#i am aroace and i am absolutely tired of how this phrase is treated sometimes

[nikoisme]

Btw "aros can still date/aces can still have sex" refers to "their sexuality is their own thing and they can do whatever they enjoy and feel comfortable doing", not "love and sex is so deeply ingrained into society and expectations of individuals, so i will use this phrase that refers to one's personal preference to further push the idea that one must experience romantic attraction and/or sexual attraction, because asexuality and aromanticism is still not taken seriously and treated as something to be fixed and by holding onto this belief i am further reinforcing this idea, so the sexuality of aces/aros who do date/have sex will be demeaned,, and i am continuing to push the idea of allosexuality and alloromanticism onto aces/aros who do not date/have sex" !!!!!
