En sus trabajos, ella usa la palabra «anafrodita» para describir a aquellos que «no experimentan adoración por ningún tipo de persona o seres humanos». Nuestra diversidad también se hizo presente.

Esto ocurrió en 1869 , y aunque no es exactamente una teoría sobre la asexualidad como la conocemos hoy, él marcó el camino a encontrar nuestra orientación.

Karl Maria Kertbeny, el hombre que impulsó las palabras heterosexual y homosexual, también eligió la palabra «monosexual» para referirse a las personas que solo se masturbaban y no tenían relaciones sexuales con otras personas (deseo dirigido a él mismo).

🔎 La asexualidad desde sus primeras aproximaciones Los estudios sobre asexualidad son recientemente nuevos, vamos a decir que es hoy donde toma significado; pero dónde apareció por primera vez la palabra asexual en referencia a la sexualidad humana.

It's disheartening that some responses to my recent tweet about asexuality-related harassment and prejudice happening amount to "yyyyeah I'm not convinced it does." Paired with a nice side of "OK but even IF that happens to you it's not bad enough or isn't because you're ace."

And meeting other aces in the wild really helps me feel better, but having ace characters who aren’t portrayed as weird or broken and who are in relationships that are happy and stable just means so fucking much.

My cousin once asked me if being asexual meant I was in an open relationship. Because obviously I wasn’t enough for my gf at the time without having sex with her. And that kind of comment REALLY isn’t great, especially when you’re prone to overthinking.

Because after repeatedly having to explain what asexuality is, that yes, I am able to have a healthy relationship, that yes, my partner is ok with it, that yes, there's nothing wrong with me, it's good to be reminded that there is, in fact, nothing wrong with me.

Because I had never even heard of asexuality until I was in my late 30s and knowing that I wasn't broken would have... it would have changed a lot of things, tbh.

People assume ace people are sex repulsed or will judge them. I've had someone try to protect me from sexual jokes and themes. ಠ_ಠ

This is extremely troubling. Aroace comic creator Maia Kobabe (e/em/eir) is being sued by U.S. politicians. They claim that Gender Queer, eir graphic memoir about eir life as a non-binary, aromantic and asexual person, is obscene. bleedingcool.com/comics/oni-pre…

- for the gynecologist to believe me, that i am a virgin in hetero romantic relationship; - for the psychiatrist to write in documents my orientation, instead of "low libido"; - for strangers from therapeutic group to not question my statement

Just seems like whenever I discuss how something negative/oppressive happens in direct response to something associated with my asexuality, I'm still sneered at by those who insist being ace is ALWAYS the least relevant thing about me (even though it's why THEY are attacking me).

It DOES happen, and we get medical abuse, partner abuse, parental and guardian abuse, housing prejudice, mental health professional abuse, interpersonal harassment and violence, "corrective" rape and conversion therapy. But acephobia is rarely acknowledged as the cause here.

These people whine that ace hate couldn't happen or that it doesn't, or worse, that it happens because we became visible/came out. (Y'all, when we DON'T, we just get abused for not being straight properly, which is ironic since acephobes love to call us "straight virgins.")

I had a dude literally lunge at me to force a kiss on me in a car AFTER I said no, and when I got out and escaped he yelled after me that he was "one of the ones who wants to help you!" (a phenomenon I'd discussed with him earlier when he pretended to be an ace ally).
