Re: Political pet peeves

[(Anonymous)]

Hmm. I just did some searching to see if I could find the study that is referenced in the article. Pretty sure this is it here.

http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1368430212442419


It's interesting, and it's good to see at least a tiny bit of research being done on asexuality, since as that article points out, there's practically none.

I do agree though that arguing ace people are actually more oppressed is not what I would take from this study. There are so many ways to experience discrimination and comparing straight across works for some types of discrimination, but not for others. For example, asexuals appear to face much less of the overtly threatening oppression many lgbt people face, which obviously counts for a lot. But are asexuals less likely to have their physical safety threatened because people feel more positively towards them, or simply because their sexuality is inherently very low-visibility and so the people who would seek to harm them are simply unaware of them? It's hard to say. Though having read that study, that latter seems sadly likely.
