I thought I had made it clear that I think ace (asexual and aromantic and everyone within that spectrum) are queer and they belong in the QUILTBAG community and Pride.
If I’ve ever given the impression that they aren’t or that I’m not for inclusion, then it was a mistake.

 cishets aren’t queer. bye

So I went to your “about” and 

  • Acephobia does not exist as a system of oppression.

….sure thing buddy

aphobia isnt a form of systematic oppression. that’s literally just a fact.

ace discrimination does exist. but systematic oppression? nope!

gotta disagree with you on that one, as doctors and psychologists considered asexuality to be a mental illness until recently, and many of them still do. If you don’t consider doctors saying that your orientation is a disease to be systemic oppression then I don’t know what to tell you 

Friendly reminder that user the-ace-community is cis and perisex and thinks kicking TERFs out of LGBT+ spaces is lesbophobic and also thinks intersex people aren’t LGBT+ and don’t belong (here’s why that’s wrong). 

This is what we mean when we say cis “exclusionists” need to stop using the term “cishets” in the discourse. Cis people aren’t your oppressors, as cis people tend to you frequently side with transphobia, and overall you need to stop acting like you get to decide whether cis people are safe, you need to stop saying “cishets are invading” like cis people are your problem too.

Like the whole keysmash acronym shit (ex “LGBTKISD(@$SDLK++”) was literally invented by cishets who think there’s only straight and gay, nothing else, not even trans or intersex. It’s frequently used by TERFs and anti-sj, even truscum. Cis gays aren’t being sneaky at all about their REAL intentions when they insist on doing this same fucking thing. 

(Not that all discourse isn’t already recycled TERF/anti-sj/cishet bullshit, this is just another example of it.)

Also QUILTBAG+ has been in use since before tumblr existed and its purpose was to make the acronym more accessible iirc, and I’d primarily seen mspec and nonbinary people using it.

And U for Undecided is meant the same as Q for Questioning, it’s not something radically new and about “choosing to be LGBT+”. Also “choice” politics are shit so let’s avoid them.

Also just because it was changed recently doesn’t mean it isn’t still viewed as a disease and the fact that the change is “unless they’re ok with it then they’re asexual” doesn’t really de-pathologize it, because it’s ignoring the fact society at large tells them there’s something wrong with them. This also is hilarious to assert considering all the discoursers on this post think teaching about asexuality is bad. So how are they supposed to wind up as being okay with it if you constantly assert it’s not okay, if you refuse to give them the words and concepts that let them know it’s okay?

Also homo/queerphobia isn’t over because we have more marital rights so how does “well they fixed this one thing so acephobia isn’t a problem anymore” make any sense.

QUILTBAG? MOGAI? Queer? actual words the human tongue can make mid-conversation? absolute rubbish. we need el-gee-bee-tee-pee-en. there’s a 6 syllable minimum
