What would you like authors to remember when writing characters that are asexual and sex-favorable?
The title says it basically, but me and a friend are writing a book and the main character is asexual and sex-favorable. (I'm asexual but sex-repulsed btw). The character has a boyfriend and a queer-platonic partner.
Thank you!

Ace Ring Advice? I want to buy a ring to express my asexuality. However I'm unsure of which to buy. Which one do you think is most appropriate? Any other options are recommendations are welcome!

Woman asking adoptees their opinions on her adopting due to being a sex-repulsed asexual. I’m so tired of this gross treatment.

This really is The Best Arrowverse Show™.
So it turns out my mom outed me to my dad behind my back... (CW minor acephobia)
Background: I (21) am out to my younger sister and my mom but not to my dad. My sister and I go to different colleges away from home so my family connect and chat mainly through video calls.
When I came out to my mom I only said that I don't want to tell my dad because he already knows I won't date/have sex/get married any time soon (so I could avoid his acephobia, but I didn't tell my mom this part).
But it turns out she interpreted it as she could choose to tell him and I wouldn't mind. So he has known for a long time... It wasn't until I told my sister not to share ace tik tok to the family chat because I wasn't out to dad yet that she told me they talked about my identity a few weeks earlier, after she checked with mom that I was fine letting him know. (I wasn't in the video call that day because of school work.) And later my mom told me that she told him way earlier.
Turns out he didn't reacted all that well and basically implied that I will grow out of it. Honestly I am not surpirsed by his reaction. But my mom said that she thought it wasn't that bad, which stings a bit.
Anyway I'm not even that angry. I just thought it was funny. My sister is the angriest right now because my mom misinterpreted my intention and she felt she "betrayed" me by extension. This whole thing is just ridiculous because it's based on so many levels of misunderstanding and miscommunication and creates so much drama.
I'm not really here to ask for advice or anything. Just wanted to find an anonymous spot to vent haha. Thanks for reading?

Gay-passing asexual
Anyone else "gay-passing", rather than "straight-passing"?
I happen to have "the gay voice", as well as a slight build and an expressive sense of fashion, and everybody assumes that I'm gay. People will literally tell me that I'm gay, like they're informing me of it.
"RevolutionaryDong, you're gay..." Am I? Did I say that?
It's always baffled me, in that it's not simply ignorant people thinking that I act a bit fruity, but also perfectly progressive people that are apparently more than happy to assume my sexuality based on stereotype.
Is it a little aphobic, assuming that I must be allosexual when I've made no claims to it and never talk about dating anyone? Or is it a little homophobic, assuming that I must be gay because I'm kind of effeminate?
I'm not mad, of course: I've embraced it. I like to consider myself a non-practicing homosexual. I'm just in it for the holidays.

Please don’t feed them. They tend to get feisty when garlic bread is in the vicinity.
