    Thanks for all the kind words everyone! Kinda wish I wrote more of a script for this instead of just rambling all over the place for four minutes but I'm glad you can all take something away from it. Happy Ace Week!

    Thanks for sharing! Visibility is indeed a huge part that's missing from the media still.

    Love the hair :)
    So when I hit that "age" I had sort of a strange experience, I became physically attracted to girls (also men but I suppressed this) but I didn't really care to do anything about it. It was more of annoyance, almost like an allergy. I often got accused of being gay and didn't date until I was 21. About a month in she started pressuring me for sex and I was NOT into it. Long story short, she basically forced it on me and shamed me for not wanting it. It was some of the worst, if not THE worst trauma of my life. I eventually was able to pull it off when I fell in love and was able to disassociate myself from the act and focus on her. We ended up breaking up after a little over a year and I stopped dating for over a decade. When I started telling people I was ace I was told such a thing didn't exist, and up until a few years ago when I found other aces I just assumed I was broken and would never be able to be in a relationship because I couldn't "put out." Anyways, great video. Nice to find a corner of the internet where I can relate with everyone so much

    As I continue to learn about the Ace community and the orientation, it is becoming more and more apparent that Ace visibility and representation are absolutely necessary to help others. Thank you for sharing your inspirational story and happy Ace Week!🖤💜

    So I am the fabled partner, who asked if they were gay 😅 but again this was again due to a lack of visibility! I didn't know asexuals existed at this point and neither did Tommy! We are still together! Just to clarify I am not asexual, but I'm so proud of Tommy for discovering themself and being authentic! Happy Ace week everyone 🤍💜🖤

    I did get the "late bloomer" alot in school, I remember whenver we would do truth or dares, the response "I dont like anyone" seems to not satisfy my friends as an answer so I would usually say "they dont go in this school" 😂
    Hopefully Asexual representation in media becomes more prominent
    Great video btw Tommy 💜🤍🖤
