@danishcookies I don't think I've been able to identify a single positive side to being asexual. You feel alienated (even in LGBT spaces, and *especially* in furry ones), relationships are much more difficult, and the support community seems essentially nonexistent.
This is why I've never been able to have any pride for being queer. It's a curse that's done nothing but make my life worse.

Also *hugs* (if you feel like it)

@danishcookies I don't run into gatekeepers, but they're not necessary at all for making you feel like you don't belong when you can't relate to anyone already and the people around you don't care about being considerate.

I figure. Those who stay silent in the face of oppression is also accomplices.

Don't let reactionaries make you feel shame. Gatekeepers are the bane of communities and they need to be purged.
