For so long, I shut myself off to dating, because of my asexuality. I basically assumed that if I ever even tried to date, that it would never work out, since any prospective partner would want to have sex at some point. So, I gave up on dating.

In church, I remember being told the verse 1 Corinthians 7 that says that you can't "deprive" or "withhold" your partner of sex, because that's a sin. Because of all that, I gave up on dating as an asexual, and it's why I've never been on a date in my life. I wonder if anyone can relate to that.

Throughout my life, I was told that I could never date because "sexual compatibility" is a huge deal in relationships, and that if you're not having sex with your partner, you can't date anyone.

Question for my fellow asexuals: Has anyone else besides me ever felt resigned to being single because they're asexual? Has anyone else besides me given up on dating, because society says sex is a prerequisite for dating? Anyone besides me? —Songbird ♠️🂡💜🏹

I'm more than certain that I'm grayromantic asexual. I am more than certain. I have a romantic "love" drive, where I feel romantic feelings very strongly, singing love songs on repeat. It's strange. My feelings fluctuate like that. Some days I'm okay with not being in love, and others I desire it.

Today begins Asexual Awareness Week, my favorite week. Finding out I'm asexual was a godsend. When I discovered I'm asexual at age 26, I finally felt like the puzzle pieces fit together. The Ace community helped give me the words to understand myself. I'm forever grateful to the Ace Community!

Is it weird that I'm 35-years-old, and I've never been on a date before?

I'm so glad to be a @jeopardyofficial.bsky.social fan. Seeing @kenjennings.bsky.social stand up for trans people is helping to restore my faith in humanity a bit.

The people who claimed they wouldn't watch the NBA finals because there are 2 "small market" teams really need to get over themselves. Even as an OKC Thunder fan, I have a ton of respect for the Pacers and how they play. That was an awesome game.

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersex-phobia and Transphobia IDAHOBIT (@may17org.bsky.social). While it is vital to combat these phobias, it’s important to also recognize Acephobia, which is on the rise & jeopardizes our heath & exposes us to discrimination.

The NBA is scripted. There's no way all the road teams are winning like this. This is crazy. It defies logic.

This week, Arizona State University removed all references to transgender, intersex, questioning, and asexual people on its website. Arizona State has officially kowtowed to Trump's genocidal warpath against the LGBTQIA+ community. Just gross! www.statepress.com/article/2025...

JK Rowling is still attacking asexual people on International Asexuality Day. She's ignorantly saying you can't have romantic attraction without sexual attraction, that you can't love someone unless you have sex with them. Basically, Rowling's saying there's no love without sex. Weird.

Long thread; please share this around. JK Rowling said that asexual people fake our oppression for not experiencing sexual attraction, all the while denigrating us for not experiencing said sexual attraction. All of this is on International Asexuality Day, nonetheless. Typical of Rowling. 🧵

9 years ago, I discovered I'm asexual. For years, I lived miserably in depression, wondering why I wasn't obsessed with sex like everyone else. Discovering I'm asexual is one of the greatest things I ever did. I've never been happier. I'm not broken; I'm awesome! 💜♠️🏹🂡 medium.com/prismnpen/my...

A study from King's College London showed 31% of people think asexuality can be" cured". I interviewed @theyasminbenoit.bsky.social for @lgbtqnation.com to discuss how the study's results display a lack of greater awareness of asexuality in society. www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/04/ace-...

NFL & NBA fans, a question for you: What NFL team is the equivalent to your NBA team? And for NFL fans, what NBA team is equivalent to your team?

Trans rights are HUMAN rights.

As an asexual myself, I have heard so many times people claiming they can "cure" me of being asexual. I've had people say "You just need to get laid right", "You just haven't had good sex", & "You've never been with me. And I've known many other aces who've heard the same.

A 1/3 of people in a study by Kings College London stated they believe asexuality could be "cured" through conversion therapy. And yet, people claim asexual people like me don't face discrimination and hate. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Jesus was asexual. That's a fact.
