It’s Asexual Awareness Week

So, as an asexual person myself, I’ve decided to give some reminders for all you lovely ace people.

• You are valid
• You are real
• You are a part of the LGBT community
• You can have a fulfilling relationship without sex
• If you feel like you aren’t fulfilling your partner because you don’t have sex, you are wrong, your partner would not be with you if they didn’t feel fulfilled
• Although, if your partner claims they aren’t fulfilled because you aren’t having sex with them, dump their ass and find someone who respects you
• You can be ace no matter your age, gender, race, etc.
• IT’S OKAY TO BE ACE AND LIKE SEX
• IT’S OKAY TO BE ACE AND LIKE SEX
• IT’S OKAY TO BE ACE AND LIKE SEX
• You do not have to be aromantic to be ace (I’m a biromantic ace myself)
• However, aro-ace people are just as valid
• You are not obligated to explain the nuances of your asexuality to anyone unless you’re planning to have sex with them
• TW – SEXUAL ASSAULT
• Having been assaulted is not always why you’re asexual, but sometimes, having been assaulted is why you’re asexual. Both are valid. (change made here because what I wrote earlier wasn’t phrased well)
• TW OVER
• You are not “broken”
• You are not a “prude”
• Demisexuals, Greysexuals, Cupiosexuals, and anyone else on the ace spectrum are also valid
• But, most of all

You are loved

Happy Asexual Awareness Week!
