Yes, we are all aware the word got an absurd start. The simple fact of the matter is it now has a meaning that is differant. That happens with languages. :)

Leave people alone. Let them identify as whatever they want, if it’s not hurting anyone else. If someone wants to say ‘I’m demi-sexual’, please, tell me how the hell that hurts you.





THIS IS NOT OKAY STOP TRYING TO ERASE THIS SHIT.

Being grey-a, I get this same fucking treatement. ALL THE FUCKING TIME. And I am not going to be quiet about this. I have literally been told by a guy that asexuality didn’t exist, and that I just needed the 'right man’. Because so many other people told me this- people like this douchenozzle, who refuses to just shut the fuck up and let people alone- told me that my sexuality wasn’t real, didn’t exist, was a made up pile of BS and I was just 'inexperianced’. That I was just 'wrong’.

So I lay there, under this guy, letting him touch me and kiss me and do things to me I didn’t fucking want. But I didn’t say anything because I WAS TOO EMBARESSED. BECAUSE ASEXUALITY ISN’T REAL AND I WAS JUST BEING A PRUDE. BECAUSE I JUST NEEDED TO EXPERIANCE IT. BECAUSE EVERYONE SAID SO SO IT MUST BE RIGHT. RIGHT?!

FUCKING WRONG.

I am not lying. I am not wrong. I am not 'just inexperianced’.

I AM FUCKING IN THE ACE SPECTRUM. And you have no fucking right to try to tell people they're lying. You have no FUCKING RIGHT to try to tell someone they’re 'just trying to be special’. You have NO. FUCKING. RIGHT. to try to assume you know what other people are thinking or feeling.

I have been called so many gut-wrenchingly horrible names. I’ve had people cheat on me, nearly rape me- yes, people have kept going when I’ve said 'no’ or 'stop’. I’ve had people get furious at me FOR NOT WANTING SEX. FURIOUS. SCREAMING, NAME-CALLING, THROWING SHIT AT ME ANGRY.

SO FUCK ANYONE who tries to erase someone else’s sexuality. You go can go straight to hell.
