And your sources?

I did some digging around yet I cannot find a single source saying that the "asexual spectrum" was coined in 1869, it was JUST the term "monosexual". This doesn't prove anything about the "ace spectrum" at all. You literally also said that "demisexual" was created in the early 2000s, which I found out was most likely in 2003 and even then it wasn't "demi" but "semisexuality". By this time the internet has already been invented, albeit not as efficient as it is now. The term, "demisexuality" was eventually coined on an online forum in 2006. Not tumblr but it's still an online forum, much like tumblr is now.

If you want to prove the existence and validity of demisexuality and the asexual spectrum then I suggest you try harder than giving one-liner replies and/or running away from discussions.

I'm not going to continue this with you, as you clearly aren't willing to read or put in minimum effort. If you look back I included sources and even dates of the sources. I'm not going to do what 10min of googleing could fix for you.

Like I mean sure? From the moment you gave me a one-liner for a reply and neglected the rest of my comment I already knew that this discussion has hit a dead-end.

Edit : You did give sources, but they weren't relevant to our current discussion at all? Which is regarding the ace-spectrum and demisexuality and not the amount of people indentifying as part of the ace-spextrum.
