ayrt

I didn't think you were, I've just been badly set off by a Fox News segment on asexuality and there was some huge assholes I had to deal with before that so I'm just...not really in a good place atm sorry.

Really I think the problem with mentioning those grey areas are that those grey areas are often used to try to invalidate us. Not everyone who thinks about the grey areas are, but all too often that is what they're used for.

tbh I think the 'popularity' of aces is more because it's becoming more accepted and noticed. When I first identified as ace, you had to go to AVEN or dig really deep to find even one. But now I can find articles and youtube vids about asexuality and it's kinda amazing. I found my identity through pure accident, but if things back then were like things now, I'd have had an easier time lol

Not saying people aren't, 'trending' with it (I've seen a few, tbh) but I think it's not as prominent (but maybe I'm hanging in the wrong areas).
