Ace friends, does the concept of someone else being attracted to you feel off, or ill-fitting in some way? Feel free to add nuance in the replies

Oh I have a timelapse of this comic up on Tiktok if you're keen to watch:

From the article: "In recent weeks, academics who focus on improving the health of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer Americans have been subjected to waves of grant cancellations from the National Institutes of Health. More than 270 grants totaling at least $125 million of unspent funds have been eliminated, though the true sum is likely much greater, researchers told NBC News. "

Work was a bit too exhausting for me to get in on the Int'l Asexuality Day bandwagon yesterday so here I am still tired af and a day late.

I'm ace, I'm kinky, and I'm into rubber and a bunch of other things, and I'm here to make it everybody else's problem in all the good ways.

(I don't have much choice in the matter anyways, because I'm a bit stuck in this formal pride suit! >////////>;;; )

Anyone who calls the International #Asexuality Day a "fake oppression day" has NO idea what the fuck they’re talking about. It’s embarrassing.

And SMUG those weirdos are. "lol you're not murdered in the streets so it doesn't count".

It would be funny, if it weren’t so sad. We just want to tell the world it's OKAY to be #asexual, to educate people.

Discrimination is still real tho, I just cited scientific data. I guess that doesn’t count either then?

Weirdos.

I need more ace friends, if you are ace pls be my friend #asexual #ace

looked up a circa 2017 profile where I had written pansexual because nobody knows what #asexual is, but today enough people know what it is for JKR to hate us. proud

I'm a day late but that's ok! The journey of self discovery is never on a timeline!

This is what #liberals really think of #trans folks.

HOT TAKE: If you don’t feel comfortable that your future children might turn out to be asexual, you shouldn’t have children because you would #FAIL as a parent.

The results of the recent #ace #study "#Asexuality in the #UK: Public attitudes towards people who experience
little to no sexual attraction" have some not-so-encouraging numbers. I’ve decided to annotate some of the graphs in that paper.

("Direct" and "List" refers to different methods to present the prompt, see the paper for details)

I just read an excellent article about the background of small study about prejudice against #asexual people and how even the #LGBTQIA+ community is falling behind here.

I wish there will be more research like this in the future, especially with larger sample sizes, so we get closer to the truth.
