    It makes me think of some lesbians saying that asexuality doesn't exists and we're closeted lesbians. Sorry but I truly don't like women or men...

    This is a sentiment I've also seen here (and an the subreddit before it got banned, too). I get it - LGB and A are separate issues and that LGB people have enough of additional letters but that doesn't justify denying our existence in general.

    I've been following skeptical accounts denying asexuality for years in hopes they have alternative answers for why I am the way I am. Asexuality is seen as a Tumblr invention (what doesn't surprise me) and I was on board ridiculing everything Tumblrish and I considered that maybe I fell for Tumblr trap as well. So I believed that maybe I'll find something what would accutately describe me, better than the asexuality label. There was never a good one. I have no mental illness or hormone imbalance. I quitted reading this because I have to admit it started to hurt me and make me feel bad about myself. I think I stopped doing this this year after 3 years. That wasn't healthy.
