Aro Pride - Tumblr Posts

HA! TAKE THAT PEOPLE WHO SAY I HAVENT MET THE RIGHT PERSON!! WE ALREADY RULE THE WORLD!!!

WAIT GUYS

WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT

AROMANTICISM IS THE MOST PREVELANT QUEER IDENTITY

THINK ABOUT IT

ALL BACTERIA, ARCHEA AND OTHER SINGLE CELLED ORGANISMS ARE AROACE

BUT MOST ANIMALS, PLANTS AND FUNGI, AND OTHER EUKARYOTES REPRODUCE SEXUALLY BUT DO NOT PARTNER UP FOR LIFE

THEREBY BEING AROALLO

AND IN COMBIONATION WITH THE AROACE PROKARYOTES

AROMANTICISM IS THE MOST PREVELANT QUEER IDENTITY BECAUSE IT IS THE DEFAULT THAT 99.9% OF LIFEFORMS ARE

EDIT: ALSO BECAUSE MOST OF THE TIME THE MAJORITY OF CELLS IN THE HUMAN BODY ARE MICROBES

AND BECAUSE THEY ARE AROACE

EVERYONE IS LIKE HALF ARO BY CELL COUNT

They better have flags for straight people.

This year, I went to two local pride events. It was great, but in both events I noticed something: there was almost no aromantic representation. There were plenty of flags for sale, as well as colored merch and stickers, encompassing a wide range of identities. Not ONE of them was aromantic. The flag banners they'd put up, with a bunch of different LGBTQ+ flags? No aromantic. However, there was an asexual flag as well as other items for sale, which was part of the reason I was surprised by the lack of aromantic flags and other merchandise.

I'm not saying the asexual representation is bad; it's great! It's the lack of representation for aromanticism that is problematic. I'm aroace. I was pissed as HELL because I felt that half of me was underrepresented. I can't imagine how excluded allosexual arospec folk would have felt to know that they had all but been completely erased. The A in LGBTQIA doesn't just stand for asexual; it's for aromantic and agender (which I also noted had no representation) too.

The only mention of aromanticism at all in both pride events was a brief, easy to overlook touch on it at a few stalls. Pride is meant to be inclusive to all. To ALL. Not ALLOROMANTICS ONLY. ALL.

I'm aromantic. I'm not just ace. It took me years to figure out that I was also aromantic, but it doesn't actually make a difference. If I can only find my asexuality shown at pride events then things need to change.

I am aromantic. I'd like for that part of me to be represented. I DEMAND that part of me to be represented.

No one is mad. We couldn't care less what you identify as. You think about yourself too much and think you are in some way important or special. You're not.

Arophobia genuinely baffles me

I'm not being in a relationship. I'm not doing anything. I'm just sitting at home drinking tea watching Battle for Dream Island maybe doing a puzzle. What are you so mad about who am I hurting I'm literally just here

Here's your friendly remider that aces and aros are real, valid and are queer enough to be part of the community. If you think other wise you're free to get off my page. (I will not fight anyone on this. I'll block anyone that disagrees, no questions asked.)

Having both of my protagonists for my webcomic be aromantic can be a little daunting sometimes, because I've met so many people online that just completely disregard Aro and/or Ace rep in favour of shipping something.

Alloromantic folks are totally valid obviously, don't get me wrong, but like dude just let us Aromantics have SOMETHING.

It's honestly one of my biggest pet peeves with the internet.

Reblogging this to add that I don't mind people shipping characters and shit, but like, when there are clear boundaries made- idk man have some deceny

I don't even LIKE hazbin or helluva, but i think that the fandom is a GREAT example of how piss-poor shippers act when a character is specifically stated to be aromantic and/or asexual. Alastor was specifically stated to be Aroace, but so many shippers just disregard it.

The complete disregard for Aromantic and Asexual folks is really disheartening, especially for aspec/arospec folks who want to put our own media out there.

Anyway, reblog this telling me about an aspec/arospec character or OC you really like. Can be from any media, I'm obviously not going to judge

AroAce mermaid! — one of my favourite pieces!

Commissions are open! [so new at this it’s like trying to do a wheelie on ice — money goes towards a new wheelchair and rent]

Update of this shit storm:

I’ve decided to end thing with my qpp, I’m uncomfortable with them waiting out for a chance my feelings will change

and also the fact that they can’t move when they’re hoping I’ll change

So yay! Tbh I think this whole experience has showed me that I’m much more aromantic then I previously thought

Because the stress of being in a relationship, even a qpr has been weighing on me significantly so yeah, I’ll keep y’all updated on this fucking mess

Just found out my qpp has been waiting to see if I’d eventually develop feelings for them.

Our entire qpr. They’ve been holding out on a chance that I’d change.

It’s not on them at all. I just feel like a cunt that lead them on now fuckkkkk

I don’t know what to do

Small drawing i made since I recently came out as aroace to my mom

Day 4's pride merc is...

Aromantic snipes!

Got my aro and ace rings!

:33 < if someone whos aroace tells you they like someone and asks you to call them a (insert any form of teritary attraction) do it. youdont get to pick the name you call them. youdont get to call them a "crush". that isnt your choice. just tell me youre aphobic/see forms of teritary attraction as "lesser" or "not real" without telling me

:33 < aro and ace couple that gget 2 cars one that says "ace" on the license plate and 1 that says "aro" at the license plate

Happy Pride!
