It's such interesting timing to be asking about this :'''D because of the reveal of my comic's season finale.

But then again, the main characters in my comic are kinda half and half, so I dunno if it's considered.

L is asexual (he's still figuring it out atm, but he could also be demisexual)
R is bisexual aromantic

The main plot isn't romantic, just them awkwardly understanding what their relationship is despite what the society labels said relationship.

I had to look up what this meant.... why isn't it just called asexual?

[bluebutnoclue]

Because a person can be asexual and still experience romantic attraction. For example, a person is asexual but experiences romantic attraction towards the same gender.

Hnnnnngh I have an ace/aro member of my system (DID sufferer oof) and I think they'd really appreciate this thread! V wholesome. They're basically pretty lonely in a system full of allosexual ppl hhhhh....

[bluebutnoclue]

Now they have lots of comics to read!

[Wumbl]

We'll make sure to link any works we make abt our asexual characters in this thread bc some of our favourite OCs are ace! :^)

..but he is still asexual in the comics

Well, one current version was. They've backtracked pretty heavy on that since Zdarsky's run.

[sc101]

ahh shit here we go again

[Zyephen]

a·sex·u·al
adjective
1.
without sexual feelings or associations.
"asexual individuals may still experience attraction but this attraction doesn't need to be realized in any sexual manner"

Isn't that this definition? I don't understand the difference.

[yansusu]

That's what asexual means, yes. But the thread is about aro-ace characters so characters that are both aromantic and asexual which is pretty long to type so most people in the community just refer to them as aroace. Basically, everyone's lazy and wants to shorten things ~

[Zyephen]

So.... there is no difference or what? Is Aromantic dealing with relationships and asexual is sex? I don't get it.

[TAMAnnoying]

HBasically you can be Asexual and NOT want to have a romantic relationship with someone ie dating, handholding, cuddling (Sometimes I’m told light petting? Think it depends on the individual?)

We’re as you can be asexual and want all of those things.
