I think one think I loved about reddit’s #aaaaaaacccccccce subreddit was how inclusive it was. No matter what part of the #LGBTQ spectrum you were, your posts were often well recieved by everyone there. I hope to continue that on #kbin’s aaaaaaacccccccce community

    Yeah, it seems like part of being ace/aro is that understanding of what it’s like to not be exactly straight, in whichever way is specific to their kind of asexuality/aromanticism. So in general it can be way easier to understand other people being different, even if the understanding of how it feels to have attraction to someone may or may not be there. And so ace/aro people tend to be more inclusive, sometimes even more so than other parts of LGBTQIA+ it feels like.

    And on that sex repulsed vs sex neutral/favorable balance, it seemed like it was a hard balance to keep there. I myself am sex repulsed, but I’m not going to complain just because someone else isn’t. If anything, I’m quite supportive of people being comfortable with what they do or don’t enjoy. So I’m not entirely sure what would avert that constant back and forth shifting of overall tone.
