Congratulations to @seattlecoalition.bsky.social and @openloveorg.bsky.social for getting protections for multi-partner relationships, pansexuality, and asexuality passed by the Seattle City Council UNANIMOUSLY today!

I want that to pass and I don't want to get in the way. That there's any mention of asexuality in there at all is a good thing. Thing is... Portland's change was from the same group with the same purpose, yet it's SO MUCH BETTER. I want to see Seattle do THAT.

I was part of one of those campaigns mentioned. What isn't mentioned is that Unicode started rejecting flags pretty much in direct response to our proposals. They gave a bunch of excuses to reject our proposals (even though their own sailed through approval), then shut down flags entirely.

This coming weekend, we'll be out at Marysville Pride on Saturday and Monroe Pride on Sunday! Remember, tell us that you're "with the band" if you're on the lookout for some aro or ace swag.

We've updated our "Field Guide to Pride Flags", a quick reference to a ton of flags and the identities they represent! If you've been to our booth at Pride, we have this printed out in a big binder. www.seattleacesandaros.org/2025/08/03/f...

Some very important letters have been completed! The Pride Scarf is now 850 feet long, not including this section.
Plastic canvas stitched letters reading "Seattle Aces & Aros" sitting on top of a scarf in the asexual and aromantic flag colors.

There is a lot of scarf now. #pride #lgbtq
A pile of scarves on the floor.  The scarves are all the colors of various pride flags.  A hand reaches from the middle of the pile, grasping to pull unsuspecting passersby into the depths.  A single eye watches...  and waits.

In case you were wondering, the pride scarf project continues. It's up to about 400 feet long now. This is the centerpiece of mini flags.
8 short scarves stitched together and arranged in a square on some stairs. Each scarf resembles a pride flag: Rainbow, trans, ace, enby, lesbian, bi, pan, intersex.

Unfortunately, they're not going to. I was part of the #MorePrideEmojis group that submitted proposals to Unicode for additional flags a few years back (including ace/aro). We were rejected and then they changed the rules to ban proposals for new flags outright.

It looks like Portland is using the first sentence from the NYC definition verbatim, so I'm curious how that's inadequate (Beyond its conflation of romantic and sexual attractions) and how it can be done better.

Do you have a link to the Harvard language? A few years ago, I was part of a group that (unsuccessfully) tried to get the definition of "Sexual Attraction" in the proposed Equality Act changed, and we were using language based on the NYC Human Rights Law.

Portland is home to multi-generational households. Blended families. Chosen families. Multi-parent families. Consensually nonmonogamous relationships. Asexual and aromantic individuals whose intimate lives may not look like what some expect.

It is almost Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week, so please enjoy these aromantic and aroace scarves and feel free to use them to protect against rampant amatonormativity on this day.

If you're gonna make a scarf, make an ace pride scarf. If you're gonna make an ace pride scarf, make a ridiculously long ace pride scarf. It's over 20 feet long and uses around 3/4 of a mile of yarn.

Do you remember where you first heard of the ace spectrum? Most of our 2024 respondents don't. #asexual #asexuality #ace #acecommunitysurvey #demisexual #demisexuality #graysexual #graysexuality
White letters that say "Places where we learned about asexuality" over a purple background and the logo of the Ace Community Survey Team (four squares colored with the asexual flag colors. The last one has a white tick over it).When asked where survey respondents first heard about asexuality and/or the ace spectrum, the most common response among ace respondents and respondents unsure if they were ace was “I don’t remember” (18.7% and 25.7%, respectively). Among ace respondents who remembered where they first heard of asexuality and/or the ace spectrum, Tumblr was the most common platform (15.4%), followed by friends or family (12.9%) and internet searching (11.6%). Among respondents who were unsure if they were ace, the top three locations were Tumblr (15.2%), friends or family (11.8%), and the LGBTQIA+ community (7.7%). The most commonly reported source where non-ace respondents first heard of asexuality and/or the ace spectrum was friends or family (19.5%), followed by Tumblr (18.1%), which ranked as the second most common response among all ace, unsure if ace, and non-ace respondents. The third most common response among non-ace respondents was “I don’t remember” (17.6%), which was the most common response among ace and unsure if ace respondents.

The word "asexual" has been used to describe a sexual orientation for decades. There is no excuse for its continual misuse.

It's Ace Week, so here's a reminder that "You Are Asexual" is an actual book that you can actually buy! You can just go into a bookstore and say "I want this book, the ISBN is 9781087906850" and they will sell it to you.

Has your state or city ever had a ceremonial proclamation recognizing Ace Week? Now's the time to look into making it happen! Many locations have deadlines of 30-45 days ahead of the event.

Discover when aces began identifying with their sexual identity in our plot below! This is part of our 2022 survey report. Find the full report and translations in our bio. #asexual #asexuality #ace #acecommunitysurvey #demisexual #demisexuality #graysexual #graysexuality
White letters that say "First identification with sexual identity" over a purple background and the logo of the Ace Community Survey Team (four squares colored with the asexual flag colors. The last one has a white tick over it).Violin plot titled “Age when…”

At the time of the survey, the median age of ace respondents was 23 years old. The median age of first identifying with their sexual identity was 18 years old for ace respondents. The median age when ace respondents indicated that they first participated in an asexual community was 19 years old. In general, while some ace respondents began identifying with their sexual identity in early adolescence, the majority were in their late teens. A smaller number of aces also participated in an asexual community in their early teens; however, many of them began doing so in their late teens or early twenties.
