Ace/Aro discourse makes me so uncomfortable because like, it’s just the same bullshit that got thrown at me as a bi woman but with a different paint job.
“How can you be sure you’re bi ace/aro if you haven’t experimented?”
“We support bi ace/aro people, buuut only if they’re a very specific type of bi ace/aro.”
“Sure, bi ace/aro people are valid, they just don’t belong in the LGBT+ community”
“But the issue is bi ace/aro people are taking up resources from real LGBT+ people!”
“It’s just a phase!”
“Look, bi ace/aro people aren’t really marginalized. Any issues they face are just misdirected homo/transphobia.”
“BiTrans Ace/Aro people are just our oppressors trying to invade our spaces!”
You aren’t that slick, fuck off into the slime pit that is biphobes, terfs, and other assholes.
I’d like to add:
“Okay but everyoneis a little bitbi ace/aro – that description literally applies to all of us!” (said especially about demi people)
“People only think and say they’re bi ace/aro if they have internalized homophobia…”
“It’s just a placeholder identity!”
“Being bi ace/aro doesn’t exist, everyone picks a side eventually!”
Griffin: It's [Edward's] turn. Hmm, what does he do...Oh my God! I know what he does! *claps happily* This is so- I'm so DELIGHTED by all of these things I didn't even think about! For instance, Edward is going to make a strength check to rip off one of your fucking arms.
