"Sorry that as a youth I didn't know I was asexual, because most people don't even admit it exists. Sorry that there's almost zero education about a real spectrum. Sorry I had to spend a large part of my formative years either judging others for their sexual attraction or else giving in and condemning myself for not feeling it. Sorry for existing."

Hey now. Judging people for having sex drives isn't cool, and is worth apologizing for, no matter what kind of personal stress or self-condemnation was going on underneath. (If indeed there was any; this OP didn't mention having it.)

they did say mostly privately, and it's not like non-ace people don't ever judge people's massive crushes :)

Well, yeah. Which is why I didn't say "it's worth apologizing for...only if you're asexual, and otherwise it's totally A+ cool behavior."

How bout you guys all stop acting like it's normal to mock boyband crushes and then I'll think it's not hypocrits, huh?

I'm fed up with ace people being held to higher standards where even in private we're supposed to approve of "regular" people's sexual standards and think they are A+ #1 awesome!!!!!!!!

I bet you all are REAL apologetic for all your hateful little judgemental pets and have even less excuse than not UNDERSTANDING it.

Who's "acting like it's normal to mock boyband crushes"? It's totally normal and mainstream for people to have crushes on boy bands. Mocking that usually has more than a whiff of misogyny, and gets criticized accordingly.

If other people have different sexual standards from you, and those standards make them happy and fulfilled and aren't hurting anyone, then why would you disapprove? You don't have to take them up yourself, just be a chill and nonjudgmental human being who appreciates that it takes all kinds.

No idea wtf "hateful little judgmental pets" even means, here.

You know that there have always been options between "be a judgemental twat" and "self hating ace" right? So sorry that doesn't fit into your oppressed snowflake narrative.

a privately judgmental "twat" (according to you) owes no one an apology. sorry that seems snowflakey to you :)

(Anonymous) 2016-07-24 02:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, judgemental assholes of all stripes who "mostly" keep it to themselves are still assholes, so your very special rant about how asshole behaviour is justified if you're ace totally makes you a snowflake ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(Anonymous) 2016-07-24 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Fuck yourself.

(Anonymous) 2016-07-24 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Like you've never mocked people's crushes. I bet you haven't even done it privately, you troll. Shit.

You guys just think asexuals are supposed to be better than "regular" people or you get to judge them.

Fuck yourselfl

Oh, take your massive self-pity and fuck off.

(Anonymous) 2016-07-24 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
after you! :)

As a borderline asexual who had been in the OP's shoes I don't think being unaware of their sexuality give them a pass for judging people, being a dick with a reason doesn't make you not a dick. Even if they only did it in secret it's good to realize your own flawed thinkings and better yourself. Also the asexual community (at least online) has a lot of judegemental assholes so OP would do well to stay away from that reputation.

(Anonymous) 2016-07-24 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Being asexual means you have no other choice but to judge people for their sexual attraction? Nah.

(Anonymous) 2016-07-24 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
It means you get fucking fed up with the default being the only "appropriate" thing and yes, sometimes people cope by judging. It might not be IDEAL but I'm fed up with the mealy-mouth attitude that "allows" asexuals to exist as long as they fucking cheerlead for "normal" people. Fuck that!
