Just because a thing happens also doesn't mean it's necessarily suitable to be used as a grand symbol of something great. Trying to celebrate and portray the various forms of sexuality is a worthy cause, but imo picking a used sex toy with bodily fluids on it to symbolise love and unity is in very poor taste. As if it all centers around not love, but sex, and kinky sex toy sex specifically. It makes the carnality and the act of fucking itself the centerpoint, instead of the emotion and the love. In my opinion.

Probable asexy says what?

Not sure where the line on sexuality wank is in the wank containment area, but ^

Someone, I rather doubt the mods here are as eager to coddle the asmexies as they are on meme. Which is a point in their favor.

"Coddle"? Seriously?

Idgaf about asexuality politics, but this kind of categorical nastiness just for the sake of it was something I had kind of been hoping to get a break from over here. Like, there aren't even any self-identified asexuals involved in this? If the person in the quote had actually pulled out the "as an asexual I am being persecuted by the existence of sex" then the mocking would be warranted, but as it is, it sort of just feels like someone is derailing a completely unrelated discussion as a flimsy excuse to be performatively alienating.

do you really think people on an f/f comm haven't heard enough of "you're reducing f/f to just being about sex just by talking about sex-related things at all"

that line of thinking is tiresome and definitely worth making fun of, even if you think it's not ~polite

Sexuality wank is allowed in the wank containment area as long as it's not nasty for the sake of being nasty.

please just nuke this whole fucking thread, i don't come here to read the same stupid asexual arguments all over the rest of the internet and it's taking over the whole post

It is nasty for the sake of being nasty. Even if being nasty to ~~asexies~~ isn't the point, it's pretty clearly nasty for the sake of being nasty to people who want to do a femslash meme.

i wish it wasn't so taboo to talk about sex these days

it really feels like the pendulum has swung again towards conservative, anti-sex rhetoric and i feel that's unfortunate especially since sex ed hasn't gotten that much better in recent years

i hope we don't have a near future of sexually repressed young adults too terrified of exploring their sexuality to even talk about sex, especially if it's framed as something as "problematic" to talk about

Be fair. Equal odds that person is one of those homophobes who thinks showing gay sex is making the story all about sex, whereas het sex is an intimate act of love and closeness.

(frozen comment) Re: wank containment area

i've met more than enough asexuals that are also those kinds of homophobes

(frozen comment) Re: wank containment area

And I've met more than enough that aren't. Wow! Anecdata \o/

Being asexual =/= being a sex-negative prude.

Yes, we know, thanks to the large number of of asexies who have more sex than most so-called "allos".

FFS, people, can we at least save acewank until we've got more than 2k comments?

It's 1947 at this writing. SOOOOOON.

No, no, we had acewank already before the 2k line so we get a penalty. We can't acewank again for another 500 comments. (I think it's 750 if we're using the 4th edition, but so far I think we're using the 3rd?)
