[A tweet from Yasmin Benoit, "there are demisexual people out there who dont feel very asexual and aren't very asexual and that's cool too. The orientations overlap but only to a degree. Demisexuality also overlaps literally every other orientation. It is it's own experience.]
Just for the record, this is the tweet Yasmin Benoit made about demisexual acceptance. Regardless of if you disagree with the definition or the wording, it’s something that would warrant Talking To Her About It rather than trying to get the entire community to turn against her, yall are just racist.
There’s also a LOT more history to the current situation than just this screenshot, but the main thing worth mentioning is that one of the mods of @/fuckyeahasexual has spurred on most of the rumors and hate towards Yasmin, saying that she is exclusionary to demisexuals. From what I’ve discovered there was a pre-existing beef between Yasmin and Mod Rose that took off when Yasmin challenged her on the scheduled date of the next Ace Day? I don’t feel comfortable trying to hash out what happened with that because it mostly happened in private exchanges and relies on personal messages being screenshotted and posted to confirm anything.
#I've got more info but it's A Lot to sort through and it's late#asexuality#ace#yasmin benoit#fellas. you have no idea the mixed feelings i'm Experiencing when I thought abt tagging this ace discourse#on one hand. ace discourse that isn't just exclusionists saying we shouldn't exist?!!#on the other hand. yuck there's community infighting
