Personally I think you’re wrong and an idiot but that’s just my opinion.

Fyi this isn’t a dig at people who are asexual or sex-repulsed. Gay sex was literally a criminal act in the parts of the United States Texas until 2003. A healthy relationship to both sex and your body is a major component of the human experience, but especially LGBTQ+ people. Yes this includes people who have a healthy understanding of their boundaries with regards to sex. To try and divorce the fight for LGBTQ+ rights from sexuality is both dangerous and ahistorical.

friendly unfriendly reminder that the sex stripe never stood for just the act itself, it stood for the choice to engage in it. it stood for uncomventional sexualities and preferences.

that fucking includes ace/sex-repulsed people.

like. it is conventional to want sex! those that don’t actively defy that role. they *choose* not too - that is part of the history of the stripe too (not to take away from OPs point tho - gay sex as a criminal act is absolutely enough in its own to bring the color back).
