#asexual news

[breaking-news-the-aroace-has]

After a brief sexuality crisis, the aroace has remained firm in their identity while renewing their aesthetic appreciation of titties.

Broadcaster's note: There was supposed to be a pun with identity and iden-TITTY, but the aroace has butchered it, much to their disappointment :(

My mom sent me this very worried on my behalf. :)

Anecdotally, people in the asexual community report their identities are pathologized by medical professionals, who order unnecessary tests or fail to perform necessary screenings because patients report feeling little or no sexual desire. When people on the ace spectrum turn to their doctors for help understanding their identities, they can be met with stigma and stereotypes. Some are misdiagnosed with conditions like depression and their asexuality is seen as a symptom that needs to be fixed. Flibanserin, a drug prescribed to increase sex drive, has been described by bioethicists as the "asexual equivalent of conversion therapy."

...

It wasn’t until 2013 that through advocacy from the Asexuality Visibility Education Network (AVEN), the APA added a clause that stated people with a lifelong absence of sexual desire who identified as asexual should not be classified as having a disorder.

'oh wow these aromantic and asexual identities are cool, I should research them to learn how to best support this community, but I'm definitely not aromantic or asexual!'

I'm a fucking dumbass, that's what I am.

Emergency medical Updates. Hello my dear friends, I hope everyone is well and enjoys the winter celebrations, with their families and loved ones.

I have posted the update to thank you for your support and donation to us and I hope that you will continue to support us to save money in trying to continue living in alienation and trying to support my family in Gaza, if the donations allow it.

€570 -> €1000 new goals .

Almost every Palestinian no longer works and only depends on anything we can get after standing in queues for hours to get a plate of food, and if food runs out, we stop eating that day. As adults, we can afford it. But how can a child calm his little stomach? As a parent, how is one supposed to calm down a hungry child?The bag of flour is $350, the price is very high. My brother bought it and there is a picture that explains that.

The list goes on in Gaza and we in Egypt suffer from high rents and expenses to continue living despite the lack of our own source of income. While I know that you are not responsible for what is happening on our soil, I ask you to continue to stand with us. I ask you to continue to be our allies and I also know that this is not an easy task. All I wish is that these dark times stop, that we can shed tears, heal our wounds, and rebuild the life we deserve to live.

Safely. With love and gratitude, Muhammad and Shorooq🫂🫶❤️🇵🇸.

Happy birthday! ❤️️☃️️❄️

it’s ace week apparently so here’s my two cents contribution in the form of this short old personal comic

[saintestefania]

No, i'm not broken

No, I don't need good sex to "understand"

No, I'm not traumatized

Yes, I'm asexual, get over it.

I decided to be in the closet because is to difficult to explain how is it being asexual. But I'm fuckking pride of myself and who I am!

On October 30, I will write to you the latest updates about our lives in Gaza⬆️📣

In the previous picture, there is a list of prices in Gaza for basic food items, most of which are not available, and if they are available, they are very expensive. You know, after my first campaign was stopped, I started a new campaign so that I could cover the basic necessities for me and my family, and donations are very few and non-existent. I am looking for all the ways to save money for my family

New suffering for my family .It's very dangerous

The shortage and high prices of detergents in Gaza are very alarming in light of the current war situation ...

The impact of war on hygiene and the spread of diseases: The war on Gaza has not only destroyed buildings and infrastructure but also targeted essential services that directly affect people's lives, including clean water and sanitation systems. The Israeli occupation, by deliberately targeting these vital services, contributes to the increased spread of diseases and epidemics. The absence of basic hygiene supplies such as soap,disinfectants, and clean drinking water leads to an unhealthy environment, causing diseases to spread quickly, especially among children and the elderly. In this context, maintaining hygiene becomes nearly impossible in the absence of basic resources, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.

A call for help: In the face of this difficult humanitarian situation, we turn to kind-hearted people and anyone who has the ability to help to contribute to providing the necessary hygiene supplies for my family and other families suffering like us. Yourdonations will help protect the health of children, women, and the elderly who are facing the daily risk of disease.

Saving a child's life could start with a bar of soap, and protecting a family from epidemics could be achieved by providing disinfectants or clean water.

People when a character is aromantic or aromantic coded: Wowie! They’re aroACE! Because they aren’t interested in romance! Look at how aroace they are!

People when a character is aroace or aroace coded: Isn’t it cool that this character is asexual? Asexual icon! They’re such great asexual representation :)

[residences-of-the-darkforest]

ACE CHARACTER?!?!?!

EDIT: I said this in a reblog but the book is Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle! Look at the reblog for a synopsis of it, some more pride characters, and a picture of the author!!

Also, it was confirmed she’s ace and aro!

In June, I was watching a YouTube video about asexuality when someone mentioned that asexual people aren't subjected to conversion therapy. This didn't sit right with me at all. A quick fact-check Google search quickly sent me down a rabbit hole about how a lack of sexual attraction is often treated as a medical problem to be fixed.

Many interviews and 6 months later, I covered science and medicine's changing attitudes toward asexuality it in a feature article in Scientific American's January 2024 issue! I'm so grateful to everyone who lent their expertise to the article 💜

"... Over the past two decades psychological studies have shown that asexuality should be classified not as a disorder but as a stable sexual orientation akin to homosexuality or heterosexuality. Both cultural awareness and clinical medicine have been slow to catch on. It's only recently that academic researchers have begun to look at asexuality not as an indicator of health problems but as a legitimate, underexplored way of being human."
