ok so since a lot of positivity for aros/aces has been scarce lately here we go

  • here’s to aro/ace questioning kids who see the intracommunity lgbtq+ discourse and wonder whether they can be in safe spaces or not and don’t yet know where to look for support
  • to aces and aros who don’t know anyone else like them and worry they’re just broken after all 
  • here’s to lgbtq aros/aces who sometimes feel caught between communities (i know they exist, namely because i am one)
  • here’s to het aros/aces who know their orientation gives them privilege but need a chance to talk about aro/aceness as well
  • to aros/aces whose gender/race/disability frequently intersects with their orientation
  • to aros/aces of all orientations who are unhappy with who they are (thanks, society!), and aros/aces who are learning to accept themselves more every day

you’re not alone, and things are going to be ok, and you are completely valid. ☀

friendly reminder

  • aros aren’t heartless, and have like no personality
  • love =/= romance
  • u can platonically love someone w/o wanting to become romantically involved with someone
  • aro people can get married
  • some aro can be romance repulsed
  • if u are aro but not ace, u aren’t shallow
  • if u are aro and ace u aren’t above aros who aren’t ace
  • aromantics are fucking important
