good reasons to headcanon a character as asexual:
- they may not pick up on sexual or flirtatious cues
- they don’t explicitly express strong sexual attraction to others
- because you can
- just
- because you can
bad reasons to headcanon a character as asexual:
- they’re “innocent”/“childlike”
- they’re non-human
- they lack genitals
- they’re cold and emotionless
bad reasons to deny a character possibly being asexual:
- they’ve dated someone
- they’ve had sex at least once
- seriously how hard is it to grasp that asexuality is a lack of sexual attraction, not a lack of sex drive or romantic attraction, is it really too fucking complicated to grasp this very simple definition
- they’re “too emotional”
- you personally find them too hot to want them to be asexual
also: headcanoning a character as asexual solely because you dont want them to “interfere” with your otp yikes !!!!!!
What’s even worse than the bad reasons to headcanon someone as ace is when they refuse to stop shipping a ship despite one of the people being canon ace. There’s one ship I won’t say but when they had a special to expand on the characters and one of the characters canonically does not romantically love the person they are still being shipped with. Hell, one of the tests he was doing he couldn’t get it to work until two other characters got married and it turned out the magical properties of love ended up being the catalyst for the experiment. If this character was romantically involved with the one he’s rabidly shipped with, the experiment would have been a success way sooner. Hell, he didn’t even consider that love could be a catalyst but people will actively go onto fanworks where the two characters aren’t shipped and ask why they aren’t being shipped.
