I only brought up being “marginalised”, which by the way I don’t think I am, because you brought it up. You didn’t specify asexuals, you said marginalised people. So please be more clear next time. Second of all, nineteen is still legally an adult in my country. I can now be tried as an adult in the eyes of the law. I never said I wanted to speak over asexuals. I want to hear what you have to say, which is why I commented on this post instead of the original one. I’m genuinely interested in your opinion. I sympathise with asexuals. I know what it’s like to feel afraid to be who you are because you’re scared people won’t understand. But to me, when I think of oppression, I think of gays being put in prison in developing countries for being gay. I myself feel so fortunate to have grown up in a country where being gay is not only legal, it’s socially acceptable. People who are against gays in my country are in the small minority. I don’t feel like I’m oppressed, maybe I would if I lived in a country where I couldn’t hold hands with my girlfriend without feeling scared I’ll be put in prison. The point is, there are people out there who actually do face oppression for their sexual preference. Having your feelings hurt by some idiot who says you don’t exist isn’t oppression. Sure, it’s hurtful, but it’s not oppression. I’ve had close friends of mine say to my face that bisexuals aren’t real and that we’re all just attention seekers. But those are just words. Again, it’s not oppression. The most it’ll do is make me feel like shit for a day or two. Also can you please provide some evidence or case studies where asexual people experience corrective rape? Not saying it’s not true, but I would like to see some evidence. Sorry this is so long, just wanted to make sure I didn’t leave anything out.
