30 Day Asexuality Challenge: Day 29
Where did you first learn about asexuality?
It was mentioned in a conversation. A friend of mine was explaining to me who another person was and they mentioned that the person was asexual. I just stood there for a minute thinking to myself “It’s real? It’s not all in my head!?! I’M NOT ALONE!”

What was the worst argument you’ve had about asexuality?
Ah I haven’t really had any arguments about it. I mean, my family doesn’t know yet, so there hasn’t been anyone I could ague with. The only people that really know are my two best friends, so…

Write something or post a picture about asexuality that upsets you:
“You’re asexual, you don’t feel anything towards anyone, and when it comes to appearances, the most you think it ‘oh, well I guess he’s kind of attractive,’ and then you go on with your life. You can’t understand emotions like love.”
“It’s just a phase.”...

Ace - One who identifies as asexual (i.e. a lack of sexual attraction. This is not a choice.)
Grey-a(ce) - One who identifies under the asexual umbrella, but can feel minimal sexual attraction. (This is not a choice.)
Demisexual (Demi) - One who experiences sexual attraction only…

What is your favorite asexual pride image?
I don’t really have one. I now, what an interesting answer! But really, I haven’t seen many that I liked.

i LOVE this community!
acesecrets:
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I feel that the ace community is about the most welcoming and accepting of all the GSM groups. I’ve never seen one ace tell another that they weren’t ace enough, or that greys and demis don’t belong.
It’s funny that asexuality is so often associated with immaturity. I think the world could use more of this kind of immaturity.
I love you people!

Can't We All Just Get Along?
Why does any of this matter? Who cares if you’re heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, or anything in between? Is it really necessary to throw all of this hate around?
We’re all human beings, we all want to live our lives and be happy. So why do so many people feel the need to spread unnecessary hate?
SPREAD THE LOVE, PEOPLE!
Live and let live. If you don’t bother me, I...

What do you believe causes asexuality?
I don’t think anything really “causes” it. Is it something that can even be caused? I don’t have a clue, and I believe that if something does cause it, it wouldn’t matter anyway.

Tell us about your partner. If you’re not in a relationship, tell us about your best friends.
My best friends are pretty amazing. I love them to death, but only one of them knows about my asexuality. The other two are skeptics. I recent;y discovered that one of my best friends is against gay marriage, which shocked me. That’s the reason I haven’t told her yet; I’m afraid...

What do relationships mean to you?
God, I don’t even know. Personally, I don’t really understand the point of them, and I find them very confusing. I’m also too lazy to do some serious soul-searching to find out.

I Am Such An Idiot
So, my best friend (who doesn’t know I’m asexual) made a Tumblr account and started following me, and I just realized that in the About Me section of my profile, I state that I’m asexual.
I am such a fucking moron.

Family Comes First
I know I’m not the only one that considers my group of friends one huge and extremely dysfunctional family. My real family always says “We’ll love you no matter what” and they throw around the term “unconditional love” more than anyone should, but is that even true? Yes, I understand they love me, but they don’t even KNOW me.
My family somehow got the...

If you’re out, talk about the most accepting person you’ve come out to. If you’re not out, talk about what you would hope a coming out experience would be like.
To be honest, I only really “came out” to one of my friends; a bunch of my friends correctly assumed my asexuality so it wasn’t an issue. I don’t have to worry about “coming out” to...

What does being asexual mean to you?
I wish I could say it had this huge, important significance to me, but it doesn’t. It doesn’t really “mean” much of anything to me, mainly because it’s the way I am, so I don’t really think anything of it. After all, why should I? Why should I think of my asexuality in a different way from what other people think of their...

Do you believe there should be asexual pride? What do you imagine it would be like?
I think that there should be some sort of “asexual pride,” but I think that just getting asexuality recognized by society is much more important right now. A lot of people don’t think it exists, and many people have never even heard of it. I think things would be so much easier if society...

Have you faced oppressions because of your asexuality, whether institutional or societal?
Not particularly. Although, not many people know I’m asexual yet, so that is subject to change :’D

Tell the story of the first person you came out to.
Luckily, I have some very understanding friends, one of which I never thought in a million years that I’d ever be so close to. I was the 2nd person she came out to about being bi/possibly more interested in women than men so I knew she wouldn’t judge me. I also knew that when she interrogated me on the details of asexuality (because...

Do you identify as part of the queer community? What communities do you identify with?
The only community I really identify with is the asexual community. I don’t really know (or care) why that is, and I’m too exhausted to elaborate on the issue at the moment.

How old were you when you realized you were asexual? what made you realize it?
I never really “realized” it. As I got older I kept waiting for, as skeptics would say, “the hormones to kick in.” By the time I was fourteen I decided that maybe, just maybe, I wasn’t a “late bloomer” and it was just who I was. There was no “oh my god I think I’m...

Best Not Joke Ever
So, my grandmother is a ridiculously traditional old woman. Her personal motto is “eat for yourself, dress for everyone else” and when I told her I finally got the US Army jacket I wanted, she asked me if I wanted to be a boy. Every time she sees me and discovers I’m still single, she preaches to me that one day I’ll find a guy I like and I’ll change every aspect of...

Are you out? To whom?
Ah. Kind of, I guess. It was one of those “So you’re asexual?” things. I was quite literally talking to one of my friends, who then asked me if I was. Some of my friends correctly assumed I was, which made my life so much easier.
If only I could tell my family…oh, and my best friend :’D

I Wish
That my friends that know would stop questioning every single aspect of it every time it comes up. Yes, I understand it’s an unusual concept to grasp (believe me, I don’t even understand it very much) but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to badger me about every aspect of my asexuality.
I also wish my family would stop *implying* that I’m a lesbian. They refuse to believe...
