I find it funny how @star-wars-discousre is saying there should be no oppressors in the regime, yet is doing the very thing heteronormative society has done before.

1. Asexual has founded basis in epigenetics and sexual attraction (in this case lacking)

2. The very notion goes against heterosexuality.

3. An acronym can change over time and adapt, or is otherwise archaic and doomed to modernity.

This is why I like SaGE more-so. It allows room to grow and allies to support.

Also, asexuals have a high rate of being victims of sexual abuse, most notably “corrective” rape in which ace people are sexually assaulted as a means to “fix” us.

LMAO literally this shit abt “heterosensual” and “heteroaesthetic” or whatever is somethin the LGBTA+ community has perpetuated itself 

youve prescribed this HORRIBLE STIGMA to being specifically attracted - sexually or romantically - to the opposite gender, which has pushed the asexuals and aromantics out of spaces that THEY SHOULD FEEL SAFE IN 

there is a fucking reason there is an A in the acronym and it isn’t for allies - months ago, we were still fighting for that simple truth. today? we’re forcing asexuals and aromantics out of safe spaces because they have “straight privilege” 

the reason these new terms have been invented is because we’re excluding people who should inherently be in these spaces because they’re in the FUCKING ACRONYM, and they feel they have to distance themselves from the “STRAIGHTS” because we’ve put such a goddamn negative stigma to that

asexuals and aromantics do not experience the same sort of oppression as gay people, bi people, pan people, and so on. but, here’s something to think about too:

bi people and gay people do not experience the same form of oppression

bi people and trans people do not experience the same form of oppression.

just because ace and aro people don’t experience the GAY OPPRESSION, they experience an oppression unique to them - and you can’t even say that the oppression an asexual person experiences is the same to an aromantic persons. 

they are dehumanized, they are attacked, they are OPPRESSED. 

and it is fucking disgusting that we have contributed to this oppression when we’re all supposed to be on the same side. 

The LGBTA community in general is toxic to anyone who isn’t lesbian, gay or a trans in a opposite gender relationship.

the LGBT community only cares about the L and the G but only if they are hetero because according to them, a trans person in a same sex relationship has “straight privilages” because people within the community tend to look at their relationships before their gender. Seriously, if you exclude anything other than the L and the G then fuck you because you’re just as toxic as the all the other shitty people.

fuck you guys honestly

#there is no a#and your homophobia is showing

Actually there is an A. It stands for asexual. 

nah bro

#just admit you hate gay people :0)

I don’t hate gay people. I never said I do. I hate are people excluding the other members of the LGBTA community. The people who claim that bi people need to choose or that ace people don’t exist. I hate bigots.

the “ace experience” is different than the “gay/bi experience” there arent bible bumpers that wish you were dead

No, there’s just the constant belittling because we don’t care for sex as well as the lack of representation in media. Even lesbians and gay people have a little bit of representation but if there’s an asexual, the fandom tends to erase their ace identity. Oh, and corrective rape is something that exists. Asexuals have a high chance of being a victim of sexual violence. Unfortunately we don’t have a place where we can feel welcome because the community that’s supposed to welcome us in tend to forget we even exist or claim that just by existing we are somehow oppressing them.

If its “okay” and “not sexist” for a woman who was raped and/or abused by a man to hate/fear all men, does the same logic apply to men who were raped and/or abused by women? Are they allowed to hate/fear all women because of the trauma they suffered or is that different?

Just curious.

No. When a woman forces unwanted sex unto a man, she is merely expressing retaliation against men for enforcing rape culture. When a man rapes a woman, he is exercising his power and privilege towards the opposite sex. Rape is something women have to deal with for their entire lives. Men have nothing to fear because they are the ones who set up this culture. 

^In case anyone ever asks again why I’m not a feminist

^In case anyone ever asks again why I need feminism. 

You need feminism because people believe men and boys can be raped by females? Yeah… ok then kiddo. How old are you again, 14?

“Are they allowed to hate/fear all women because of the trauma they suffered or is that different?” The ballsy person standing against stupid femnazis says.

“No. When a woman forces unwanted sex unto a man, she is merely expressing retaliation against men for enforcing rape culture.”

I…what…?

So, you’re saying, that a woman COULDN’T POSSIBLY rape a man just because she might be unstable or want something or just be violent or want a dominance rush or whatever. Ya know. The same motivations male rapists have? No. It’s all the men’s fault. THAT doesn’t sound familiar or anything. Hell, lookit that rape culture. The men were practically asking for it right?

“Rape is something women have to deal with for their entire lives. Men have nothing to fear because they are the ones who set up this culture.”

I…what…?!

Okay but look. Saying men have nothing to fear of rape is bullshit. Rape, whether you are male or female, IS STILL FUCKING RAPE! It’s still an experience that is JUST AS TRAUMATIC FOR A MAN AS IT IS A WOMAN. And most of the time, men are raped JUST AS OFTEN as women, they just don’t report it because one, they feel no one would believe them, and two, they feel like they’d be dehumanized as a man for not wanting sex. But no they have nothing to fear. They can’t hate women for it the way women can hate men for it. It’s not like the very rape culture they’re apparently so supportive of is stabbing them in the back in ways I just mentioned when sexual molestation of men DOES happen. NOOO. Then the femnazis would seem hypocritical or something.

Oh my god. This is why I’m not a feminist. It began as something about making men and women equals and has been bastardized to THIS! Rape and rape culture, on any level, is TERRIBLE. It’s one of the worst things is society and should NEVER BE taken lightly. It’s not okay. And the fact that we, as men or women, have to live in a society with rape culture is FUCKING TERRIFYING.

Look, this person basically just said that its okay for women to rape men because that’s what some men have done to women, and that by again RAPING AN UNWILLING MAN, a woman is merely giving the men a piece of their own medicine and that the man can’t be traumatized because “it’s different.”

Let me just reiterate one more time this one key point…THIS PERSON BASICALLY SAID IT IS OKAY FOR WOMEN TO RAPE MEN. What the fuck feminism?

In all seriousness you don’t see me going around like “MY UNCLE DIED OF CANCER HOW DARE YOU MENTION/JOKE BOUT IT” now do you

Like seriously everyfin on this website puts people in a bad mood.
Also on a side note, I use the word “triggered” lightly be cause I actually know what’s it to be triggered, don’t worry I’ve had my fair share.

I encountered a similar situation when someone claimed ace people aren’t oppressed so I mentioned that ace people are sometimes subjected to “corrective rape” and linked some articles about instances of it happening and tagged it as tw: rape but the person claimed that was a “low blow” and shouldn’t be counted because the person claiming aces aren’t oppressed is supposedly a rape survivor and still claims ace people are apparently horrible people.

A couple things are wrong here.
The legal definition of rape is “the commission of unlawful sexual intercourse or unlawful sexual intrusion” (http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/rape) and has nothing to do with a vagina.
Planned parenthood...

Planned parenthood had exaggerated about what was being said. What was happening was that the bill would require a transvaginal ultrasound before an abortion. (http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/05/28/planned-parenthood-lies-about-scott-walker-ultrasound-quote/)

Listen, I’m all for hating this guy because of his involvement in a bill that owuld allow rapists to sue their victim for getting an abortion (http://www.salon.com/2015/06/03/scott_walkers_deranged_new_low_force_women_to_carry_their_rapists_pregnancies_and_let_men_sue_over_abortion/) But do not spread false facts about someone. It only does you more harm than good.
