Can of worms in some communities (on AVEN there's a somewhat prominent amount of asexuals who say that Asexuality isn't LGBTQ), but most would say yes I think. We face oppression in society, just look at the public mocking by types like M*tt W*lsh (Daily Wire host)

I think "I Kissed Dating Goodbye and I Liked It" would be a funny play on the title, but that's the former fundie kid talking 😂 (There was a Christian fundie book called "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" that denounced the practice of dating in favor of "courting".) Add: Listened to the actual cover, it's great!

It's ok if you decide you're not aromantic or that you're somewhere else on the aromantic spectrum. Completely ok! It takes time to sort these things out and that's ok!

I have a large aromantic flag that I don't remember where I ordered from - one of those websites offering it for free if you pay shipping. I have a pack of 50 little ace flags that I got off Amazon!

I think the way it makes the most sense is that "it's a committed relationship that is not romantic and yet too similar to a romantic relationship to be considered conventionally platonic".

Yay!

I love these

I take non-stimulant meds for ADHD and am grey-aro grey-ace

I consider myself sex favorable in a sense as a lithsexual ace, but I don't actually wish to have the sex. I do have sexual dreams occasionally, have one right now that's a recurring one where I keep having lesbian sex.

I'm basically "please don't touch me ever"

I love Collies

One of my friends is extra special to me in a mostly non-romantic fashion, if that counts.

Mostly I'm just like "why tho?" While also wanting to be happy for them. In a rare case, I'm just a tad bit jealous of the attention my friend is giving their s/o.

Hi! Welcome 🐶

Introverted, and avoidant. But def not secretive, I blast my life at full volume despite not ultimately wanting to get close to anyone.

Gender non conforming is basically just not living according to gender stereotypes, challenging said stereotypes. Anyone can be GNC, cis, nb, or trans. Someone who is trans identifies as a gender that is different than their birth sex and is typically working to transition to that gender visually. Anyways, I'm back to identify as a cis woman.

Same. I never felt badly about being aro or ace.

Just once more, just once more "I will roll again today I know for sure" Oh that girl said, what she said Playing every word and playing to pretend "Just once more?" "No, no, more." Take my hand and come with me It will be okay Please, just let me hold your breath FOR NOW...

I have had a couple crushes in the past, which is why I identify as grey-aromantic/probably demiromantic. I also used to think about having a romantic partner, but I never had a longing for it. I did at one point find the idea of a marriage and family and children appealing, but it was not a strong desire. That said, aro's come in all shapes and sizes! Some like the idea of a romantic relationship despite lacking those feelings, some hate the whole shebang. If you haven't had romantic attraction since that one crush, I think you can call yourself aromantic or, if you like, grey-aromantic.

There are times I feel like a bit of a scrooge when it comes to romance.

I think their response to bisexuality would be about the same. Aro or ace-spec I'm not sure, I don't think it would be a negative response but there might be some confusion. My pfp is digital art I did ^^

Worst (coming out as bi, which I identified with at the time, on a Christian forum) involved someone telling me they had my personal information and were debating on whether to out me to my church leaders. They said it was because I had stated that I work in children's ministry, and that I cannot be allowed to "indoctrinate" the kids. Best was this past summer on FB, I came out publicly as a lesbian. I got lots of love and someone from my church offered me a hug next time she saw me. I didn't get any backlash from it at all. I had been so very scared, but it worked out. Last year I had come out to just one church elder, and talked to her about coming out.
