Holly_Lovegood Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Hi, I found this site while looking for information for asexual awareness week. I'm Aroace but more confident in my ace identity because my autism means I'm touch repulsed, while I'm still relatively young at 21 so I may end up being greyromantic. I'm quite open about my sexuality because I feel safe in my community and feel that understanding reduces bad feelings, so I try and do my part to try and make sure that the next person that comes out (not that they have to) feels safer doing so and comes out to an understanding ear. I feel like explaining some of my identity has become a part time job some of the time, because aside from being Aroace I'm autistic and a Quaker both of which come with a fair amount of misinformation. Overall I'm mainly here to hear stories from my fellow Aros and gain more confidence in the other part of my identity. Quote

Queasy_Attention Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 Nice to meet you! I love the mindset of being out and proud as whoever you are, to give other people a sense of security in their own identities. I want to be that person, even when it's hard sometimes. Welcome to the forums! Quote
