Who the hell has beef with ace people

I don't think I've even heard Christian fundamentalists complain about them. Mostly because it's really hard to sell them as a threat or deviants in any way, but still. Very weird battle to pick.

Edit: Ok for the record I don't assume that Christian fundamentalists and other right-wingers are tolerant of ace people, it's more so that I've never seen any public figures specifically target them.

ace folks get the same abuse from heteropatriarchal christianity that everybody else does when they don't conform to social and sexuality norms. idk how often the tirade is about ace people specifically because that would require the preacher and the congregation to know what that is, but if you're not not making white babies for jesus they hate you.

Just say you want to be a nun and see their heads explode

[–] Des@hexbear.net 25 points 1 week ago (4 children)

which is stupid because Chastity is a virtue

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 24 points 1 week ago

nobody ever said they were consistent

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Chastity is a kkkristian virtue because it's supposed to be self-denial and suffering. It's no good as a kkkristian value if you're having a good time with it.

true. but if you are ace you can rack up god points with little to no effort so i would say go for it

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The kkkristian god only gives points for suffering that's why kkkristians are always inventing oppressions like the war on kkkristmas

"the whole time we didn't know this holy relic was actually the Lament Configuration and we opened it"

Cenobites have a healthier worldview than kkkristians

Christians have a very very inconsistent relationship with celibacy. Especially the recent more “ethno-national” types. They hold up crusading knights who forsake all lusts and nuns who dont look at no man so she could not be corrupted by them as icons but in the same vein, think celibacy and chastity as effeminate, selfish and weak.

[–] Des@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago

yeah the other day was reviewing the virtues as they stand today and it seems chastity is pretty downgraded

the four cardinal virtues still hold up. raised catholic so i always subconsciously followed them even if it was fighting my own nature in things

Especially that the roots of celibacy are so blatantly economical, it was all about concentrating wealth in church.

And don't ever ask them about eunuchs.

Ya gotta want it

I came out as ace to my family a while ago and the Christian fundamentalists basically said I'm being selfish and it's not real

[–] Future_Honkey@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I got the 'identity for identities sake' shit from my good friend and it sucked.

I did check him for that, and he listened. Like "im not here to litigate homie im here to teach your dumb cishet ass" kinna talk. We're cool like that tho.

Even tho i knew some ignorant take was coming it hurt more than i thought it would.

LSS i feel ya pain

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 22 points 1 week ago

I've heard some Christian fundamentalists do so. They're not doing their duty as ~~white~~ humans to procreate.

But you see, she doesn’t object to people not being into sex, just them having a flag for not being into sex, and thus becoming part of the Cultural Marxist plot to destroy Western civilisation and attack and dethrone God.

I used to assume that, surely, it's impossible for people to have beef with ace people. But, no, after making friends with a couple of ace people, I realized they get a world of shit not just from the usual suspects, but also catching intentional and unintentional flak from queer people on top of that.

And it seems to me that a lot of ace people just awkwardly put up with the abuse because queer people simply do not like being checked on the idea that they aren't as accepting as they think they are.
