3 Jot-Aro Kujo Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 (edited) Scary how many people here I'm seeing say, like, "porn", or "queer something-or-other". That's not a guilty pleasure! That's a perfectly normal, healthy thing to be interested in- Which isn't me saying that everyone is into that, obviously, but like, there's nothing wrong with having an interest in sex or romance or what have you. Yes, even if you're ace and only looking at it out of curiousity (although in that case, I would strongly advise you to take a moment to think about why you're describing other people's emotions and interests as something weird and bad. That's not very nice). Why does that have to be a "guilty pleasure"? Why is sexuality and queerness something negative and shameful to you, instead of something you can unabashedly take part in? I'm not saying this to accuse people of anything, for what it's worth. I'm saying it to try to open people up to internalized homophobia and sex negativity. Why do you feel that being into these things is something negative? Who is telling you such, and why? Is it actually something bad? What message are you sending to others when you describe these things in this way? Ask yourselves these questions. Anyway, my guilty pleasure is the live action Monster High movie lol Edited March 31 by Jot-Aro Kujo 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 DeltaAro Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 🚨PSA: Wikipedia says:: Quote A guilty pleasure is something, such as a film, a television program, a piece of music, or an activity, that one enjoys despite understanding that it is not generally held in high regard, or is seen as unusual or weird. For example, a person may secretly like a film but will admit that particular film is poorly made and/or generally seen as "not good". It can also be used to refer to one's taste for foods that are considered to be advisable to avoid, especially for health reasons.[1][2] For example, coffee, alcoholic beverages, and smoking are considered by many to be guilty pleasures.[3] ➡️ LOTS of examples here aren't really guilty pleasures and better belong in the "How are You a 'Bad' Aromantic Spectrum Person?" thread OR in the "How are You a 'Bad' Asexual Spectrum Person?" thread... if that thread existed... yes, why does it not exist?? 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 HelloThere Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 On 6/1/2023 at 11:37 PM, Lovebird said: It's because some people in the aro/ace community still hold onto their perception of "cringe culture", anytime I spoke up about liking "weird" romantic/sexual things, i'd be called "cringy" for enjoying it. So I've kept quiet to avoid "looking like an allo" for enjoying such things. I know they're not inherently "gulity" as even I agree that contributes to negativity, but it feels so hard to enjoy without that voice in your head being like "don't you know this is cringe and the aros/aces will hate you for it" Like it's literally the reason why I never say I have an s/o in aro spaces because now even having a romantic partner is "cringe" in some aro circles. It really shouldn’t be that way. I mean I don’t understand it much, and I might ignore but no one should be considered “cringe” for liking romance. Romance disgust in general tends to take over on aro sites and just further continues the stereotype that you have to be romance disgusted to be aro. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Holmbo Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Listing to recap podcasts. Whenever I read or watch something I want to listen to a podcast which discusses it. Right now I'm listening to Ted lasso podcasts because I'm very excited for season three. I already listened to the most popular ones before so now I'm going through some that are not as good just cause it's fun to get new takes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 The Aro Mando Echo Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) Watching Cringe TikTok compilations 😭 sometimes it's just nice to watch when I feel bad about myself, even though I know its bad to judge other people... You guys should see some of the stuff on there though, a lot of it is just bad thirst traps. Edit: I also like to eat waffles frozen, right out of the freezer Edited March 21 by The Aro Mando Echo adding on to my answer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Keith Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 1. Watching TikTok complications or just Tik Tok in general. 2. Reading fanfictions. 3. Watching "gacha react" videos or just gacha videos in general. They can be cringy, but also really entertaining at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
