aaaand once again the aspec community has shown it cannot handle internal criticism. aroallo ppl expressing frustration over sex negativity and complete lack of us in discussions about aphobia isn't hate unless you're the person doing the sex negativity

#☢️.txt #'im sex repulsed' ok? dont see how that changes anything!#fwiw i also think ppl treating romance as disgusting is harmful #sex and romance + how they intersect with marginalization are extremely complicated!#an allo person with the exact same characteristics as me wouldnt necessarily be treated better!#in certain spaces sure. but from personal experience im not treated that differently #sometimes i have to explain stuff or im the odd one out bc i dont Get something #like i get that other aspec ppl have different experiences but my point here was that #theres an issue in the community where ppl expressing that a commonly held opinion doesnt fit them #and many ppl take it personally or insist they need to use a microlabel #instead of accepting that ace and aro are very personal labels describing a wide range of experiences #and you have to account for that whenever you try to make a broad statement #(ex: talking about aphobia/that aro/ace are only modifiers and not full identities by treating those using them as modifiers as outliers)#anyways got an anon accusing me of hating aroace people bc i complained about aro erasure and sex negativity
