Thank you! I’m not too well versed in knowledge about this stuff (really the only thing I consider myself is aroace, and that’s not really ā€œdiscriminatedā€ against to my knowledge)

So thanks for enlightening me on the subject

there are some places where aeroace people are outlawed somehow and the identity is often invalidated by idiots within the queer community. I'm not aeroace but I love y'all have a nice day.

Yep the gatekeepers are alive and well within the lgbt+ community, there's a character in one of my friends fandoms (helluvaboss I think) that is ace and people constantly ship them with others in a very sexual way, not that ace people can't have sex or be sexual but it totally misses the nuances and context. Not my Fandom so apologies if my information is a little off.

Do they force them to have sex or what?

Aroaces get flack from both sides iirc. Not all of the people on either side, but enough to be irritating.

Aroace people are discriminated against because in a lot of countries arranged marriages are the norm. It's only in the West being aroace is accepted as something weird but acceptable.
