Buck from the Ice Age series, anyone?

On the one hand, he does seem more interested in chasing Rudy the dinosaur than settling down with a romantic partner. On the other hand: "I woke up one morning married to a pineapple. An ugly pineapple. *sighs wistfully* But I loved her."

I don't watch a huge amount of anime, but one I stumbled across that I really like is Sound of the Sky. It's about a group of teenage girls being slightly incompetent soldiers in a post-apocalyptic world. The characters are fantastic and it's aro-friendly with a strong emphasis on friendship/sisterhood rather than romance. It's also very picturesque and the emotional stuff is powerful - one episode actually moved me to tears.

I'm also a fan of Ouran High School Host Club. This one is a high school anime clearly aimed at straight girls (lots of very pretty boys and romantic fantasies) but the main female character has a strong ace/aro vibe, as well as being gender non-conforming. It's also funny, witty and plays with stereotypes in an entertaining way.

When I was 11 I got roped into playing spin the bottle. When it was my turn to kiss someone, I ran away and hid in the toilets.

I'm a "sometimes" with all of these - it depends on the person, the situation and the mood I'm in. The kind of touch I like best is having my hair played with. Feels great and takes me right back to childhood.  My least favourite kind of touch is when someone puts their hand on the small of my back. I'm not sure why it bothers me so much but it feels possessive and weird.
