Do not trust anyone who talks as though aces and aros inherently have privilege.

Do not trust them for a second

If you have stepped outside once within your life you’d know that aros/aces benefit from conservative movements promoting abstinence. Not to mention that aros/aces haven’t been so much as mentioned in the legislative world whereas sga people and trans people have put up with the AIDS crisis, stonewall, pulse, bathroom bills, anti-sodomy laws, etc.

omg one of them outright said it again

Aces and aros do not benefit from the promotion of abstinence by conservatives, are you god damn kidding me? Like I really want to see the explanation for that, it’s wild when ppl try to pull it with aces but I think this is the first time someone outright included aros in the bullshit. This is amazing.

And uh regarding the last part, you realize I said aces and aros, as groups, don’t “inherently” have privilege, right? That I talked about aces and aros in general? And that you’re doing it too? And that ace/aro does not mean cis+hetero?

But the first part of your response is so wild omg.

Aces and aros do not have privilege for being ace/aro holy shit this is absurd

I guess that kinda “conservative abstinence laws/education benefit aces/aros” comes from the “aces don’t have sex and aros don’t have feelings” attitude from 2009 memes that aphobes like to regurgitate every time they criticise “Ace Tumblr TM”

I’m pretty convinced at this point aphobes stick their fingers in their ears and scream lalalala loudly whenever aces and aros point out that their orientation is about who they’re attracted to, not whether or not they like sex or physical affection, which is why shit like this keeps popping up.

  13. thehollowkidvg said: Being in situation in a society where you have to cover up your orientation isn’t a privilege. That sure does sound like a victim of society. “You will never come in to harm for being ace.” Are you seriously saying this. I’m sure as hell ace/aro people have been physically harmed.
