If I allow myself to be totally honest when it comes to queer representation I only really care about or prioritise aroace/non-SAM ace* representation.

And there is a bit of guilt and insecurity I feel about that because I still haven't shaken off the internalised aphobia of "aroace is diet-queer a fake sexuality and allo queers are more real and more important so you should care about them more than yourself".

Which I know is a wild thought to have, because nobody gives a shit if lesbians/bi women prioritise sapphic stuff, nobody will care that gay/bi men focus on mlm representation. But I can't help but feel that I shouldn't be allowed to focus on my orientation.

#asexual #asexuality #aroace #non sam ace #every time i see any general pride/queer/lgbtq lists or events and no aroace shit to be seen I lose interest and dont care anymore #I'M TIRED BOSS #just to cover my bases; i primarly seek out aroace things that doesnt mean i dont also engage with allo queer things #*and certain kinds of trans rep specifically transmasc/transneutral NBs and trans men(if non-femme NB stuff is scarce which it is lol)#so yeah if a queer thing is all cis too fvck outta here w/ that shit #but I feel my wanting to prioritise trans rep n shit as a trans person is more understandable/acceptable than the aroace shit #just a massive side eye to all those “totally queernormative settings” where everyone is cis and allo lmao dont pmo
