Asexual Historical Figures and Modern Celebrities

being nonbinary and a fan of non-human creatures isn’t easy. like i’m constantly struggling with the fact that i’m both like “i wish there was more enby representation in humans” and “i’m the same gender as mewtwo and that fucking rips”

the tension between “representing NBs only as nonhuman characters is dehumanizing and othering” and “but monsters, aliens, and robots are so much cooler than humans”

What if I told you that some of us are tryin'a bridge that lil gap and offer both?

I'm listening...

[ID: seven versions of the “I want to believe” poster in the agender, nonbinary, genderfluid, transgender, genderqueer, aromantic, and asexual flag colors. The white text is in all caps at the bottom on trees and brush that grow above it. The UFO is grey, reflecting blue light, and has three red dots. Each poster has the flag colors in many rough stripes to create gradients. End ID.]

I meant to Reblog this to my personal blog (like the other two posts) but this one can stay because I think a lot of aces have this feel.

Artemis is the patron Goddess of all Aspecs.

My Cold War presentation should be done soon. Then we can get back to the new stuff. I promise I will at least try to have something new queued before I go on vacation in a week. Try is the key word. No promises I can do it, but I will try.

I keep seeing people saying "allosexual" shames gay people, but honestly it reminds me of the term "goyish", which describes non-Jewish people. Just because it covers other religious/ethnic minorities who are also oppressed doesn't mean it's an anti-Muslim or anti-Black (not that there aren't Jewish Black people, just like there are ace gay people!) or whatever slur. It's just a useful term. Sincerely, an allo(?) Jew
