i don’t think it’s exclusion; they said that being cis, straight, and ace doesn’t make you lgbt alone and i agree, because that’s based on a different gender identity (my bad if i worded that wrong) or same sex attraction and being cis straight and ace falls in neither. i’m asexual and gay and i agree with this. being straight and ace alone doesn’t give you the experience of slurs and the torture of coming out since your sex life is for the most part private.

  • so i read this to an ace friend who has inserted her personal opinion:

    “i think it’s a lot of personal opinion. ‘being ace alone doesn’t give you the trauma’ - i agree with that because i’ve never experienced it and i still don’t. it’s hard to associate with that aspect of the community when i personally have never gone through this or even spoken about it explicitly to other people. i think people can say that asexuality is part of the lgbtq+ spectrum but i think it also changes when you add gender identity (ie, cis) onto it. you just don’t feel the same as somebody else who is having issues. i won’t have issues the way my female cousin, whose wife’s whole family didn’t come to their wedding. i won’t have that issue since i’m ace. in terms of experience and circumstance, it is very different - especially since an asexual person’s identity and experiences are so private because it’s about sexual attraction. you are totally allowed to identify as part of this community but it’s important to remember that we can make this about others that are having issues and are being discriminated against/killed instead of us. there are different ways to identify with this community and it varies from individual to individual. i personally am only cis-straight-ace so i cannot speak for anyone outside of this demographic, but it all changes from identity to identity in the end.”

    i personally cannot speak for anyone that is asexual, but i as a bisexual do consider my ace friends as part of the community - but that is me and my personal view of my friends. it’s totally valid for an ace individual to think they personally do not identify with this community!
