Hi! My name is Stella and I’m writing my senior paper about asexuality. I have a survey that has a couple of questions that ask about your personal definitions/experiences with asexuality. If you could please take this survey, it would help me out a whole bunch! I need responses by December 18th, at around 9:30 ish AM, EST. The answers you give will remain confidential, only I will see them, and your name will not be mentioned in my paper, unless otherwise stated by you.

To give your responses, you must be asexual, that’s all.

Link to the survey:

If you plan on taking the survey, could you please like this post as well? Thank you!

okay, inspired by a conversation I’ve had to have way too many times, may I remind you all of this

Classifying yourself as ace is not bad

Being ace is not a sign of being broken

Yes, you can still like romance without being sexually attracted to someone

There are various forms of asexuality, including demisexual and cupiosexual

Ace is not the same as straight

Being ace is not under “special snowflake uwu” stuff, it’s legit

Being ace and aro isn’t weird

Aromanticism does exist and it’s not something that makes you broken

“you’ll find someone eventually” is not good ally advice

A in LGBTQA+ is never, ever for “allies”

Thanks and goodbye
