i disagree with the vitrolic tumblr discourse that shames asexuals (i agree that heteromantic asexuals don't deal with the same shit queer asexuals do but also i don't ever see anyone talking about queer asexuals and that's a problem right there) and the whole sex-positivity moment (which has been co opted by leftist dudes using it as a way to pressure women into having sex with them) and demisexuals are definitely co opting something that's not really theirs
yeah, i disagree with heteroromantic asexuals trying to claim the queer label for themselves and the whole concept of sexual privilege is a little, well, tryhard? but asexuality is a very underrepresented and misunderstood thing and trying to squeeze yourself under this umbrella makes it really hard to be taken seriously, i guess is what i'm trying to say
