#aroace discussion

HHHH ok as someone who’s aroace Kris’s friendship with Susie means SO MUCH to me. It’s really hard to explain but having them just be super-duper-close best friends makes me so happy. Don’t get me wrong, I get where the Krusie shippers come from, I totally do. It’s pretty common for people who are that close to typically be seen as romantic because, sadly, it’s not super common for people to be that close and seen as any other way. (Heck, even me and my best friend are similar and for YEARS people who we don’t even know personally thought we were dating.) Not that I have anything against Krusie though, I could see it working out. But keeping it platonic is so important to me personally because it really shows that there are other forms of love and bonding and closeness and all of that good stuff that dont need to be romantic! Not everything is about romance! You can trust and love your friend deeply and be affectionate and supportive and they can even be your entire world and it can still be platonic!

As someone who only wants to be a close with someone as a romantic partner minus the romance, seeing platonic Krusie makes me very happy. (I also like to think Kris is also Aroace based off of no evidence other than I said so. Even then, if they wernt, it’s still cool bc it shows that even people who arnt aro can still have meaningful, platonic relationships with others)

Why do people think arorace is a "mental illness"?

(I think its completely normal to not feel attraction or you don't want to be in a romantic relationship. But I just want to know why some people think that.)

I got no idea ;w; probably just heteronormativity or something making people ve told since birth that one day they’re gonna get married to “opposite sex” and have kids or be miserable forever. Which is really stupid ;w; but that ideology has probably gotten ingrained into many people so unfortunately that stupid idea is commonplace.

Because I know that in if in seasons 2 of Hazbin Hotel, Alastor looked at the camera directly and said "I am Aromantic Asexual, I have no attraction to anyone of any gender, sexual or otherwise. I will literally kill you if you try to hit on me." And people will still somehow say that it's not enough evidence.

Like why does Alastor have to say the words with his mouth for ya'll to believe it?? Ya'll are pretty confident that Angel Dust is gay and he's never said it directly (at least from my knowledge). Were none of ya'll taught context clues in school???
