#allosexuals

I was gonna have lunch with a close friend of mine, I hadn't seen him in 5 days. Old friends of his (who're very allo) invaded our usual lunch. (I say invaded because he quietly doesn't like them either)

The insanity of these allo (barely) kids and them touching him (poking, caressing) while also making sex jokes around us egged-on the chronic pain flares we were already both in.

It fuckin ruined our time together.

green is a nice color isn’t it? let’s say green is anything regarding sexuality and blue is anything regarding gender.

Hello! I’m a cis female, demiromantic, polyamorous, asexual, and experience qp attraction. Some of my friends are allosexual, bisexual, aroace, homosexual, and agender.

that’s confusing though! cry so many of our parents and guardians in agony. why can’t you just say dating! why can’t it just be a you guys thing! why are there so many words!

I could go into detail that it gives us ways to interact with each other, quickly explain our orientations, and identify personal experiences and needs without confusing amounts of overlap, but what I’m going to say here is:

Our houses are painted differently.

If you walk into someone’s house and love the nice shade of green it’s painted, you might ask them what shade. they tell you pine. the next time you go to the store you pick up some nice pine green paint for your living room.

someone’s bedroom is navy blue, and you’re not really a fan of that yourself even if it looks okay, but your other friend’s bedroom is cornflower blue, and you love that! you ask for the shade and go to the store they got it from and get some for your foyer.

you don’t go to the store and ask for just green or blue. there are way too many shades for that to ever work without being confusing and ending up with shades you don’t like for your house. 

You may think your white house is the “normal” color, and therefore doesn’t need a name, but it’s not! It’s a specific shade of white, and other people with white paint still have variations, and white paint is still drastically different than green or blue paint, but none of them are better than the others, it’s just personal preference. you wouldn’t just break into someone’s house and repaint it to what you think the normal kind of paint is, holy shit, you can get jail time for that. that’s fucked up.
