Asexuals on Tumblr

[Argonian Scum]

I've noticed in recent years nobody wants to say "I'm not sure." "I'm still figuring things out." Hell, I don't remember the last time someone said they were "bi-curious." The Q in LGBTQ used to mean Questioning, now it means Queer. I'll eat my shirt if half this thread's content doesn't stem from that.

Nowadays they'll use a label like "ace flux"

Not sure if any amount of sexual education would fix someone with a fundamental misunderstanding of human biology.

"Aceflux" makes me think of this

But seriously, they probably make this shit as they go along.

I think that's apparent by the ugly flags with mundane definitions.

At least this madness is confined to the internet.

Nobody is marching down the street with a bullhorn shouting about how much sex they don't have or how much they'd "rather eat cake."

Spoiler: Nobody

I think I figured this shit out. These are people who grew up looking at shit like gay pride events and they got jealous. All these fags out in public, obviously having a fucking blast, doing whatever the fuck they felt like and enjoying it, and they wanted their own parade. Solidarity is awesome.

Couldn't they have picked something less dumb, though?

I love how a lot of the posts from teens who talk about "coming out" as asexual end in claimed arguments with their parents.
Lets be real here: If my hypothetical child (one that I hypothetically allowed on tumblr because I am clearly a negligent parent in this reality) came to me and said "Parental Unit! I am asexual!" I'd be like "Thats nice dear". I just can't see that conversation turning into an argument as "I'm not having sex" is a pretty non offensive statement to most parents and It gives me the impression that a lot of the stories are either made up or highly dramatised for tumblr points.

Just remember to not use a condom.

I see a LOT of "acefluxes" on my tumblr mining sessions. Now I finally know what it means in actual english..."heterosexual"

Not even that, it means "sometimes I'm horny and sometimes I'm not."

So...normal?

I would imagine that if they were ever attracted to someone or something besides the opposite sex it would be the jumping point for eighteen other tumblrese adjectives in their about section.

I just realized that this would mean the "aromantic" flavor "aroflux" means "I never fall in love except for when I do."

Which like most tumblr adjectives means: nothing. Absolutely nothing. Anything to obfuscate what a dirty, dirty straight you are.

I suggest that you add a "Big Dogs" mascot to the bottom before you do that though...

Done.

So, I guess the new fad will be sex nuns.

Those nun porn aficionados will finally get their day in the sun.

I think it stems into an argument because a lot of parents--at least mothers, in particular--want to see their kids grow up, have babies, and generally be happy in their lives. A lot of asexuals tend to have other mental issues like depression (though not all) so parents may be concerned declaring asexuality is impeding in their possible happiness. Considering baby boomers are still the dominant parental force right now, they came from a time where their parents got married whether they wanted to or not and it was rather expected.

Honestly tumblr is full of indoctrinated hipster teenies who try to marginalize everything to have the same meaning. Even people at Aven hate them and even Aven can be quite edgy.

Eh, AVEN is responsible for a lot of the stupid rhetoric that get spouted by Tumblrxasexuals.

They embrace bullshit like demisexuality and aromanticism and all this nonsense about different romantic and sexual orientations.
A lot of the most vocal asexy Tumblrines (metapinicyst and swankivy come to mind) also frequent AVEN.


Honestly, the whole asexual ~community~ is a cringefest and AVEN's just as bad as Tumblr.

Because having a low sex drive means you have a sexuality that's absolutely more difficult than being gay, right?

 

[vanillin]

If you've reached the point when you're so anxious about having sex and/or dating someone just because you think there's 'something wrong' about you, you're going to have a bad time, you know.

I think most of the self-proclaimed asexuals of Tumblr are just going through a phase of thinking they're better than everyone because they're not fucking like rabbit like normies!11!!!!1!!1 or they're under peer pressure to have sex or hang out with someone they don't like, so they hide themselves behind terms like asexuality, instead of having the balls to say "yo, I don't want to have sex now, or I'm not interested" and just let it happen naturally.

It's just like high school, everyone is full of hormones and such, so they go around screwing everything that walks, and anyone who isn't doing it start to indetify as demiocupioromanticsexual to justify their actions when it's really a case of just, you know, stop focusing so much on others.

Normal but in a totally queer way that lets you claim persecution points for it.

If they talked about having absolutely no sex drive whatsoever, no as in nada, zero, nothing, then I would actually see asexuality as being legit. However they are just wanting to be special snowflakes with their labels. It is hilariously stupid.
