Can we get a crumb of positivity please???

i’m so tired of seeing majority hate on here. legit, almost every post on this subreddit is self hate or trauma stories. i rarely ever see anyone being happy about being ace or aro.

i do appreciate the few posts that i see celebrating asexuality, but i have to admit it is the minority of posts.

i came here looking to celebrate asexuality with other ace people, to meet other asexual people, because i’m the only ace person i know personally. i’m starting to feel like none of y’all are here for those same reasons.

it’s like an echo chamber of people saying they hate themselves for being ace, or they hate their experiences with relationships (platonic or otherwise). it feels like a spiral of seeing hate and feeling hate.

don’t we get enough of that from outside our community?????

I genuinely get a feeling of dread any time i get a notification from this subreddit. i don’t like that! i didn’t come here to feel that. i want to come here and be happy about being ace with other people who are happy to be ace, but it makes it really hard when everything i see here is so much negativity and hate.

and tbh it’s not just this ace subreddit. i’m seeing it in All Of Them.

i don’t see this kind of stuff in other lgbtq+ spaces.

not here to say you can’t vent about shitty things you’re feeling or shitty things that have happened to you, but when the only thing i ever see IS vent, maybe try focusing on parts of our asexuality that isn’t negative all the time???? please????

it’s making me not want to be a part of this community which hurts so bad because like. where else am i supposed to go????

Is it "okay" to use rainbow flags?

Long story short, I got falsely outed as gay today which wasn't a situation I was exactly prepared for. So I have a lot of pins on my bag and one of them is a rainbow, another one an ace flag. For once I just rly like it it looks cute. Then I'm asexual, but heteroromantic myself. I also had this pin before I was able to get the ace flag one and it felt like a way to represent "somehow on the spectrum of something" plus being an ally (tho it's not an ally flag just a litral rainbow). But also, rainbows, aside from being a flag, are also still rainbows.
Now turns out that someone I know has assumed that I'm gay, partially because of it 😅 Which idk how to feel about. (There was also smth I said that has apparently been understood wrong)
Do you identify with rainbow flags? Should I remove it? Is this offensive to lgbtq people? Does the rainbow include asexuality? I'm confused and kind of ashamed I've apparently sent wrong signals here

Ace Journey?

was curious to anyone's stories about their asexuality changing in different ways over time!

for a long time i was a sex-repulsed almost "100%" asexual if you will, but over time being with my girlfriend she's made me very comfortable. i feel like over the years we've been dating i've slowly been thinking more about physical stuff, and had a hard time coming to terms with the fact i might not be "fully" ace. she's been nothing but supportive and ive felt so comfortable and happy ever since i had a good talk with her about it :) just was happy about that recently and wanted to hear others stories if you have one!

As an asexual woman I feel like an empty promise

Here's the thing, not only am I asexual but also sex repulsed, so sex (every kind of it) is just off the table for me entirely. I am also a girl with chest disphoria and I often wish I didn't have boobs or at least much smaller... It explains a lot of feelings from my last relationship and honestly, fact is I will not be comfortable being naked around anyone. And the longer I live, the more I observe that men are just literally programmed to love the exact things I hate about myself. It makes me feel like an empty promise, like a fraud, like a fake woman. Like noone is gonna want me once they learn about my boundaries. It just feels like looking for a relationship is running into big trouble no matter what. I'm not aromantic and I've been wanting a partner for so f*ing long 😓 I'm so tired of trying. And I get grossed out by men worshipping women for their bodies and the parts about it that I hate most on myself. And the idea that this is what they'd see in me too: Everything I don't wanna be.

(Yes I know ace men exist but we all also know that 99% of the men I actually meet irl are in fact looking for sex and boobies! And yes I also know that there's more to a relationship and that I don't owe anyone anything. It's just not that easy irl)
