Anonymous: In my opinion, aces are not LGBT because no one faces oppression because they're ace. The LGBT community was created to fight against the oppression of them. Aces aren't LGBT. Obvsly if ur gay/bi/trans etc ace, you're LGBT, but not bc you're ace.
That makes sense. -Mod Ita
actually that doesn’t, at all. acephobia is a thing. People DO face opression for being ace. I’m not ace myself so in order to not speak over them i’ll link you to this wonderful masterpost. Also, theasexualityblog has a list of articles on the topic here under “discrimination”.
I can confirm yes people do face discrimination for being ace. You think people understood when I came out as ace? Do you think my life wasn’t different from that of a straight person? You think I didn’t spend hours crying myself to sleep because I wasn’t like every one of my friends? You think I didn’t have to put up with people claiming asexuality was a disease? That sexual attraction was the norm and people who weren’t were broken? The countless times I’ve listened to acephobia from friends and family? You think there isn’t discrimination in the work place? You think aces aren’t scared of coming out to colleagues because of the impact it would have on their jobs and lives? It doesn’t matter whether you are a heteroromantic, homoromantic, biromantic, aromantic or any other romantic type of ace - if you are ace you will experience discrimination. Stop turning this whole thing into a competition. Stop erasing asexuality from LGBTQIA+ and MOGAI. We exist, we are discriminated against, and we have been a part of this community for a long time
