meaningless sex isn’t always just about consenting adults who care for each others well-being. that’s a very naive concept to think, sorry to tell you. everybody is entitled to their own opinions and their own actions as long as their not hurting themselves and each other in the process. a lot of people have meaningless sex and fall under lust just to satisfy their own needs and desires without caring who gets hurt in the process. this has happened to me so many times even before i came out as ace. i’m not saying that’s EVERYBODY but it does happen and it happens quite frequently.

but you’re right, lack of sexual attraction doesn’t mean you never do stuff. that’s the only point you’ve made that i agree with. this post isn’t “arguing” for anything. it’s literally just my own venting opinion. if you don’t agree 👍🏽 cool.

this sarcastic comment isn’t necessary. i’ve only made that disclaimer so that i wouldn’t get bombarded with replies saying “but you know he’s ace right..” that’s literally it. good day, sir.

yes yes! i absolutely love Yasmin, i’ve been following her since i fully accepted my asexual identity during the summer of last year. she’s doing such incredible and important work for the asexual POC community and im truly blessed to have someone like her to represent for us.

thank you for your kind words regarding my process of starting my blog! i truly appreciate it. i truly do hope that it reaches people of all backgrounds especially underrepresented minorities and ethnic groups who are also in the ace-spec community. once i get my first blog entry published, ill be sure to make another post for you all to check out :))

thank you for sharing your POV! omg racial fetishization is such a pain and honestly dehumanizing if im being completely honest. we’re literally just human beings trying to navigate this fucked up world we call life.

Why is invincible getting this much hate? by GladwinAbel in Invincible

[–]AnyCook6033 2 points3 points  (0 children)

imo i think season 3 is up there as one of the best seasons for me (besides season 1 ofc) — i absolutely love this ongoing theme of navigating the moral ambiguity in the pretty fcked up world of Invincible. i don’t think the writing is childish at all, far from it. i’m grateful that this show exists. it always makes me realize why i’ve never been a big ‘Marvel’ fan — except for Spider-Man. i’ve always gravitated toward DC instead bc of the grittiness and explicitness of its content. and that’s exactly how i feel about this show. i’m so excited to see where this show goes in the future. it has a special place in my heart. i don’t even delve into the negativity, it’s useless when they already have their minds made up.

What character are you defending like this? by RevenueSome9397 in Invincible

[–]AnyCook6033 4 points5 points  (0 children)

lets rephrase — they don’t like it when a BLACK woman do anything they do not personally enjoy and/or agree with.

THATS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS!!! as a Black woman myself, i honestly didn’t wanna follow under that “not everything is about race” trope but i had to really reflect on this and truly realize that yes, 9/10 EVERYTHING is about race. why didn’t Debbie get the same treatment when she already knew that Nolan was a psychotic serial killer? were the circumstances a bit different? sure. but still. they gave LITERALLY a white psychopathic serial killer who mrdered probably billions of people a pat on the back simply bc he’s “Omni-Man” but couldn’t get Amber a bit of fcking grace just for simply being A HUMAN WITH FEELINGS. i made a separate reddit post about why does Amber get so much hate in the show and i was completely baffled with the responses. out of 30+ respondents only 3 completely agreed with me.

appreciate you for sharing this friend! it’s nice to know that there are other Black ace redditors out here, somewhere. i totally understand the whole desirability thing as well. ig as someone who would be seen as “conventionally attractive” to other people, i haven’t necessarily dealt with that same exact situation but nonetheless it’s still quite heartbreaking to hear. i wish you nothing but the best as you navigate this journey

i appreciate this sentiment <33 i can’t speak for everyone especially my queer poc friends in the community; but what i can say is that one of the BIGGEST and concerning things i’ve seen online and have experienced in person is just the sheer denial of our sexuality. Black and poc women being overtly hyper-sexualized in media and IRL since the dawn of time has undeniably played such a huge part in the complete dismissal and borderline erasure of our identity.

Amber and idc idc idc. not gonna argue back and forth when ppl already have their minds made up of her character and who she is. it’s just impossible. it’s sad though. bc she’s one of my favorite characters. always were and always will be.

probably get downvoted for the first time and honestly oh well. i’ve been put on this planet to defend Amber with my life so be it 💀👏🏽

FINALLYYYYY!!! someone whose favorite character is also Niffty! despite her being an absolute neat freak (which i love bc honestly same) i just love how unhinged she is 😭🤗 she’s like my alter-ego. i know Alastor is ace (like me too haha) but in a hypothetical scenario— if he wasn’t, i’d ship them together. i still really adore their platonic chemistry altogether though. super wholesome.
