#support aromantics

Hi, if you don’t believe ace/aro/demi, basically anybody on the asexual/aromantic spectrum doesn’t belong in the lgbtqia+ community. You are wrong. Your opinion is invalid. You’re not cute. Growing up not allosexual/not traditionally romantic has its own unique struggle that comes with systemic oppression and even sadly targeted violence. Excluding ace/aro identities from queer spaces ultimately only further isolates thus endangering people just trying to exist. It’s 2020, support your fucking community and grow up. Anybody that disagrees can line up to get maced.

as an aromantic person, I constantly feel like I’m not putting out enough aromantic pride or positivity posts because there really is barely any out there. so for any other aromantics that feel this way please know that it’s alright to take breaks and you don’t have to constantly crank out aro pride/positivity stuff just to make up for the general lack of it. you don’t have to be the sole voice for aromantic positivity and pride on here! we all have your back and I will continue to try to make as much aro pride and positivity posts as I can while also uplifting other aromantics voices.

if an aromantic person is more comfortable with using crush then the aro equivalents don’t yell at them. someone saying they are aromantic and have a crush isn’t directly contradictory as they could just like the term more. crush doesn’t always equal romantic attraction for people so be mindful of other aromantics experiences.
