Apart from ace and aro theory I can tell u lot don't engage with any wider theory at all because u lot sit in my reblogs and anons going 'Well EYE am asexual and I think the system that defines humanity based on sex and sexual attraction to other people that don't with rape culture rhetoric is fine actually and I think my own community members are worthless stereotypes and othering asexuals as uniquely puritan is justified even tho actual puritans are anti asexual' with a straight face and think I'm gonna stop in my tracks because you think you did something of substance.

#you can uphold compulsory sexuality whilst asexual #marginalised people can uphold systems of oppression this isn't new shit #I'm thinking bout Refusing Compulsory Sexuality when Brown said white asexuals see asexuality as property #and why non-Black aces keep assuming I don't know anything about asexuality at all despite using text they haven't even read #just 'it's a spectrum' over and over bc they don't have anything else beyond that #when you're accustomed to privilege #equality feels like oppression...#asexual community #asexual theory #asexual #asexuality #intracommunity issues #ace tings
