Don't forget this is the new asexual flag

Meant to be more intersectional

That doesn't mean you can't still use the ORIGINAL asexual flag. That's the classic. The one everyone recognizes.

But the new one is the one that's my profile banner (mostly because my previous banner was a flag that a follower made for me to include brown and black stripes to represent asexual people of color during the BLM movement, but this one was made by an actual black asexual person to be more inclusive so it's better)

So....

New asexual flag. This also includes other asexual people that don't feel well represented. Physically disabled asexual people. Asexual women. Asexual people that still experience a libido. Asexual people that experience low sexual attraction. Asexual people that don't fit the stereotypes of being "pure" or "prudes" (I know I write some of the kinkiest shit out there).

Love you all!

Is it asexual to love a spinny chair.

you have to be kinder to people who are slow processors.

you have to be kinder to people who don't understand your jokes.

you have to be kinder to people who forget important dates.

you have to be kinder to people with cognitive decline.

you have to be kinder to people who were always this way, too.

Sex is not essential. You can live without it. Full stop.

Not having sex isn't shameful or a sign of failure. It also doesn't make anyone boring.

You are not entitled to having sex with anybody and nobody is entitled to having sex with you.

Sex is not what makes someone an adult.

Nobody's worth is defined by how much sex they have or don't have.

Sex is not equally important to everyone.

You can have fulfilling and happy relationships without sex.

You should only have sex on your own terms, not because you feel like you owe it to someone, or because you feel like you'd be incomplete without it.

Know your boundaries around sex and be firm about them. Know how to respect other people's boundaries.

The previous point also applies when it comes to discussing sex. If someone doesn't wanna talk about it or hear about it you have to back down.

We're getting there little by little, sure. But it's a road.
