My upsetness at Jughead not being asexual is large. Apparently Cole Sprouse also wanted him to be ace, but NOPE. To be fair, Jughead isn't ace in every version of the comics I don't think, but it would've been nice.
jughead was aro-ace, in some comics he was just ace, but HE WAS ON THE SPECTRUM and they totally erased his sexuality - if he was gay and the show turned him straight, it would've caused a big upheaval but for aro-ace eraser, nothing happens, cuz its NoT ReAllY tHaT sRs
@@no.8Y In the Spongebob universe, I believe sponges reproduce sexually, since his mom was seen pregnant with him. I recall Spongebob just not having any interest in those matters, rather than being asexual scientifically speaking.
While I'm not ace myself, I'm really happy asexals are slowly getting more representation in media! They are a real sexuality, no matter what any ignorant people say!
The scene between 12 and river is great cause she 100% knows and he is trying to be all romantic like and she's just like "It's very sweet of you to try"
as someone who's asexual, correcting the definition at the beginning. we're not sexuality attracted to *anyone*. not men and women, anyone. not a single person.
@@sonicSnap really? I thought asexuality was the umbrella term. Sorry, I'm not that educated on this but I'm trying to learn because I'm considering that I might be asexual I'm 14, am I too young to know?
I think we can just both agree that time lords are space aliens with different cultural values that might confuse humans, and this is simply a matter of perspective.
I guess it's up to interpretation, I think he's ace I also believe that for Sherlock (in thinkin specifically Benedict cumberbatch) but others interpret him as gay
Hi there! I'm ace but I've never seen any representation. I've also just started watching the Hobbit and I love the dwarves, bilbo, Gandalf, radagast etc. Can you tell me how is Bilbo exactly Ace, tho? I just like to get it confirmed. (I've also never read the books so my knowledge is very low)
@@Ranahi_Itma Happy to help! (As a late-blooming aroace, I never quite realized why I liked Bilbo's character so much until I realized the following things): - Bilbo never expresses romantic or physical attraction to anyone, ever, in either the books or the movies (#Bagginshield is a crackship, born of Bilbo and Thorin's very well-rounded, emotionally laden friendship). - Bilbo never dates anyone, hobbit or otherwise, throughout his entire documented life - Bilbo never marries - When Bilbo does decide Bag End is feeling a tad empty, he adopts Frodo, a recently orphaned relative, who refers to him as 'Uncle Bilbo' from that point on - In short, although there is always room for creative imaginings and reading between the lines, Bilbo Baggins never has any canon romantic/physical relationships of any kind, never fathers his own biological children, and only ever cohabitates with his adopted nephew If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck.... #itsprobablyaduck/ace ;-)
@@TakaraoftheElves mind. Blown. I now see what you mean. I NOW SEE WHAT YOU MEAN!!! 😆😆😆😆😆😆🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 I'm so happy, thank you. 💕 Edit: I'm also pretty late. I found out about asexuality a couple of years ago. All this time, as a religious person, I thought I was mastering the whole "do not look at another with passion or else you're committing adultery" thing like a pro. And those who wait until marriage or never marries have a natural inclination to being celibate or maintaining abstinence, despite learning it's actually a choice, not a natural inclination. And I considered myself to be a late bloomer during my teenage years. But when I learned about asexuality/aromaticism/demi. It all became clearer to me. 😆🥳🖤💜♠️💚
I love this!! I just want to point out, re your list in the description, that I’m pretty sure at some point Moffat said he thought Eleven was ace. Or at least ‘more ace’ than the other incarnations. Which was one of the greatest revelations of my life, haha.
I haven't seen the show. But I know what ppl talk about. And whenever they ship Sherlock with someone (let it be Watson or some chick ) it just seems.... off. Like ehh... no. Thank you but, no.
I didn’t realize I was ace until I was 18. I was never interested in sex, and every one of my past girlfriends took it as an insult. A lot of people think I’m a closeted gay masking it as asexual, but that is just not true. Being with someone, anyone, sexually is uncomfortable to me.
I saw raphael in the first clip and almost started sobbing. One of my best friends is ace, as well as a youtuber i love, Shubble, but neither have rlly talked about it to me. So when i saw raphael on shadowhunters and saw him and izzy and him explaining asexuality i was shocked. Couple months later and i realize im asexual and it just all makes sense now
This is so good. It has been a long day of questioning myself and it's just good to see myself reflected in all these characters, canon or not. It's like a reassurance that it's okay to be me. Thank you 💚
I've been dealing with a friend (who I have to continue dealing with bc we're both part of the LGBTQ+ group at college) who says some fucked up shit about ace folk (and has for a year) so seeing this just makes me cry so thank you
I love this! As an asexual its nice to be represented. But I would like to point out. (not being rude, I just wanna inform) being asexual is mostly not having /sexual/ attractions to people. We /can/ still have romantic attractions to people. Not feeling romantic attraction to people is aromantic. Not feeling romantic or sexual attractions usually mean the person is both aro and ace. I just wanted to point this out, because a lot of the dialogue in this was “I don't like girls or boys” And for me, I can't relate (I'm a hard lesbian) And I'm letting people know! I don't mean to be rude, I just wish to inform. I'm not hating on this! I'm very happy to see that these things exist, I just wish to help people understand us better :)
Thanks for pointing it out :] I'm biromantic and asexual, though im also on the aromantic spectrum somewhere, so people acting like aro and ace are the same thing annoy me quite a bit^^'' always glad to see im not the only one trying to educate folks that do that
You know, I like to be loved. I like to have a special somebody. But it's buried under layers and layers of anxiety and stress and insecurity and trust issues. What if I can't satisfy them? What if they don't love me like I love them? What if I let them down? What if I let my gaurd down and they laugh at me and leave me like everyone else does? I want love but I'm scared. And I've got no time for heartache. Life's too short. I guess I'll be.
I’m crying! Literally! This was lovely and I said to myself, I hope Sherlock’s in this video because he is my ace icon and I really relate to him in a ton of ways (not just the head cannon ace wise but also with the brain thing)! So it was awesome to see him included in this! Anyways this is going on my favorites playlist because I’m going to watch it again and cry later no doubt
ABED TALKING ABOUT FARSCAPE IN A BAR WILL LIVE IN MY HEART FOREVER. Seriously, most relatable ace rep I've ever seen. "What is WRONG with you that you can sit here this whole time and NEVER pick up on the fact a man is hitting on you?" "Oh i actually did pick up on it after a while" "AND?!" "I just really, really like talking about Farscape." Story of my life, buddy.
Multiples actors who played the Doctor did it in fact :) David Tennant (10th Doctor and 14th) "It's usually not a sexual thing with the Doctor he's a fairly asexual character" Matt Smith (11th Doctor) "No The Doc's idea of an orgy is playing chess with an ostrich, his brain disentangle work in that way. He would find it weird and peculiar. He is quite asexual." Tom Baker (4rth Doctor) Colin Baker (6th Doctor) "I made my Doctor to be asexual and aromantic, love is a human emotion and The Doctor is not human"
@@emerald3960 The Doctor being asexual is an headcanon (canon now I guess lol) since the Fourth Doctor who said once "you're a beautiful woman, probably." The probably was added by Tom Baker (the actor) and since then lots of Whovians (including the new showrunner) just accepted that they're asexual so yeah
Omg I never thought about the doctor being asexual but this makes so much sense !! As an ace dw fan, I totally accept that. The doctor is now ace to me.
Bollocks. We can show who we are whenever we want. It's not limited to one stupid week. And yeah it might piss some people off but those people are gonna pissed off no matter what so fjuck them (not literally)! Be proud, all the time, even when it get's difficult sometimes.
As someone who is asexual, I know this is years old but some of this is also coming across as aromantic. For example the one clip where she says something about “I just don’t like anyone.” I know the creator definitely intend on like that or Wtv. I just wanted to remind everyone that there is a difference between being aromatic (little to no ROMANTIC attraction), and asexual (little to no S3XUAL attraction). And I just see that the two are often combined into one, even though you can be just aromantic or just asexual or you can be both (me fr). No but just felt the need to ramble honest =)
Spoilers for doctor who below Isn't river the doctor's wife though? And didnt the clone doctor go live with rose? I don't think the doctor is asexual. Prolly just pan
well my little confused friend, yes he has a wife, but asexual people can still experience romantic attraction and get married. He's likely much more towards not being interested in the act of sex itself, because Time Lords don't have sex to reproduce, its all scientific machines and stuff. And the reason the clone doctor who went with Rose might not be asexual, is because he's now human, and he got that human desire to have sex and reproduce through it. It does make sense because asexuality is very complex and it can cover most of the doctors behaviour, I'm not sure but if there ever are any mentions of him having sex before it could be because his partner asked and he wanted to make them happy, I'm pretty sure he can experience romantic attraction just based on actions through the show and yes I am just using "he" because I'm currently watching Matt Smith's series and also I think the doctor would be fine with any pronoun, given that they could be any of them. Is this reply structured well? No, sorry bout that.
@@SophieHanleyx "She eventually married Rolf Scamander, the grandson of Newt Scamander, a famed Magizoologist, with whom she had twin sons, Lorcan and Lysander." Because I thought it was weird she is so many ace comments considering she not only got married but had children. I don't care either way, I just felt like whoever put her in here so much probably didn't realize this.
my stupid ass didnt know that luna lovegood was asexual, but like, there were surely some signs. i love luna jsjbs Lakkdjwjdjajw BILBO IS ACE TOO??!?#!€2 I STAN I LOVE YESS
Having a child doesn't necessarily mean not being asexual, as it's more a matter of attraction to sex in itself. Some just don't really want to, but if their significant other wants to, they can do it. (Or if she really wanted a child she could have done it for that goal too) But i agree on the fact that she doesn't really appear as an asexual
I wouldn't say he's ace... at least I never viewed him as such personally. Too touchy and flirty, making deliberately sexual remarks at both Angelica and Elizabeth... but if you headcanon him as ace then that's absolutely valid of course
I don‘t know most of them but Luna Lovegood had two children with Rolf Scamander und the entire Hobbit trilogy almost never focusses on sexuality. So why are Luna and Bilbo here? xD
Asexual means not being sexually attracted... one meaning is you don’t really do it for the pleasure. You can still be asexual and choose a partner to have children with just to have the idea of having kids.
@@bastianp4600 they can if they want. People have options lol. There’s many ways to have kids. The act of doing it with someone,donating eggs/semen, and adopting. Some aces wouldn’t mind have sex but they wouldn’t particularly enjoy it but it’s the act that counts when you do it. Not the sexual enjoyment.
@@ExhaleToDecend while ace people do not feel sexual attraction, they can still want a romantic relationship with a partner. and in a romantic relationship you can absolutely marry. some may not be interested in marriage, but that is also the case in nonace relationships. it really depends on the person and not their sexual preference. (on another note: aromantic people can also marry, not because of romantic feelings but for other reasons.)
