just when i thought that they had come to the consensus that ace = the lack of sexual attraction
what the fuck do words even mean anymore
This is everything about my reaction to the concept of asexuals. I’m like ok. I guess that could be a thing. Then tumblr does this with it. You can be asexual if you’re a bisexual horny kinky porn addicted sex monster who masturbates any time you’re not fucking.
Sure whatever. Why do concepts need to mean anything. Just hand out labels like candy. I’m asexual. We’re all trans neurodivergent asexual. Whatever the fuck.
So I can, right now, just claim to be a transgender asexual person because sometimes I don’t have sex and I don’t fit every single stereotype for a man?
According to Tumblr, yes.
That’s goddamn ridiculous

So many people apparently reblogged this uncritically because “lol those crazy asexuals/tumblr users/special snowflakes!”,without even considering the huge amount of damage insidious little phrases like “so I can just claim to be a transgender person-” have done. But I guess you gotta believe the little lies before you can believe the big ones.
