??? wtf are 56.5k people doing liking this tweet. demisexuality is REAL. demisexuality is VALID. demisexuality is a part of the asexual spectrum. if you can acknowledge that asexuality is real, then you should be able to acknowledge demisexuality as well https://twitter.com/eighthgrade/status/1278014818579034117

and if you think that asexuality ISN'T a valid sexuality? then fuck you. don't follow me. block me, idc. just stay the fuck away. this account is a safe place for those on the asexual spectrum, including demisexuals

why does our society seem to put sexual attraction on a pedestal? why does our society say that you must feel sexual attraction to be valid? why is romantic or platonic attraction not enough?

it's okay to feel a lack of sexual attraction. yall gotta accept that

and demisexuality isn't just a term for people who don't do hookups. it's in the damn tiktok: demisexuals only feel sexual attraction after a strong emotional bond has been formed. i don't understand why yall gotta invalidate that

demisexuality isn't a term made to justify not liking hookups. being demisexual isn't just about not liking sex with randoms. being demisexual means you literally CANNOT feel sexual attraction to people until you form a strong emotional bond with them https://twitter.com/SAMIPRlNCESS/status/1278059731286765568

and even then, demisexuals won't feel sexually attracted to everyone they form a strong emotional bond with.

additionally, demisexuals can like having sex even with someone they aren't sexually attracted to because LACK OF SEXUAL ATTRACTION DOESN'T EQUAL A LOW LIBIDO/SEX DRIVE

to the now 66.4k people liking the post, yall need to educate yourselves on demisexuality, asexuality (and the spectrum), sexual attraction vs sex drive, the other forms of attraction (other than sexual; romantic, platonic, etc.), and just everything that you can

if any demi ppl have an issue with anything i've said in this thread, please speak up! i, myself, am asexual and have tried my best to educate myself on what demisexuality is/what it's like to be demisexual, but if you think i have crossed a line somewhere, please educate me!
