If you're a man, or attractive, you can't be asexual.

It just makes sense, right?

Well no, but my mother seems to believe men who are asexual are either rapists or have erectile dysfunction. No possibility of asexuality being a thing.

And an old man told me (idc if you see this), and I quote, "But I'm attracted to you, and I'm not attracted to asexuals."

KABOO, my asexuality just disappeared. Yours should too if someone is attracted to you. Just try it guys, it'll cure your years of suffering😃👍

Then both tell me they're not aphobes. Mhm, sure.

Are greysexuals accepted here?

So I read a wiki forum on greysexuals. Reading the definition of one I relate a lot to it so I was wondering if this sub Reddit is accepting of greysexual and hoping there’s more information shared about it and there’s other people who relate the same thing that I have.

There's this gay friend of mine...

I have a gay friend and I always considered myself an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community. We spoke a lot about stuff like homophobia and community-related issues. At the time I was questioning my sexuality, but nothing felt right.

Eventually I startet reading about asexuality and stuff, but I merely considered the possibility I could be ace. One day I wanted to talk about it with my friend. I thaught that he would somehow understand what I'm talking about and I, at that time, always considered aces to be part of LGBT+. So I started a conversation about it, but he just said, that that was a totally different thing and that asexuality is not really a sexuality and so on. I kinda felt invalidated by what he said. Then I asked him if he considered Asexuality as part of the LGBT+ community and he said no. He talked about how the community was just for people that are oppressed or invalidated by society and that Aces are not...like...hated enough? I was shocked, because in my head the LGBT+ community was a safe place for all people that didn't fit the norm.

I came out a few weeks later but never talked with him about it. But what he said is stuck in my head and I often feel that there is just no place for us. It really doesn't matter if we are in a special community or something, but it hurts the most to get invalidated by people who should know how it feels.

Nowadays, when somebody asks, I say that I'm bi, because it's easier and I never got hate for it. But when I say that I'm ace there is always some acephobic comment, whether the person wants to hurt me or not. I think it's kinda ironic, considering that we are "not oppressed enough" to get support.

Edit: grammatical error
