This is kind of why I don’t have any of that information in my side bar like a nutrition label, and why I didn’t put my giant post in any of the relevant tags. Too many people yelling about ‘doing it wrong’ and that I have been uncomfortable with nearly every word ever used to describe me. It’s why I’m so often saying 'someone on the asexual spectrum’ rather than 'asexual’, though the latter is an easier shorthand. I saw that there were words at some point that got close to how I rolled, so that felt close-enough-ish for me to know that there were other people like me and I could use the words to guide someone who mattered latter. Now I don’t really have a word for what I do, just a lot of 'These are sort of it, I’m in this spectrum somewhere, I guess, whatevs.“ Some people want nothing, some people want an itemized list. Whatever works.
And thank you!
