how could anyone seriously believe that this sort of a comparison is valid?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:08 am (UTC)(link)asexuals always try to draw comparisons between the oppression lgbtq people face and the 'oppression' that asexual people face, it's annoying as fuck
lesbians often like slash because of the dynamics of the pairings, because slash is about queer relationships. the comment about bisexuals having to like every gender equally is just bullshit in general and has even less in common with the doubts op outlines in their secret.
being asexual, on the other hand, means you don't have a libido. it means you're not interested in sex at all. so, okay, you can ship characters and appreciate them aesthetically, but if you're getting off to porn? you don't have 'no libido' and you're not 'not interested in sex at all'. you just aren't interested in having sex in real life. which is perfectly fine, but it doesn't mean you're asexual.
(and don't give me the AVEN definition of asexuality because their definition is a bunch of bullshit that means, basically "you can identify as whatever if it's what you need to say to make yourself feel like a special, special snowflake")

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:11 am (UTC)(link)because it means you are sexually attracted to those characters
sorry

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:15 am (UTC)(link)libido =/= getting off to characters. It means you feel horny/aroused at times. You can masturbate without thinking of something sexual you know...

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:17 am (UTC)(link)But some people don't do that project/identify thing when they enjoy pairings. There's also fans that don't get into characters at all until thinking about them in a pairing dynamic.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:18 am (UTC)(link)i'm talking about getting off to porn
shipping can be done no matter what your orientation is
getting off to porn, though? not really.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:20 am (UTC)(link)Sometimes people just get aroused. There doesn't have to be a person who is arousing you.
(frozen comment) no subject
(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 12:21 am (UTC)(link)then there are special snowflakes that have libidos but want to pretend they're different and unique from those dirty sexual people, and they adopt the term asexual to validate their special snowflake feelings.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 01:21 am (UTC)(link)You remind me of one of my lesbian friend who once argued that bisexual people didn't exist because if she could act straight she would.
... yeah I didn't get it either.
(frozen comment) no subject
(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 01:28 am (UTC)(link)In a perfect world, no one gives a shit who you have relationships with. In the real world, there is pressure to be straight, and the false assumption that if you can chose a m/f relationship, that option is more desirable.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 01:36 am (UTC)(link)Seriously who are you to tell people what they should or shouldn't feel? Every heard of asexuals who strictly masturbate because they don't get aroused by another person or don't like to be touched? Please educate yourself of GTFO my Internet.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-09 01:31 am (UTC)(link)Really? That's the only reason Lesbians like slash not because God forbid it might turn them on?
Anon, stop trying. It makes you sound ridiculous.
Besides the secret has nothing to do with oppression. It has to do with the validity of asexuality which is nobody's fucking business just as the validity of lgbt isn't.
I didn't even bother reading the rest of your post because it's so ignorant it makes my eyes water. Go hang out with some homophobes you fit in better with them.

One of my favorite ships in Glee is Kurt/Blaine, and yes, it's the thing I consume most, because there's just so much more of it than my actual favorite ship, which is Santana/Quinn, of which there seems to be a grand total of two fanworks for. I think Kurt and Blaine are cute, and Santana and Quinn are beautiful. That doesn't make me any more or less of a panromantic asexual than anybody else.
