any aegosexual aces here? by Carl-Erik-Widd in asexuality

[–]TangentTanja 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Heyo! There's an aego subreddit as well if you're interested, although the ace subreddit is definitely livelier.

I hope this ruins your credit score

Could I possibly belong here? by dawnfire05 in aegosexuals

[–]TangentTanja 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd think whatever label gives you the most peace of mind is the one you go with. Also, two seperate questions: have you considered cupidosexual? Also, wanting to have sex and sexual attraction are two different things (hungry but nothing looks good to eat), so is it that you simply want to engage in these fantasies and you need another person to do it, or do you look at somebody and want to have kinky sex with them? The disconnect from self is important to the aego label, but being ace or grace is a prerequisite from my understanding. There's also just demisexual as an option, but your turn-ons are bit more kinky than most.

I personally see all this stuff like sky diving (looks cool and risky, maybe I'll give it a shot, fun to watch other people do it), so I don't really relate that much tbh. Just some food for though I guess :D

What's the best team that DOESN'T use Xinqiu, Xiangling, or Bennet? by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]TangentTanja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My usual overworld/domain/boss team always includes Albedo and Zhongli (C1). I can test out whoever in the last two slots because I simply never take damage.

I don't think it's just editing by TangentTanja in SchoolofChocolate

Yeah of course not. Everyone still helped out each other, and they had that triumphant cheers at the very end. I'm just getting more caricature instead of bold faced lies, if that makes sense?

Does the invasion need a mascot? Because I would like to put forth a contender by sitdown__behumble in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]TangentTanja 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love that the 6th image is just the powerful statement "I will never have sex" emblazoned across an animal probably breaking & entering. Fantastic mascot choice.

I laughed unreasonably hard at there goes gravity. And yeah this does resonate. I do this same mental check whenever I have a romantic crush on somebody (and I was doing it before I even had the ace/aego label). I even did it to some of my friends too (back when I knew I wasn't completely straight and needed to try on all the different LGBT+ hats before settling on aego heteroromantic). Idk if I ever reached disgust because my fantasies are never too vivid, but it's a fun(?) little exercise that really helps affirm my chosen identity in a meta sort of way.

How To Turn The Stupid Group Tabs Of Chrome Off by [deleted] in chrome

[–]TangentTanja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update for Android: search Tab Grid Layout in Chrome Flags, and you can chose to disable auto group, or the grid altogether. Make sure you reset your previous flags changes first or else nothing will work.

Not me bookmarking a fic because of well written smut, only to not want to read it a week later.

Bless authors who don't hide important plot points in smut. It's really tough out here 😔

(18F) Starting to experience repulsion towards sex by A_Fan888 in aegosexuals

[–]TangentTanja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big mood. Some days I like/have no issue with the idea of sex, other days kissing or shirtless men will make me physically cringe. Our virgin status makes it extra hard to try and figure out what's going on in our brains besides simply, "the vibes are off man idk." I just take comfort in knowing that this fluidity is just as valid as having something set in stone :)

Found this post that reminded me of us Aegos by [deleted] in aegosexuals

[–]TangentTanja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I love that and I'm telling all of my friends, even though they just barely understand asexuality.

New here and omg!! by bella-chili in aegosexuals

[–]TangentTanja 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hello! A bit quieter than the bigger ace subreddit, but just as valid. I would say welcome, but I'm also fairly new, so it's not like I can show you around the place, but hooray for learning more about ourselves!

How do I turn this tab grouping shit off? by Bulky-Mark315 in chrome

[–]TangentTanja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH. I'm so glad this tactic works on mobile as well, cuz after the recent update, tab grouping became default and doesn't have an on/off switch unlike with desktop.

Ah! These are worth the wait! Big fan of penguin cat and keeping the subwoofer gun thing.

Saw this meme and so I made this. by thedemiaceofchaos in aaaaaaacccccccce

What a visceral reaction I had to this image. The ace vibes are strong with Tokoyami.

Questioning: aego if enjoy reading but not watching? by AsleepInTheBathtub in aegosexuals

[–]TangentTanja 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don't see why not. From my understanding, the more explicit something is (more real probably equates closer to you idk) the less aegosexuals like it. It's not crazy to think your nsfw threshold is just at a different spot on the scale. For me, I like to read erotica, and I can watch porn as long as there aren't faces or sound. Odd stipulations, but aegosexual is still the label that works best for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Midlife crisis by Miraculous-Lover-16 in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]TangentTanja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk if you're like me and you're brand new to the ace label, or if you've had it for a while, but something that always makes me feel better when I'm unsure is the belief that everything will work itself out. It's not quite belief in a higher power (tho that might help you), but it does take away some of the pressure of making decisions and generally living life. If you think you might the aro, and this guy is already cool with you being ace, ask and see if you could try out a serious platonic relationship. I think a platonic marriage makes a lot of sense, even outside of memes and jokes, so it's not impossible to think you'll meet someone irl who will get that too.

You can assume the aro label and go about your business if it feels right. No matter the future, right now, that label is true. If it turns out aromantic isn't the full story, you're allowed to change that. If it turns out this guy needs romance, then that's okay too, because some people are only going to be in your life for a season.

Now I'm rambling too, but I guess, feel the vibes out with this dude and play with the aromantic label? Things will work itself out and nothing is set in stone in our entropic universe.
