[The “A” is for asexuals & aromantics- not allies]
Mine, please and thank you
If the A can stand for two things at the same time, why can’t it stand for Allies as well?
I like Allies. I want them to join me in all the fun shit I do! I don’t wanna go to Pride festivals and see people telling Allies they can’t be there because it’s not what the bloody A stands for.
Allies are important too.
No ones saying Allies can’t be part of it! I think its more the fact that Asexuals and Aromanticas are erased from the whole spectrum. When talking about the LGBT community, thats usually the extent of what people know.
A lot of people don’t even know that Asexuals even EXIST, and that’s not fair either. Especially when the whole abbreviation is for queer individuals, not straight allies.
I love allies, too! They’re great and very important! But they’re not the ones that need to be recognized.
