i've always assumed from your posts on here that you were a fairly levelheaded person. please don't tell me you actually think non-lgbt asexuals are oppressed.

No I don't, although my experience with straight-identified ace people is that few of them are eager to latch onto the LGBTQ community anyway. I have more important things to worry about than kids running around pride with ace symbols.

Anti-ace tumblr though is a bunch of ignorant meatheads taking advantage of technical flaws in tumblr's design to engage in harassment, pat each other on the back for doing so, and spread ridiculous misinformation and dumb-ass theory. Shit like, "SGA originated with AAVE." No it didn't, it's limited to 1) anti-ace tumblr and 2) Mormons. "It's only oppression if there are explicit laws against it." Yeah, grow the fuck up and read some Ida B. Wells and W. E. B. DuBois. "The LGBT community started at Stonewall to fight homophobia and transphobia...." You're about 150 years too late and for most of LGBTQ history, it was about creating safe ways to get laid.

Also there's a concerted effort to harass queer-identified people and queer-inclusive organizations into self-censorship (good luck with that). Active biphobia denial. And general stalking shittiness, and lots of stuff making tumblr a bad place for LGBTQ ace people as well.

So while that clique may be technically correct on some abstract theoretical level, in practice they're engaged in something pretty awful.

"Same-gender attraction originated with African-American vernacular English"? What does that even mean?

I think it means that the term SGA originated in AAVE, not same-gender attraction itself? IDK though, I wouldn't put it past the idiots involved in the tumblr brand of activism to claim that AAVE speakers invented homosexuality.

Rather than using "LGB" like everyone else, anti-ace tumblr pushes "SGA." It's a dog whistle they share with anti-gay ministries. So of course, they create a folk etymology that it's really derivative of same-gender loving, a phrase created by an African-American activist to discuss racism in the gay community.

Drama that could have been avoided by just using "LGB," like the rest of the world.

Similarly, if you want to debate or disagree with radical feminism, you're better off going to a library and actually reading Dworkin, Daily, and MacKinnon and avoid poking the shithole that's tumblr.
