rpanons | You're all idiots except for me

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

they think everything is like the movies, and being attracted to someone means you want to fuck them right now

No one is saying that besides you.

I have never not been attracted to anyone I've been with from the get-go. You're lying or ace or demisexual if you think you weren't. The only one who's obviously offended is you by raising your hackles at the idea that maybe not everyone experiences attraction right off, or that you may have some degree of physical attraction.

Thinking someone is hot and not just aesthetically pleasing? Guess what? That's physical fucking attraction.

stop

i wish i had a life so devoid of problems that i had to make up a fake sexuality to score oppression points on tumblr in order to validate myself.

I wish I had a life so boring of problems I had to shit on other people to entertain myself and validate my own unsureness of my sexuality by bashing something perfectly legitimate because I'm that damn insecure about where I fall on the sexuality spectrum.

I'm honestly not sure which side of this quote-unquote debate you're trying to mock with that comment.

lol you're so mad that people don't lick your asshole over your attention whoring.

Nah

I'm gay and in a committed relationship, don't identify as demisexual.

But I still recognize that there's other shit out there. People were saying the exact same thing about asexuals years ago--that they didn't exist, were just attention whoring, they'd find someone they want to have sex with, etc.

then that's not equivalent to what we're saying about demisexuals. the point isn't that there aren't really people out there who fit the description; it's that it's pointless to give it a label and treat it as a "sexuality" or a movement when seriously, it's not that uncommon, and chances are slim to none you're gonna get systematically "othered", demonized, or even misinterpreted for not being interested in having sex with people you haven't already been dating/friends with.

Nice how you ignored the overall statement.

Difference between interested in having sex with and actual physical attraction, tho, btw.

and tbh, i'd probably be able to appreciate the existence of the term "demisexual" as just, like, a shorthand, could be useful for dating or social sites or whatev, if it wasn't for the fact that the way it's used, talked about, and defended is all tied up in a sucky and kind of ugly understanding of sexuality and relationships.

i'd find it very useful for dating sites. it lets me know which special snowflake tumblrina to write off immediately.

its still a bullshit label

yes demisexuals sure do face hardships

it's hard having a small quirk, defining their entire sexuality around it and declaring queerness for sjw points, and then getting upset when people mock them for being a dumbass

i sure do feel for them

Must be hard on that high horse, anon. If only I had a life where the worst I had to worry about was trying to tear down someone's sexuality. Not like I haven't had people tell me my own sexuality is bullshit. But, hey, keep at it! Fight he good fight! No fake sexualities! Only gay and straight, bis just want attention and them aces just don't count! A is for Allies!

Actually the worst I have to worry about is getting fired from my job, denied housing, my partner being unable to get benefits because we can't get legally married, getting my ass beat AGAIN, or the general existential terror of knowing whatever gains for LGBT rights are made in my lifetime I will never feel safe because with the wrong group of people in power it can all be taken away.

Must be nice that your biggest worry is people on the internet calling you on your bullshit while the rest of the world spins madly on having relationships exactly like you do.

Lolwut

i've never said this and meant it more than i mean it right now:

go the fuck back to tumblr.

aces don't count

"none" is not an orientation
