“Don’t fancy a shag”
The Br*tish are a deeply unserious people
ROGER YE KNOB FOR A TUPPENCE GUV’NA
No thanks matey, aye be one of 'em asesuals
fr british slang is fucking revolting. “shag” is maybe the worst word for sex in the history of language. i’d rather someone tell me they’re “going to perform coitus” or some shit
I don’t know how they can say “arse” during sex and not immediately lose all libido.
Kissing is a wonderful, beautiful thing and they call it snogging
“arse” is so goofy i can’t help but laugh, instant mood-killer. “snog” sounds like some sort of novel disease or maybe a fantasy slime
it’s all wretched and it all needs to go.
e: damn, beat me to it by a minute!
They’re butchering their own language.

nurgle does promise near universal conversion into (lesser) daemonhood, no more pain, cute puppers, and a fun party atmosphere if you can get over the gooey body horror so i get it
cure for alienation? nurgle
Maybe she could write a mid YA book about a boy wizard who goes to wizard school
I’ll recommend pit diving
Mold farming is a full time affair!
Correct if I am wrong, but Assexual people do not like sex but enjoy deep relationships (romance) with other people, right?
As a gay man can someone tell me why straight people not wanting to get laid has ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME?! I’m so grateful to have organisations like LGB Alliance in 2025 to push back against this nonsense, it’s glorious to see them grow bigger & louder each year…
Are these people braindead? You can be homosexual and assexual at the same time, do this people think that sex = love? Do they think you need to love someone to have sex with them?
I doubt any actual gay people support the LGB Alliance, a shitty fake organization that only exists for transphobic purposes. Extremely strong “as a black man” energy from that post.
I don’t. Traitors are a dime a dozen, and gay men are the straight men of the queer community
straight white gays, the ones that think pride is too “flamboyant” and refer to the guy they live with in a single bedroom condo as their “roommate” and let straights say slurs around them to prove they’re one of the good ones.
Honestly, to be real with you, some lesbian, gay, and bisexual people are just very shitty, as no particular identity makes someone unable to be shitty. LGBT people are human, and humans, be they LGBT or not, can have awful, reactionary takes on things. I’ve dealt with a lot of discrimination from other LGBT people, not just on the basis of being the “wrong type of queer,” but on the basis of race and other things too.
I don’t doubt that many of the “LGB Alliance” people are just straight LARPers, but to say “no actual gay people support the LGB Alliance” is just denying and distorting how awful, exclusionary, and bigoted the queer community can be sometimes.

Being a member of a minority not a magic wand that erases all problematic views. Or inoculates from furthering systems of oppression.
As an intersectional person, this belief is always on my mind whereas it seems like many leftists won’t even think about it for half a second.
The neglect of the clear reality that being an oppressor and being oppressed are not mutually exclusive ends up being the reason why many POC feel out-of-place in majority white marginalized spaces like feminist and LGBTQ+ ones.
I’ve known very oppressive women, POC, LGBTQ+ people, and disabled people. Of course, all of our struggles against oppressive systems like patriarchy, white supremacy, cisheteronormativity, and ableism are of critical importance, but we can still acknowledge that basically giving marginalized people a pass to oppress other marginalized people, even if inadvertently, is just total lib shit.
Not related to this thread at all, but you should write a book or something. I like your thoughts.
5 years ago I would agree with you, but not anymore.

asexuality is a spectrum but the main commonality is not feeling sexual desire. being aromantic or not is a separate thing although there’s a lot of aro/ace folks around.
Ace is a spectrum. They can hate sex, be indifferent to sex, can be willing to have sex for a partner they know needs it, sometimes even find it enjoyable but not like the be-all-end-all of pleasure like many allos do. Sometimes, they see sex like a hug, nice to have, but not absolutely amazing. And the aromantic spectrum is also a separate thing.
Asexual people can enjoy sex. It depends on the person. Demisexual people only feel sexual attraction if it’s connected to emotional attachment. Gray asexuals might have sexual attraction some of the time, but not others.
Purely asexual people who have no sexual attraction may still enjoy sex with a partner on the basis of romantic attachment or the intimacy involved.
There are also uh…a type of person in the aspec (asexual spectrum) known as fictosexuals, who are only sexually attracted to fictional characters or imaginary circumstances. They’re kinda a controversial topic though.

Please don’t call me bro or other masculine stuff, thanks
My bad, it’s become a pretty generic term where I live
This thread is maybe not the place to go ”actually, that’s not a real thing”. No thread is, really.
Casual sex is very common and can be perfectly healthy. Stop it.
Are you sure it isn’t just that you’re demisexual yourself?
A few decades ago, it was super-common to hear some variation of “bisexuals are just gay people in denial.” And before that, it was “gay men are just pedophiles in denial.” Everything that isn’t cishet gets ridiculed as “not real” when it first enters the public discourse.
There are some ace people who enjoy sex for other reasons besides sexual pleasure. Or maybe enjoy sexual pleasure outside the context of other people. Essentially it’s a spectrum.

I’m sorry, but queer people like this are unsalvageable fascists and deserve everything they get. Fucking disgusting pigs.
I’ve been thinking about this ‘LGB Alliance’ crap, and I really think its actually ‘SLGB Alliance’. They’re choosing to hitch their wagon to heteros instead of trans people, ace people, and queer people. Its not just gross, its fucking dumb. Who do you think they’re going to come for next? Don’t trust the straights ffs (I’m generalizing, I’m straight myself lol).
I read somewhere that less than ten percent of the members of that “alliance” are actually lesbian, gay, or bi.
Who the hell has beef with ace people
I don’t think I’ve even heard Christian fundamentalists complain about them. Mostly because it’s really hard to sell them as a threat or deviants in any way, but still. Very weird battle to pick.
Edit: Ok for the record I don’t assume that Christian fundamentalists and other right-wingers are tolerant of ace people, it’s more so that I’ve never seen any public figures specifically target them.
ace folks get the same abuse from heteropatriarchal christianity that everybody else does when they don’t conform to social and sexuality norms. idk how often the tirade is about ace people specifically because that would require the preacher and the congregation to know what that is, but if you’re not not making white babies for jesus they hate you.
which is stupid because Chastity is a virtue
nobody ever said they were consistent
Chastity is a kkkristian virtue because it’s supposed to be self-denial and suffering. It’s no good as a kkkristian value if you’re having a good time with it.
true. but if you are ace you can rack up god points with little to no effort so i would say go for it
The kkkristian god only gives points for suffering that’s why kkkristians are always inventing oppressions like the war on kkkristmas
“the whole time we didn’t know this holy relic was actually the Lament Configuration and we opened it”
Cenobites have a healthier worldview than kkkristians
deleted by creator
yeah the other day was reviewing the virtues as they stand today and it seems chastity is pretty downgraded
the four cardinal virtues still hold up. raised catholic so i always subconsciously followed them even if it was fighting my own nature in things
Ya gotta want it
I came out as ace to my family a while ago and the Christian fundamentalists basically said I’m being selfish and it’s not real
I got the ‘identity for identities sake’ shit from my good friend and it sucked.
I did check him for that, and he listened. Like “im not here to litigate homie im here to teach your dumb cishet ass” kinna talk. We’re cool like that tho.
Even tho i knew some ignorant take was coming it hurt more than i thought it would.
LSS i feel ya pain
I’ve heard some Christian fundamentalists do so. They’re not doing their duty as
whitehumans to procreate.But you see, she doesn’t object to people not being into sex, just them having a flag for not being into sex, and thus becoming part of the Cultural Marxist plot to destroy Western civilisation and attack and dethrone God.
I used to assume that, surely, it’s impossible for people to have beef with ace people. But, no, after making friends with a couple of ace people, I realized they get a world of shit not just from the usual suspects, but also catching intentional and unintentional flak from queer people on top of that.
And it seems to me that a lot of ace people just awkwardly put up with the abuse because queer people simply do not like being checked on the idea that they aren’t as accepting as they think they are.
I can’t think of a living person who managed to burn more good will than her
I knew some queer folks who absolutely cherished the sort of “found family” aspect of Harry Potter leaving his asshole biological family who hated him for some immutable characteristic of his for others who celebrated those exact characteristics. Gee I can’t imagine why.
It will forever blow my mind that she, almost entirely by her own accord, torched her legacy. And she’s still at it. She’s the case study of how bigotry rots your brain.
I know it’s probably just because it’s kid’s media, but it’s interesting that she managed to build up so much goodwill with a story that has so many deeply unpleasant aspects in the first place. I mean, the woman wrote a universe where fighting slavery is bad because the enslaved just love being slaves so much. She said lycanthropy was a metaphor for AIDS… When in her story, lycanthropes prey on children. She named her one black student, and I apologise for repeating this because it’s so fucking gross but this is true, “Kingsley shacklebolt”. She named the one black student shacklebolt. In a story with a species of fantasy slaves who actually you shouldn’t free because they love being slaves. She made a story where drapetomania is real, then decided her one named black character should be called shacklebolt.
After all that, the fatphobia, misogyny, ableism and, yes, transphobia (because she even managed to sneak transphobia into harry potter) seems almost quaint.
Why did anyone ever let children read this absolute rubbish.
I was a Harry Potter lore nerd as a kid (before I found Touhou) so I just wanna do a minor correction that the one black student’s name is actually Dean Thomas. Kingsley Shacklebolt is an adult and an auror (wizard FBI). Different characters
She did however name the one Asian student “Cho Chang.”
Also JK Rowling is a massive Terf and I despise her
Haha, fair. I read the first one when I was 18 not long after it came out, then went back to Discworld, not exactly full bottle on this stuff. And yeah, Cho Chang is also a… Choice, but at least it’s not “shacklebolt”. Still gross but didn’t feel worth mentioning alongside all the slavery stuff.
That name always reminds me of the late Deftones bassist Chi Cheng.
In the UK they group the Indian peninsula in with Asia, so, the Patil twins also fall in with the JK naming conventions. Also being along with Cho being ‘training wheel’ dates/relationships for Ron and Harry to realise they actually want to date white girls Hermione and Ginny. (Putting Lavendar Brown aside briefly)

Yuuuuup. I think that’s closely related to her transphobia. She has a real problem with women who she sees as “inadequately feminine”.
It’s funny that all that problematic stuff got blasted into the forefront by Rowling being unable to shut up.
I could see myself in a different timeline saying “yeesh maybe I shouldn’t recommend these books to my nephew this ‘Chinese girl named Cho Chang’ kinda sucks.”
But now I actively oppose anyone reading them because Rowling sucks ass and her ass sucking caused a lot of people to go back and reexamine those books with a critical eye and notice the endless stream of problematic shit she wrote into them.
Dragon Ball fans stay winning.
The two most iconic villains are a real estate investor and some “perfect life form”.
About once a month I think of how the American localization changed the shirts on the demons in hell (which just said HELL) to HFIL and it became the Home For Infinite Losers
And it makes me lose my shit. It’s so goddamn funny to my broken brain.
I watched this recent Monkey King movie with my kid and couldn’t not think of HFIL when all the characters were talking about hell lol
don’t forget the antisemtism that was so thinly-veiled that when set designers/writers for the film adaptation added six-pointed stars (not in the book) to the
jewishgoblin bank she thought that was a great touchcw: antisemtism
She could’ve just fucked off and enjoyed her billionaire life, but she just HAD to vocalize her opinion on the Trans Question.
Hell, I do remember, before she herself stated anything transphobic publicly, but just followed TERFs and liked their stuff on social media, there were STILL people in denial that she’s a terf.
I can’t think of a living person who managed to burn more good will than her

It’s ironic. She ended up becoming a Dursley: an uptight, ill-mannered, worthless troglodyte who’s somehow proud of being a mindless conformist.

I have genuinely never seen real beef with the Ace community, how on Earth do you come to the conclusion that they are bad?!
Well you see they don’t hate trans people and they are on the same acronym.
That’s really all it is, Ace folks under fire for disagreeing with Rowling’s TERF worms.
Won’t have sex with her.
International Ace Day is more about educating people on asexuality as opposed to going over discrimination they face. A lot of people don’t understand it, which is why the day exists.
And also, why does she care about us? Like you’re a billionaire who got famous off a mid book series and instead of retiring, you’re whining about trans and ace people on Twitter.
Fancy a shag, m8?
M’am you’re what like 60 years old and you sound like Austin Powers. Grow up.
This woman very much went out of her way to target ace people because she clearly looked up the date of this day relevant to them and saved it.
Not ace but I’m somewhat left wing and queer and I could not tell you when International Ace day is. I suspect many ace people couldn’t tell you when it is… But she planned for it.
I was blind sided by Trans day of visibility this year… and i’m trans lmao. I can’t get my own day straight (heh get it), let alone anyone else’s in the rainbow gang
I’m ace and forgot it was yesterday until I saw this post
This is fake oppression, as opposed to the real oppression toward me, a billionaire, by people not liking my tweets.
So much of sexual politics can be boiled down to “these people won’t breed and thus are insufficiently loyal to the nation/family line and should be punished”. Which is wild because people don’t say this and instead say all sorts of other things to try to justify their bigotry.
Brits and their bloodline obsession. Name a more iconic duo, I’ll wait
Brits and inbreeding? Brits and colonialism? Brits and being universally despised for good reason?
There’s actually only one type of person who shouldn’t exist and it’s the JK Rowling type. All other people are valid.
The rich?
The level of SHOCK and SURPRISE on my face knowing that she would EVER do SOMETHING SO SHITTY
(deadass fr fr)
Where in that image does it say anything about oppression? The thing about being ace is that society makes you feel like an alien, like something is wrong with you in a society where sex and relationships saturates everything. So finding other ace people can make you feel less alone and help you realize there’s absolutely nothing wrong you. Getting mad about ace people have a day for themselves in really petty, J.K. really is just an awful person.
Idk if you’d call that oppression but I assume ace people might be one of the groups most bombarded by micro aggressions given how sex-obsessed society is
I’m pretty sure being told again and again that romance can’t possibly work without sex must be at least extremely fucking tiring
It’s also about normalizing being ace, and making it more widely known that ace people exist so when non-ace people encounter ace people they’re understanding and accepting rather than dismissive. Something that JKR clearly has an issue with.
people: explain something about themselves
white billionaire western woman: OH BOO FUCKIN HOO OPPRESSION OLYMPICS INNIT??
