my favorite thing is asexuals trying to explain sexual attraction to other asexuals bc it always ends up like

Ace 1: idk what it is. do u know what it is?
Ace 2: I mean I guess it’s kind of like when you really want pizza but? It’s? Someone’s? Body?
Ace 1: uhhhhhhmmmm
Ace 2: *vague hand motions*

i drew granny again but this time shes flying around using the aro and ace flags as a cape bc shes aroace. “but she wouldnt do that theyre too colorful it would mess with her aesthetic” shhhhhhhh irrelevant

mowilleno:

james from pokemon’s team rocket

ran away from home to avoid an arranged marriage

on two separate occasions that a scheme required him to at least pretend to be interested in someone, jessie had to force him

is extremely terrified and uncomfortable when a girl proclaims her love for him

when one of these schemes doesn’t work out and team rocket blasts off, he shouts “AT LEAST I’M STILL SINGLE”

conclusion: he aro

if you are ASEXUAL, you do not experience SEXUAL ATTRACTION.

if you are AROMANTIC, you do not experience ROMANTIC ATTRACTION.

if you are AROMATIC, you have a PLEASANT AND DISTINCTIVE SMELL.

And if you are AUTOMATIC, SYSTEMATIC, and HYDROMATIC, why then you’re GREASED LIGHTENINGGGGG

I was not prepared

Romance: unknown, seems to be “best friends with sex”. I’m clearly missing something. (People treat it as separate from sex, a bigger deal than friendship) So: what is romance.

I don’t really entirely know. I would have pretty much agreed with that definition at one point, but there are people who have romance without much friendship, and now I just don’t even know. It doesn’t appear to be inherently sexual, although there’s a ton of correlation. I have no idea.

Romance, IMO, is when you don’t just Have Feelings about someone, you also Have Feelings about Having Feelings about them. Barring that, just watch the Addams Family movies.

wow, it is really hard to explain how romance is different from friendship. i feel both toward seebs, and they’re not the same. and it’s not remotely just sex. but any attempt i could make to explain it would just turn into poetry. i can’t be concrete about it.

i think romantic love is one of those things that can’t be explained directly, like enlightenment.

All aces and aros are a part of the LGBT community.

not if they’re cishet lmao fuck off

If someone is asexual, they are not heterosexual.

If someone is aromantic, they are not heteroromantic.

If someone is agender, they are not cisgender.

If the last one isn’t controversial, why are the first two?
