downworlder appreciation week: day two » favorite downworlder friendship
reasons why ace/aro representation is really fucking important in the media
- aro/ace kids getting into relationships in high school just so they can say they’re in a relationship and feel “normal”
- aro/ace people doubting themselves because they don’t feel attraction
- aro/ace spectrum people doubting themselves because they do feel attraction, just not all the time/not the “right” kind
- sherlock is said to be asexual for a purpose, not because he doesn’t have a sex drive, but because it’s suppressed to do his work.”
- people thinking sexual attraction and sex drive are the same thing
- not only do people think asexuality is to do with plants, some think asexuality refers to sea horses. SEA HORSES.
- the lack of a dictionary definition means there’s no proof for aro/ace people to use to back themselves up
- “you just haven’t met The One yet”
- films, tv shows and books turning what could be a great platonic relationship into an unnecessary, bland romantic relationship
- people using aromanticism/asexuality as an angst trope
- asexuals and aromantics can be in denial about their sexual/romantic orientation for months
- canon asexual characters are the stone cold villains and the few asexual celebrities out there have their asexuality ignored and erased
- not a day goes by when i don’t doubt myself or my sexuality
- having no well-known asexuals/aromantics makes it really fucking lonely
The real reason Maia doesn’t have a love interest right now
For all of the people who were saying “he never said asexual, it could just be his religion”, David explicitly said that Raphael was asexual in his live chat yesterday :)
