“I’ve always rejected the idea that virginity equates to immaturity and the concept of ‘becoming a man’ with sex as the gate. I’ve known plenty of people…who frankly disprove that theory…To be a man is to look out for others…you never stop learning, even if you’ve spent a lifetime teaching.”

As an asexual myself, I have heard so many times people claiming they can "cure" me of being asexual. I've had people say "You just need to get laid right", "You just haven't had good sex", & "You've never been with me.
And I've known many other aces who've heard the same.

A 1/3 of people in a study by Kings College London stated they believe asexuality could be "cured" through conversion therapy.
And yet, people claim asexual people like me don't face discrimination and hate.

It’s HRT, for anyone who needs it.
It’s accessible, safe abortion care.
It’s comprehensive sex education that includes education about consent. No abstinence only.
It’s resources for single parents.

Just got my windshield replaced after a rock cracked it on the freeway earlier this week. Thankfully my insurance covered the whole thing 🥹 I’ve been so anxious about this all week. The cold weather and all the freeway driving I have to do for work really did a number on it. Stretch the whole way.
