Asexuals can experience coercive heteronormativity!
That doesn’t make them any less ace. It doesn’t make them any less valid.
asexuals aren’t real
This means there are two explanations:
A) I, as well as 1% of the population, do not exist. We are mythical creatures known only in song and story. This post doesn’t exist because I never made it because I’m not real.
B) You are a fool and need to reevaluate your opinions and the way you treat people different from yourself.
the answer is A..
The answer is A…
Guys I’m not real
This is actually a really useful and valid tactic. I’ve used it before
when trying to get people to accept my identity.
I say, “Hello, I’m from
the gas board, I’m here to read the gas meter,”
and they say “But they
sent a guy last week”,
and I say “You sure about that?”
and they say “Yup, they left a card and everything”,
and I say “Uh, well, I guess I just don’t exist
then?? Either A) I don’t exist, or B) you’re mistaken. Which is it?”
And then I stare at them pointedly until they concede and let me into the premises.
And, well, then I do the hit, you know the rest.
I’ve taken to calling it “gas-lighting”, because
it’s one of the “lighter” techniques I use when convincing people, and because I often pose as a gas technician. (What can I say? When you look as good as I do in blue boiler suits, it’d be a crime not to! ^_^ )
