Hope asexuals take political power

After Sarah McBride's success to become the first transgender state senator in the US, I'm very hopeful that asexuals will start gaining political power, and therefore, a stronger voice in the near future.

    What do asexuals have to do with trans people?

      They are technically in the + category of the LGBT+

      In full actuality the lgbt+ do not speak for all people of different sexual preferences or alliances. Like how the democrats dont speak for all black people but the democrats still belive so.

    As the village asexual I’ll happily step up as IIN president to please you. No responsibilities, just a little crown by my username.

      All the degenerates here find dog buttholes sexy...and you don't.

      If America has taught me anything, it's how to have incredibly, incredibly low standards. You have my vote.

        Noo jist haud on! King Donald is not the lowest of the low. From centuries past here in Scotland, our kings have been attracted to things far worse than canine bum muffins. I don't hate the English for their high standards. Our humble acceptance of these wankers has never been appreciated. "Galvanized idealism?" That's crazy talk from across the pond. Aye, the huddled masses of Scotland know progress is a peely-wally flog. Sip yer Scotch me lass, all will be well.

    Never thought about it, but I'd love me some aces in power. Viable alternative to all the filthy child molesters and grab em by the nether region perverts we got going on.

    I saw the sign.

    Something that's always confused me: why do they pair asexuals with the lgbt stuff; they're completely unrelated.

      Because asexuals aren’t straight. LGBT+ is just anyone who isn’t a cisgendered (someone who’s birth sex matches their gender) heterosexual.

        I remember when it was just lesbians, gays, bisexuals, trans and queers (dont know why queers count as a seperate category)

        There just needs to be a + group coalition.

          Isn't queer just a slur for someone who's homosexual? Why is that its own category and why are people using it to refer to themselves?

            I never got why people started using it. Plus isnt metrosexual (act gay but straight) already queerish? What's the difference?

              It's probably just ignorance.

        What about someone who's sexually attracted ferrets of the opposite gender of themself, and only ferrets of the opposite gender of themself? Are they part of the community? They're not heterosexual, so surely the bestials are allowed in the community.

          No, obviously having sex with an animal does not make a person LGBT+ as an animal cannot consent. The fact that your brain went straight to abusing animals is concerning.

          If you have any more questions about what LGBT+ means use Google.

            You claim that it's "anyone who isn't a cisgendered... heterosexual," yet our theoretical non-heterosexual is apparently not allowed to fall under that definition. Claerly, your definition needs revision.

    Stop trying to be an ‘oppressed’ little victim. People nowadays think it’s so cool and trendy to just collect all these minority identities do they can feel like a victim.

      Nobody mentioned oppression or being a victim, stop projecting.

        Isn't the whole point of the lgbt community them saying, "We are victims who have been deprived of our rights."?

          No, its purpose is addressing and ending discrimination, not wallowing in victimhood.

            Exactly; it's purpose is to end the victimhood. If you have a victimhood to end, then you have to be a victim.

              Seriously, when has anyone ever been discriminated against just for not liking sex or not being sexually attracted to anyone? It's just not a thing that happens. You don't like sex. Whatever. Good for you. So what?

      Very true, it’s a fucked up level of pathetic. And it has caused serious social issues.

    • How does identifying oneself as an asexual, for example, equate to being an 'oppressed' little victim? Please stop talking down people just because their lifestyle isn't the norm.

        You think you’re oppressed and under represented in politics because you don’t want to have sex. In reality, you’re not part of any minority group (including the LGBT) and no one cares about your made up neo sexuality.

    Asexuals are people who don't feel sexual attraction towards either gender, not people who share characteristics of both. Your post makes no sense.

    I guess. As long as they have quality politics, I don't care what one identifies as.

    I hope they go to hell. They are totally useless to the rest of humanity.
    By the way, I don't believe this ugly sissy fag in drag you give as an example is actually asexual, I bet he beats to tranny porn in private. He is just saying it because it's trendy. Among his sexless, neoliberal-incel voterbase to excuse your failure to get laid. Just like Greta Thunberg claimed to be autistic.
    If he's asexual, it's because a thousand men turned him down on dating apps. If you would elect a trans, at least have a real one, there are much more better looking, feminine and presentable than this disasterpiece.

      • Maturity in general, and more on point, spiritual maturity is less vain. I'm not RoseIsabella, I'm the OP. If I'm of a deposition of not being sexually attracted to fellow human beings or anything aside humans, then take me up to the top of the mountain... I want to see my crime.

        That's your opinion. I don't have much to say except that I support OP. There's really no reason not to show OP support.
