#biromantic asexual – @larphis on Tumblr

Point 100 of being a biromantic-asexual that sometimes sucks:

I like to simp so hard for certain people that sometimes I like to use terms or expressions like „smash“

What people don‘t understand about that is, however, that by „smash“

I do not mean „I want to have sex with that person“

I mean „I want to wrap that person in a blanket, cook them a cup of tea and talk about our feelings and afterwards take a long walk on the beach while we are being touched by nothing but the moonlight on our faces and the overwhelming joy in our hearts“,

but since that is too long and too strong of a feeling to actually describe in one word I often say „smash“ instead.

So if you ever hear an ace person say „smash“ or a similar expression that is usually linked to sexual attraction please don‘t try to invalidate us:

Sadly there are enough simple words in the English language to express a strong wish of having sex with someone but barely any that describe the feeling of longing for someone’s companionship and platonic love.

#same thing about calling oneself bisexual on occasion btw #i like to call myself bisexual because most people don‘t even understand that sexuality and romantic attraction are seperate to begin with #so as to not having to explain myself I call myself bisexual most of the time #biromantic asexual #biromantism #biromantic ace #ace spec #asexuality #asexual umbrella #Lgbt #Lgbtq #asexuals are valid #bisexuality #aegrosexual #lgbtq education

Yeah. You're not asexual.

Quite intruiging anon that you seem to have a better understanding of my sexuality than me myself.

I am a sex-repusled ace person. The thought of sex with myself involved in any way disgusts me, however despite a lack of sexual attraction I still have a strong sense of aesthetic attraction to people. I couldn’t care less about having intimacy with them, but I still feel extremly drawn to people’s weird quirks and character traits.

Not to mention that asexuality is a spectrum, and demisexual people as well as people who have an active sex-life are also all a part of the ace community.

I would highly recommend using the time you are investing in trying to invalidate strangers sexualities in actually researching and educating yourself about all the different forms asexuality can take.

I am valid, and it took me years to accept that about myself, and I am not going to let that be taken away by someone who hides behinds the comforts of anonymity and has not exchanged a singular word with the person that I am.

Besides I use the asexual umbrella term because it’s easier to understand - for people like you who are clearly not educated about asexual people because it’s easier than me having to explain that I am aegosexual because almost no one would know what I am even talking about.

Being a biromantic-asexual is literally hell because it feels like going to a grocery store where they only sell bananas and apples and you love both but you are also allergic to both of them.

So you ask one of the minimum wage teenage employees if you could perhaps only hold the apple and appreciate it without buying and eating it but they just stare at you and say “sir/ma’am, this is a grocery store, not a zoo. There are actual paying customers here”

So you just go home alone and eat some good ol’ garlic bread.
