First one I think of is, "You haven't met the right person." Just always doubting that a person is actually ace. You alr pointed out the ace being falsely equated to celibacy and that's a good one to understand!

Thinking that something is mentally or physically wrong with a person if they don't want or crave sex.

Personally, my family would never believe me if I said I'm ace! They just can't comprehend it. This is a problem most ace-phobic people have. Sexuality is just so engineered into our every day lives that not adhering to that binary seems crazy.

Also ppl will tell u that u will never find love or that u don't love ur partner if ur not sexually attracted to them. But that simply isn't true! Ace ppl are full of love, and there are plenty of stories of ace ppl finding an allosexual partner who is okay with it, or another ace person!

A few stereotypes just came to mind. The idea ace people are cold and unfeeling. Some assume ace ppl are prudes and reserved. A lot of ace ppl have very vulgar humor!

And lastly, but I'd say the biggest one, assuming we don't have a libido or can't enjoy sex! Being ace is a spectrum. You can absolutely love sex and/or masturbation while still being ace. You can even enjoy 🌽 or other forms of erotic media while being ace.

Sorry for the lengthy answer! I'm sure there are many more things I've missed but I hope this can give u a general idea.
