I just love how being aro affects the way I see society and how I want to be and to live around people. I love how much I learned by questioning all the social norms the alloromantic society made up

I was watching a reportage about feminism and when a woman described her abusive relationship worh her boyfriend, I just realized how lucky I was cause that will never happen to me. Of course I'm not immune to sexism, and I know that all men are not like this, but I just realized that not dating men means that there is a part of sexism tthatI am not at risk to experience. Of course there is intersectionality between sexism and amatonormativity, but I won't start to date a man, realize then that he is toxic, or violent, and being seen as responsible if I dare go to the police.

i feel like it's easier to just like

focus on things i enjoy rather than get caught up in romance and stuff

it just seems so consuming sometimes

honestly from what ive seen of the crushes and relationships my friends have, it sounds like so much work and fluff and nonsense and im super happy that i do not have to deal with that kind of stuff. ive got more time to spend on things i actually care about!
