happy ace week to everyone whose experiences don’t fit what people expect. aces using microlabels to explain these differences and find community. aces told they’re not *really* ace because they defy expectations, as if they don’t know themselves. you matter. I’m glad you’re here. have a great week!

a lot of the asks coming into this blog are in the tone of, "is this allowed?"

"am i allowed to call myself X, even though Y?" "am i allowed to be here?" "am i allowed to feel this way?" guys i am not a cop. you don't need to ask permission.

this is not meant negatively! i understand that sometimes you just feel doubt and like you don't belong or you're alone, and need someone to affirm you, and i am so honored and happy to be that someone.

but just to be safe i made you this permit. free to use without credit. you're welcome.

IT IS OKAY IF YOUR ASEXUALITY IS CAUSED BY TRAUMA If you no longer feel sexual attraction and feel connected to the asexual community you can be asexual. There aren’t any rules, you don’t have to be born this way, you can be asexual.

Ace week positivity day 7:

Tw: sex-related words included.

This post is dedicated to all acespecs that need someone to hear them out. To all the acespecs that feel guilty for not being able to fulfill their partner’s sexual needs. To all the aspecs (I know I went a little broad with this term) who think they will be lonely for the rest of their life because no one will want to be with them if “that stuff” isn’t included in the package. To all the acespecs who think they are unable to connect with people because no one has ever showed them that there is more to connecting with people than just being a couple and kissing and having sex. To all the acespecs that have never been told that there is a broad spectrum of grays and tones and colors and shapes and corners when having a relationship with another human being (either platonic, romantic, familiar, friendly, of respect, etc. Etc.) and that they don’t have to be alone. To all the acespecs that are seen like weirdos by this stupid society that makes you believe that romance and sex is all you need to have a fulfilling life. To all the alloaces that have a different experience to mine and sometimes are overridden by aroace people in their discourses, but are still as valid because the romantic and the sexuality spectrums are spectrums for a reason. To all the acespecs that haven’t found yet a micro label that fits them well enough and are struggling with finding themselves in the process. To all the acespecs that don’t use micro labels because there is nothing that describes their experience as well as themselves. To all the friends I’ve made along the way of me finding myself and using tumblr as my coping mechanism because I’ve had rough days myself. To all my fellow acespecs that have come to the community because of trauma. To @spacepocketghost and @smilechiales and @dragons-are-butterflies for making my days feel better this past few weeks. Happy ace week to you all.

I send you all a big hug and a pat-pat on the head because you are still alive and you’ve reached the end of the ace week 2024 so congratulations! I’m here for you, I hear you, I respect you.

You are valid.
