june is approaching and so are the insufferable exclusionists trying to make aros and aces seem inherently homophobic cringy people.
so, as an aspec lesbian who would like to enjoy pride for once in her damn life i have a request to non-exclusionists:
-when you see a post made by an ‘ace’ person that is so Obviously Bad and awful and Homophobic and all in all problematic in every way, maybe it’s because it wasn’t made by an asexual person but instead a piece of shit trying to demonize asexual people. if there’s a comment that says ‘this is why everyone hates asexuals’ ding! ding! aphobic asshole detected! please don’t reblog the post.
-if a post talks about how aces are better than allos and think we’re purer or whatever, that’s a troll. almost none of us think like this.
-if an ‘ace’ person refers to themselves as ‘acey’ or ‘asexy’ that’s probably a troll. while they were words we used to use exclusionists took them and user them to mock us and call us cringy. most of us don’t like using them because of this.
-if an ‘ace’ person calls allos ‘dirty allos'or ‘dirty sex havers’ that’s a troll baby! exclusionists refuse to understand the definition of asexuality, or that a lot of us enjoy sex.
-if you see a post made by an ‘ace’ or ‘aro'person that’s complaining about pda in pride, that’s a troll! if an aro or ace person feels uncomfortable we’ll just leave. we don’t go around yelling at people about pda. a lot of us like it in fact.
so in conclusion if you see a post made by an aro or ace person that’s too bad to be true, it probably is. please don’t put these people in my dash, it ruins pride month for me.

But more importantly, thank you for showing us Bow has two dads.
They weren’t just mentioned in an offhand comment; “My dads told me to always be nice to people” then never brought up again.
They weren’t shown in just one scene; after a battle, everyone’s meeting up with their families, and it shows Bow hugging two men, and we assume “Oh! Those must be Bow’s dads!”
They had a whole episode and names and unique personalities- as well as traits Bow obviously picked up on, showing they’re positive role models. They were fleshed out as much as they could’ve been for just a couple of minor characters.
They teased each other and had cute little moments that made us laugh.
They had intimate moments that seem small, but speak volumes about their love for each other.
They weren’t written as mere representation. They were written as people. Two individuals who love each other and all 13 of their adopted children.
And even though it was just one 22-minute episode, it meant a lot to me. I’m not expecting them to have a large role on the show (because they are just Bow’s parents) but I am hoping that we get more episodes with George and Lance in the future.
ALSO I LOVED THIS MOMENT BECAUSE GEORGE THOUGHT HIS TATTOO SAID “LOVE” WHICH MEANS HE GOT IT FOR LANCE BUT THEN HE FOUND OUT IT SAID “LUNCH” AND LANCE IS JUST DYING
R. I. P. oppy!! we love you so much
look what i found
