Greetings everyone! I just finished a list of community services, guides and resources directed specifically to ace spectrum people (asexuals, demisexuals, gray-asexuals, etc.).
There’s also a Google Docs version available.
Thanks to everyone who helped me out, and to everyone who is working on the projects here listed <3
If you’re looking for resources in Spanish, hit me up here on Tumblr or in the Twitter @asexualenbreve.

Como cada fin de año, les traigo un resumen de lo que dijeron psicólogues y otres profesionales de la salud sexual sobre la asexualidad en la prensa y en otras publicaciones este año que se va. Asegúrense de revisar las versiones anteriores del 2016 y 2017.
Traducción del texto It’s All A Fucking Joke, Right de Fae, una de las personas que modera el blog Fuck Yeah Asexual. Publicado originalmente el 30 de julio del 2016.
Advertencia de contenido por menciones de acoso y abuso emocional y sexual.
En los pocos meses que llevo moderando fuckyeahasexual y recorriendo el lado asexual de Tumblr, he visto un Flujo. Constante. de info que detalla situaciones horriblemente abusivas y en general una desgastada salud mental. Dos mensajes a la semana en el inbox si tengo suerte, usualmente entre siete y diez.
Y tantos han sido, que puedo organizar oficialmente las más de 500 preguntas y colaboraciones de este tipo en una extensa lista de Por qué El Radicalismo Que Excluye A La Asexualidad Es Increíblemente Tóxico Y Una Mierda:

This is a translation of the post It’s All A Fucking Joke, Right by @millenniumfae. Thanks to @lascosasdeserasexual for helping me out :)
TN: I decided to start this year with this translation (authorized by the author) because i thought it would be a good idea to remember exactly why we need to work together in asexual education and support the creation of local and international groups and collectives. Also, this text may help other ace people to realize that their experiences are not isolated, but part of a pattern of violence that affects a lot of folks in the community.
These are the stories of interpersonal harassment and abuse that affect us everyday, the ones that we need to help prevent and the damage we have to help heal.
Finally, i love the tone in which is written, because that’s exactly the kind of fury this type of constant scorn needs <3

Este sitio web busca ofrecer información clara y concisa sobre la asexualidad y el espectro asexual para cualquiera que necesite conocer sobre el tema.
Justo a tiempo para esta Semana de la Visibilidad Asexual 2017, les presento un proyecto en el que he estado trabajando desde febrero: Asexualidad en Breve
El objetivo del sitio web es entregar información clara y concisa a personas que recién están comenzando a investigar sobre el tema, inspirado por el sitio WhatIsAsexuality.com
Esta es la primera etapa, con el tiempo iré agregando más páginas y secciones. Pueden leer más al respecto en mi blog y seguir las novedades a través del Twitter @asexualenbreve
Y si les interesa participar de las festividades, @lascosasdeserasexual está organizando un evento en Tumblr, ¡anímense!
For this Asexual Awareness Week 2017, I’m glad to introduce a project I’ve been working on since February: Asexualidad en Breve (“Asexuality in Short”)
The website’s objective is to provide clear and concise information to people who are just starting to look up into asexuality and the ace spectrum, inspired by the site WhatIsAsexuality.com
This is just a first phase, so if you would like to know when new pages and sections are added, follow @asexualenbreve on Twitter
Worse than having no info on asexuality, is having it and then deleting it
This was cross-posted to The Asexual Agenda.
ILGA-Europe are an independent, international non-governmental umbrella organisation bringing together 490 organisations from 45 European countries. They’re part of the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans and Intersex Association (ILGA), and were established as a separate region and independent legal entity in 1996.
ILGA-Europe work to advocate for human rights and equality for LGBTI people at European level, before organisations such as the European Union, the Council of Europe and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE); and to strengthen the LGBTI movement in Europe and Central Asia by providing training and support to its member organisations and other LGBTI groups.
Back in 2015, their Glossary included a definition of asexuality (here’s a capture in Archive.org). I found the link through AVEN and it was cited in the glossary of the No Hate Speech Movement. It went like this:
Asexuality: an asexual person is someone who does not experience sexual attraction. Asexual people have the same emotional needs as everybody else and are just as capable of forming intimate relationships. Asexuality should not be misinterpreted as celibacy, which is a choice or a certain situation. Some consider asexuality as a sexual orientation.
Copyright line at the end of the page (and also the Wayback Machine) tells me that it has been there since at least 2013.
Now, a definition in a glossary may not be much, but it was something, especially for such a big and influential organization.
Which bring us to the issue referenced to in the title: Their glossary no longer has said entry. They seem to have edited the page and PDF version that year (which i’m guessing from the title of the current document, “glossary_october_2015_edition.pdf”) and asexuality no longer seemed relevant to them.
Now, i’m writing this at 1am so i don’t have any more information than that, but i do know that:
They still include definitions for Bisexual, Gay, Homosexual, Lesbian and Queer (but deleted Heterosexual);
They also deleted Sexual identity, defined as “the sense of being homosexual, bisexual, heterosexual or asexual. The term is used as a legal term in countries such as Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Spain”; and
If you search for asexual or asexuality on their website, you get zero results.
Esta es una continuación al artículo que publiqué el año pasado aquí en el blog, con citas de profesionales de la salud chilenes hablando sobre asexualidad en diversos medios de comunicación.
Empecemos con una sorpresa: un libro publicado el 2013.

An update on the post i wrote last year about Chilean health professionals talking about asexuality. It includes a quote from a 2013 book on HSSD.
