(in reference to Anti-Social Personality Disorder, ASPD, which is the correct but not very well known term for both 'Psycopath' and 'Sociopath') or *Asocial*(Not liking socializing/being introverted, disliking being around people in general, etc., which is what people usually mean when they say Antisocial)? The difference between the two terms is important, and most people say Anti-Social when they actually mean Asocial. If you're skeptical, absolutely do you own research /pos, but either way you put it can be funny in the context that your comment came from.

While I didn’t end up being ace, the ace community absolutely *carried me* with complete compassion and understanding while I used the label. Y’all aros aces and aroaces are Fantastic People
“You need to really experience life and relationships” lmao experiencing life and relationships almost destroyed me and u know who welcomed me when I was sex repulsed and traumatized? FUCKIN ACE PEOPLE 💖
For those of y’all who are confused on how ace people can have sex and still be ace, let me put it to you like this. If there’s a bisexual man who’s only ever been with women, is he suddenly not bi? It’s not your actions that determine your sexual/romantic orientation, it’s how you FEEL.
Not to mention, the aroace spectrum is just that! A spectrum! Some people may be completely sex repulsed and hate anything to do with sex, while others (such as demisexual people) may need very specific conditions to be met before sex is appealing to them. Then there’s people like me whose sexual orientation fluctuates! No one is “more” ace than another
0:00 absolutely. Friendship isn’t “less” than romance. This is why I hate a phrase “just a friend” because it insinuates my friends don’t matter as much as my partner!
3:24 see this is relatable but what’s worse is that I knew the term asexual. I was just so deep in self loathing for being autistic that I assumed it was another thing ‘broken’ with me. So internalised aphobia is eternally linked with ableism for me.
3:50 and even if their identity did change (which is normal!), that doesn’t mean they aren’t actually ace. People change. All the time. Maybe one day they won’t identify as ace, but they do now, so why hurt the present just for the POSSIBILITY of the future?
Shout out to all the people in qprs (I don’t know if I’m in one) (in March someone asked if we’ve been in one for a while and I kinda shrugged and said I love them) (it’s never been mentioned since) (help)
took me 7 years to realize i’m a quadruple a battery: aromantic, asexual, agender, and autistic
i'm a quadruple a battery too!
Lolol, me too, Aromantic, Asexual, Agender, and ADHD for me /pos

+ ace ppl can also enjoy sex for reasons other than sexual attraction

You put my exact thoughts into words!
