I know someone exactly like this to the point where I needed to recheck the age because t could've been her and she is abnormally obsessed with drawn gay porn.

Also she's so loving miserable and I can't stand her. Because of her and the constant stream of Ace community poo poo she would reblog on Tumblr im making the sweeping generalization that asexual people are weird as hell, desperate to be oppressed and I want to be proven wrong but haven't been yet

my last roommate was "asexual" and she never shut up about gay homestuck sex fanfic and also anal sex

all the asexual people I've known are the most sex obsessed people it's weird as hell I don't get it

there used to be a thing on tumblr positing that straight dudes who could only have emotionless sex ("aromantic hetero") was a valid identity under the LGBT umbrella

the whole thing sounds like straight-up bullshit to me

I called his mom who had no idea anything happened. She laid it out and gave me context and said that she’d talk to him and get him to call me. She reminded me that it was his sister's birthday, too. I had completely missed that fact. I know I really messed that up, but I have no idea what to say beyond “I’m sorry.” I don’t know how to repair this and feel really bad. 

And then she doubles drown and makes it her SO's mom's problem, too. Who she probably doesn't realize might know her son's dead twin sister.

I used to work with a lesbian that would talk at length about two things

1. The sadism-oriented gay fan-fiction she wrote about various anime

2. The many ways she could break my bones because of her martial arts training


Nice girl, she used to invite me to lunch all the time when I lived in her area. She writes me letters sometimes to update me on the status of her fan-fiction endeavors.

Oh hell yeah. Constantly talking about Bucky Barnes loving Captain America or somesuch. But there was one point where she said she just didn't understand why people enjoy dirty talk. So the other people in the conversation, including myself just started talking about what the appeal is behind it as people who weren't asexual and she freaked the gently caress out on everyone for being heteronormative.
Christ I could talk at length about her being strange as hell.

How do they react when you call them out on it? "For someone that considers themselves asexual, you seem pretty sexual to me." is what you might ask.

I gotta wonder if they think being a sexual normie means they have to abide by arbitrary rules in society, and by being asexual, they can be exempt from them. Sorta like people self-diagnosing as having Asperger's or Soverign Citizens; they don't want to deal with all these rules and norms we're all subject to so they position themselves so that they are never held to the same standard.

The math is as follow for determining what homosexual porn you enjoy: X*Y where X is equal to the gender of the person whose porn habits we look to solve with 1 for man and 2 for woman, and where Y is their sexuality wher hetero is 1 and homo is 2. For any result that isnt 1, you like dudes loving each other.

QED: Everybody likes gay men porn except straight dudes which makes them the minority aka the sex weirds.

I think from what I've seen there's an element of "well people are sex-starved animals who spend every waking moment either having sex or thinking about sex, according to the media, so obviously since I don't do that I must be asexual!" because, you know, there's no inaccuracy in media portrayals!

That's what I thought initially, but the more I think about it the more I wonder if it has to do with being able to sidestep various rules and norms in society. For example, I'm pretty sure a lot of these Tumblr asexuals have a lot of traits in common in regards to age range, race, background, etc. I doubt there are many outspoken Tumblr asexuals that are truly confident and successful because those types of people don't need to shout from the rafters how much they're not interested in sex. It is the people who feel slighted in some ways; maybe they themselves never felt like anyone else saw them as sexual, so they adopted the asexual identity and ran with it. Or maybe they are really lovely with personal boundaries and by identifying as asexual they can claim to somehow not be held accountable for their behavior.

When I read about a lot of this type of internet drama I see a recurring pattern of childish people trying to adopt an identity to justify why they shouldn't have to change their behavior or attitude. I think its more than just wanting to be a member of the club/oppression olympics.

You are an ace-exclusionary, heteronormative bigot. You should see the lateral violence towards the rest of the lgbtq community the moment anyone suggests that aces prrooooobably haven't faced a lot of the same discrimination

Being asexual is a real thing, but there are also physical and mental conditions that can result in low sex drives/discomfort with sex. It's probably easier to apply the wrong label to yourself and find an internet crowd to validate it than to go to your doctor or find a therapist and have an awkward discussion and deal with a problem.

I know a married woman in her 30s who identifies as ace. She and her husband are both active christians, so maybe that has something to do with it. I feel bad for her husband, but he chose to marry her so I guess he's down with near-celibacy forever.

Why would anyone marry an asexual person. Why would you want to be with someone who states in no uncertain terms that they are not sexually attracted to you and that it is impossible for that to ever change. "Thanks for letting us have sex tonight, I know what an unpleasant chore it is for you."
