Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Here are a few I've heard:

  • "Identifying as demisexual is just a form of slut-shaming"
  • "'Demisexuality' is just the human norm, most people don't fuck someone they just met"
  • "Asexual claims of discrimination are an insult to the Black Americans who struggled in the Civil Rights Movement"
  • "Anyone who identifies as asexual is either an incel in denial or has a medical problem that needs to be cured"

Asexuals are just looking for attention

It's almost the opposite actually.

People should only transition at 27

Why is this number so specific?

[–] Binette@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

Something something "the brain fully matures at 27"

"People should only transition at 27"

Shit my window closed. Oh well, back into the closet I go.

"Asexuals are just looking for attention"

Is it that hard to understand that like, most people are asexual except for one gender, and asexuals are just asexual for the other genders too
