Sentient Android Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Hi guys! Well... after being linked to this site on Tumblr, I decided to join! Figured it might be useful, 'cause I've been going through a hell of a lot of questioning my romantic orientation. Suppose it'll be useful to talk with some other arospec people about that. A bit about me: - Completely obsessed with science fiction - Robots and computers are awesome - Star Trek and Doctor Who are awesome - Technically my orientation is asexual demi-panromantic with a preference, but I just go with gay ace because that's easier to explain - Out to my friends and some family as gay - Out to no one IRL as non-binary (androgynous) - I do lots of LGBTQ+ advocating - I write stuff too (mostly sci-fi) - I have synesthesia, misophonia, dermatillomania, and various phobias - I like using Photoshop Gosh, that's an awful lot of info. Looking forward to getting to know some of you guys! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

omitef Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Welcome to Arocalypse! I also try to make LGBT+ activism a part of my life, though I've found that most people tend to not care about issues unless they're personally affected by the issues... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is true... but most of what I do is more along the lines of awareness. For example, my GSA didn't know what "aromantic" meant until I defined the term for them.
