how to tell someone youre aromantic (and not asexual):
"i'm aromantic" ❌
boring and too much room for assumption that youre also asexual
romance is beneath me, and you can be too ✅
more fun with only sexy interpretations

If you ask yourself “Would Gomez Addams treat me this way?” And the answer is no, move tf on from that situation.
If you’re a wlw ask if Morticia would ever treat you this way.
If the answer is no, move on.
“Is this how an Addams would behave?” Is the best way to make sure you’re being treated fairly and with love
Except maybe not for sibling relationships because Wednesday likes to try to guillotine her brother.
no that’s just how siblings are
people need to accept that some gay/lgbt people are terrible and some gay/lgbt people are boring and it doesnt make them Actually Straight or anything
big pet peeve of mine is gay internet users talking about ellen degeneres and pete buttigieg and acting like they’re “basically straight” as if both these people aren’t literally married to someone of the same sex sleeping in the same bed with them and having gay sex with their gay spouses and as if ellen degeneres coming out wasn’t such a huge moment in the lesbian community and pop culture as a whole that the biggest lesbian website for decades after that was called afterellen like unfortunately being gay doesn’t make you immune to being friends with war criminals.
this unironically. i’m in a public policy program that hosts lots of activists and organizers as speakers, and one comment that sticks with me was “if you like every single person in your community, it isn’t big enough”. that’s the struggle of organizing, of intersectionality, of coalition-building, of getting shit done. it’s reality that even people with similar goals and identities are still going to disagree— often. and sometimes other queer people are boring, conservative, etc etc etc.
