This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The comments on here make me glad I'm aromantic.
Hey, thanks… I didn’t know that was a thing that’s separate from asexual. I thought I was just Ace, but Aro-Ace is more accurate.
Not sure it matters a whole lot. Haven’t given it much thought.
I misread that as aromatic and was quite confused.
They reproduce by spreading spores like Rob Lowe's character on The Orville
Look, I might be a bit aromatic sometimes, but no, that's not what I meant.
As a lesbian leaning pansexual, I keep asking the question "are straights okay"
No, they are not. (As a straight person by most definitions probably)
Nope.
I was straight for a long time (until I was 35). I think my brain chemistry changed through relationship and dating trauma. Seven years later and I continue to no longer feel attraction to anyone at all, ever.
If I linked to the data showing that f/f couples have higher domestic violence than either m/f or m/m couples and then said 'I keep asking "are lesbians okay"', would you not think that a callous and insensitive thing to say, implying that it's majority or typical behavior for lesbians?
I enjoy working and making things. I find being intellectually stimulated almost as satisfying as being happy or anything else. You have absolutely no idea how much of a super power being an aromatic asexual would be for me. I'd be unstoppable, lol.
I think I know what you're getting at, I wouldn't necessarily call myself asexual though, as I do watch... naughty things (I'm too lazy to look up rules, I'm not shy in that respect) I just waste a lot of time getting informed on politics instead, so no guarantees for more free time😉
