Merely for saying I'm asexual and thus not interested in a sexual relationship, I've had people (probably 98% of whom were men) tell me:

-They hope I get raped
-I'm just a bitch with daddy issues
-I'm probably too ugly to get anyone to fuck me
-I was probably raped in the past and I repressed it
-I'm a frigid bitch
-I'm fucked in the head
-I'll be sorry when I'm old and miserable and nobody wants me
-I'm a stuck-up cunt who thinks she's too good for everyone
-Go back to tumblr you pathetic fucking attention whore

And in some ways, the worst of all of them:

-You just think you're asexual.

Now I don't think that the awful way many people treat asexuals justifies ace people generalizing about and being vitriolic towards sexual people. It doesn't. But lets not act like this is a one way street. And also, lets not presume that these ace people you're referring to, who seem to hate sexual people, are more than a small fraction of all the ace people out there. A lot of ace people don't even participate in any sort of ace community, whether online or in RL.

cool

that's misogyny, not "acephobia" hth

Point being, let's not with the whole "ace people are such assholes to sexual people for no reason whatsoever." It takes a really self-centered jackass to not realize that many ace people have been treated like shit by more sexual people than they can count, and that's why they're defensive to the degree where it comes out as anger.

Again, that doesn't mean it's okay to go around spewing anger at an entire, huge chunk of the population. But if you can't at least understand where those angry ace people are coming from, then I'm thinking you're at least as much the problem as they are.

Don't deny that acephobia exists. A lot of what anon mentions does fall under misogyny, but... there are intersections?? A lot of it is acephobia as well.

Um, not really, because people say the same shit to asexual males.
