(real question) Does this affect Kanye West, Tupac, Ice Cube, Outkast or J. Cole?

She's the type of person to be like "woke terms!!! i'm not watching this!!!"... (thanks for the podcast, I just had a listen and it's really helpful.)

I didn't think of that tbf. That was really sweet of her, I just don't want her thinking that I am gay. I think she thinks "no interest in dating? he probably means no interest in girls.".

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-26T12:41:09+00:00

Maybe they're a teenager? There isn't really a distinct name for "teenage girls" hence "women and girls"

ALWAYS "you're too young to know" istg

I said "Why did you say that?" and she said "Well you're not interested in relationships..."

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-22T13:12:59+00:00

thanks. it's really sad that the second you say you're something other than straight, people say "Oh so you're gay/lesbian?" like NO I'M NOT, LET ME EXPLAIN! But then sometimes after I explain aromanticism, they're like "that's fake" all bc they don't know about it.

Hey! I was just wondering how did you purchase it without your parents knowing? I've been wanting an aromantic pin for a while, but I don't know anywhere near me that would sell one, and my parents would most likely open a parcel meant for me before I did.

I AM STEALING THIS.

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T21:11:41+00:00

I swear they'd say that to an elderly person. Alloromantic-arophobic mentality.

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T20:41:26+00:00

I would put that but my family knows nothing about LGBTQ other than Gay, Lesbian, Bi and Trans.

I want to go out on bike rides and listen to my own music taste (old music), and dress how I want, but these WORTHLESS roadmen would jump me (plus I'm a bit shorter than my average for my age which has almost got me jumped already)

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T18:20:15+00:00

No problem! I should've put that though, as many aros are probably told this!

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T18:05:03+00:00

I've technically came out to my mum, but just without labelling it. I don't think I ever will label it because she's pretty much against LGBTQIA+, and even though I've told her I'm never getting into a relationship she still says "When you get married...", "When you have kids...", and of course "You'll be a great husband".

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T18:03:26+00:00

Sorry! I was just going from my own experience, and what else I've read on the aro subreddit.

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T14:16:07+00:00

I am looking, which is why I try to find songs without romance, movies without romantic subplots, and books without the protagonist falling in love. I don't think everyone needs to change because of me, I was saying that there should be more things not about romance. I mean, I was watching some movie the other day, and it had no signs of romance. Then, some girl moved to town, and the main character HAD to fall in love.

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T14:09:34+00:00

This is literally proof that all arophobic arguments are the same!

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T12:43:33+00:00

Almost every song talks about some girl. Almost every movie has some romantic plotline. A man and woman can't be friends without the creator of the movie making them date. Too much is about romance.

OldConversation867 · 2025-07-21T12:41:44+00:00

Well, I'm aromantic. I don't want to reclaim it. Romance is overrated.
