Hmm maybe if the LGBT community wasn’t so sexualized, asexuals would feel more comfortable with aligning themselves with the community.

Maybe if the only LGBT spaces weren’t bars and clubs you’d have more asexual people participating in the community.

Maybe if people, hetero or otherwise, stopped making the LGBT community so sexualized, you wouldn’t get assholes that think “asexuality isn’t part of the LGBT community”.

MAYBE I’m getting fucking sick of asexual people getting excluded from the LGBT community because they’re not “gay enough”

Yes, I’m afraid it’s true. /: 

I wish I could fight for equality with them, instead of next to them. I wish there was an S for “Straight” in the acronym. The acronym means being proud for your sexuality after all, doesn’t it? Hm…

Well, I still have my straight pride! Even if those of the LGBT community do not want my identity in their acronym, I can still be a proud ally and heterosexual! :)

My personal favorite LGBT memes:

• “Harold, they’re lesbians”
  
• “[Anything completely irrelevant to the LGBT community but happens to be enjoyed by many LGBT people] is gay culture”
• “I’m not heterophobic I have a straight friend”
• Acting like Macklemore is the savior of the LGBT community
• Insisting the Babadook is gay
  
• Posts that exaggerate how straight people write gay people (But let’s be real is it really exaggerating?)
• “6 months on HRT” [Picture of something unrelated] “vs 4 years on HRT” [Picture of something vaguely similar but drastically different]
  
• “There are only two genders” [Two pictures that are completely unrelated to gender]
  
• “LGBT stands for:” [One or all the letters are changed to completely irrelevant things. Notably if one letter is changed it’s usually the T, or even the B]. (Example: “LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, uhh… Transformers…”)
  
• Using football as a way to reference straight people without outright saying it, as if you’re too hesitant to say “straight/heterosexual” out loud

Honestly all of them are good but I can’t be here all day

I look forward to the day when the lgbt community is embarrassed about their history of the way asexual and aromantic people were treated. When they look back and think “man that was really fucked up what some people in our community did.”

Because they fucking should be embarrassed. There are people of the lgbt community who are reenacting the bigoted oppression they claim to hate and fight against. They don’t like us because we’re different. They’re angry at us because they don’t believe we’re treated badly by the wider community.

They act like people haven’t been bullied, ignored, laughed at, or fucking sexually assaulted because they are asexual.

What’s worse, they’re angry at us because they don’t think we’ve experienced that. I hope one day they realise how many types of fucked up that is.

I’m done. I’m not taking this shit anymore. I’ve tried being polite about it. I’ve tried being reasonable and level-headed. I’m fucking beyond that now. Take a fucking look at yourself, at how you’re treating us, and consider the fact that you just might be an asshole.
