Huge shoutout to Aromantic Allosexual people, you are wonderful and just as valid as the rest of us, you belong and are loved, even if it may not seem like it right now!

You’re not supposed to be like me. You deserve to be like you.

Never think, “I’m probably not really aromantic, because I’m not as completely aromantic as that person.”

Never think, “I’m probably not really asexual, because I’m not as completely asexual as that person.”

People like me are over-represented on the aromantic and asexual spectra, because we have the time and social appetite to be more visible. It can give the misleading impression that we represent what aromanticism, asexuality, or aromantic asexuality look like.

I was in the middle of writing a 1,500 word essay complete with scatter graphs and shit, but this was important, so for now I’ll just say it, and prove it later, because I think you know this is true, or at least probable:

There are a lot of people who feel like they experience a little less romantic or sexual attraction than other people do, but who still have found a way to make a relationship work. Many of them will never even hear about aromanticism or asexuality, and if they do they’ll think it must apply to someone other than them, because they’re with someone. Their “invisibility” (by way of not self-identifying as aspec) means their ends of the asexual and aromantic spectra are underrepresented or even erased.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

On this scale, 5 and 6 are safely in the middle of the purple numbers.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

On this scale, where 1-4 have excluded themselves, 5 and 6 are on the edge of the purple numbers.

The under representation or erasure of non-self-identifying aromantic and asexuals means you might feel like more of an edge-case or an outlier than you are, because it’s the real edge-cases and outliers—the very asexual or very aromantic—who generate most of the written discourse about aromanticism or asexuality, because we have more time to, and we have a stronger motivation to connect with others like us.

But you belong here. You’re probably the invisible majority of us, and have a lot to teach us about your far-more-complicated end of our spectra.

Acting too much for you culture? Keep going. You belong in your cultures.

If you think you don’t belong, you’re not worthy enough, think again. You’re made of elements like silver , platinum and gold. The whole cosmos is within us.

Mary Oliver Wild Geese You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes on. Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain are moving across the landscapes, over the prairies and the deep trees, the mountains and the rivers. Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again. Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting– over and over announcing your place in the family of things.
