone!! You are all wonderful!

So, as an asexual person myself, I’ve decided to give some reminders for all you lovely ace people.

You are valid

You are real

You are a part of the LGBT community

You can have a fulfilling relationship without sex

If you feel like you aren’t fulfilling your partner because you don’t have sex, you are wrong, your partner would not be with you if they didn’t feel fulfilled

Although, if your partner claims they aren’t fulfilled because you aren’t having sex with them, dump their ass and find someone who respects you

You can be ace no matter your age, gender, race, etc.

IT’S OKAY TO BE ACE AND LIKE SEX

IT’S OKAY TO BE ACE AND LIKE SEX

IT’S OKAY TO BE ACE AND LIKE SEX

You do not have to be aromantic to be ace (I’m a biromantic ace myself)

However, aro-ace people are just as valid

You are not obligated to explain the nuances of your asexuality to anyone unless you’re planning to have sex with them

TW - SEXUAL ASSAULT

Having been assaulted is not always why you’re asexual, but sometimes, having been assaulted is why you’re asexual. Both are valid. (change made here because what I wrote earlier wasn’t phrased well)

TW OVER

You are not “broken”

You are not a “prude”

Demisexuals, Greysexuals, Cupiosexuals, and anyone else on the ace spectrum are also valid

But, most of all

You are loved

Asexual? Never Heard of it.

What does Asexual mean?

Asexual is a term to describe the experience of feeling little to no sexual attraction.

Other commonly asked questions:

So you’re celibate?

What’s the difference between asexual and aromantic?

What is the ace-spectrum?  

What identities are on the ace-spectrum?

So you hate sex?

But how can you date someone and be asexual?

We don’t define ourselves on the basis of other people hating us. 

Do you love your sexuality and want to show off without being too loud about it?

Do you love Armor Inspired Jewelry???

Then boy howdy do I have the shop for you. 

Tattooed and Chained on Etsy has dozens of pieces of chain mail and scale mail jewelry for pride, and I need you to go support the hell out of them. 

Ace, Pan, Bi, Genderfluid, Trans, Non-Binary, Genderqueer, and plenty of rainbows if you want the broader umbrella. And multiple options across all of them. And a few solo pieces in other sexualities! AND they can do custom pieces! I am delighted and am probably going to need so many of them. 

So go! Look! Shop!

Treat yo’self! It’s Pride!

We officially have a date! HeartBeat Dice’s pride dice kickstarter kicks off June 22nd!! 😍🏳️‍🌈 I’m super excited, the dice look amazing and basically my whole friend circle needs them
