GUYS THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS TESTING OM TRANS PEOPLE

Because it still bothers me that people use A-spec like it only means asexual, here’s a list of all the identities under the a-spec umbrella. If I missed one, please tell me and I’ll add it.

I‘m happy you could recognize yourself in some of the labels. Don’t know if it‘ll help but here’s a link with flags and descriptions for most of the a-spec stuff: https://www.tumblr.com/pleasantpostpeanut/819147267582951424/aloveloveless-anyone-who-doesnt-experience

also as a repulsed alloaro aspec spaces are so often hostile towards me. no one treats romance repulsion as real so you still have people bringing up romance right in front of you or even dragging their partner along in whats meant to be a safe space. and then half the people there imply theyre better than the allos because they don't have sex/have less of it when basically my only way of connecting with someone is through that. being aro is now seen as more of a philosophy rather than an actual orientation (thank you partnering aros who keep saying shit like "everyone should become more aromantic" and "everyone should date and kiss their friends! abolish romance and monogamy!") so now people treat me being aro more like me declaring that i'm a cool poly person who's ~woke~ about romance and writes long thinkpieces about it when in fact i just really fucking hate this weird ass scarily obsessive relationship structure and all the uncomfortable touching and fake gestures that have to go along with it and get physically nauseous if i imagine myself in anything similar.

reasons i haven’t replied back:

it's disability pride month guys, so let's stop with the able-bodied & neurotypical headcanons for characters. make that character disabled! make them neurodivergent! give them mobility & support aids! make their disability affect them in some tangible way! give them mental & physical disabilities! make that injury disable them! & if the character is disabled in canon? expand on that! look at it deeper! research their canon disability & show some love to them!
