Black ace folks have been saying this for years. But based on the responses to the ace flag redesign project, it needs repeating, because White ace folks don't seem to know it. open.substack.com/pub/acedadad...

The asexual community is anti-Black.
Fellow White aces, let's talk.

Loved sharing brain research with an organization that meant so much to me in high school! Can't wait to do it again next year!

Slate recently covered my research on “gender detachment,” or the idea that some people feel disconnected from identifying with any gender identity! I’m grateful for the opportunity to reflect on what this attention signifies—not just for my work but for how we collectively understand gender.

"I'm ace, sex-favorable, and in a new relationship. My ace friends say I'm not ace anymore."
