Quick Disclaimer: I wrote most of this book before coming out as non-binary! I may use my birthname and female pronouns, but those do not currently honor me. Hi! My name is Lane, and I use they/them pronouns. Hope you enjoy!
Hello there! I know it's been quite a while since I updated last, but this was a requested chapter and I just want to discuss a few things
Asexuality is not aromanticism. They are not mutually inclusive or exclusive. As some of you are questioning romantic vs. sexual attraction, I thought I would put that out there to dissuade some of the myth that if you're asexual you don't want to date anyone.
Next, asexual people who DO experience romantic attraction do not have to be heteroromantic! Nor do they have to be gay, bi, pan, or anything. Asexuality does not in anyway determine who you are romantically attracted to. I am currently a demisexual lesbian (I think), and neither of those pieces of my identity are dependent on the other
Finally, aromantic people CAN experience sexual attraction. Wanting to have sex with someone does not mean that you want the emotional connection of dating. There are plenty of alloromantic people who only feel sexual attraction sometimes, but for some reason or another don't want to date them. This is totally okay and valid, and nothing to be ashamed of.
Sorry this is so short, but I just wanted to put this out there
Thank you for reading
Much love <3
