Lots Of Ace People Find Romantic Or Queerplatonic Relationships Incredibly Fulfilling, But That Doesn’t

wild idea here but… instead of pushing this idea that teenagers can’t be asexual bc they’re children and not wanting sex is normal, how about “if you identify as ace as a teenager but later realize you just didn’t want sex bc you were a kid and stop identifying that way, that’s okay” and realizing that doesn’t mean no one can know they’re asexual as a teenager and stop maybe telling asexual teenagers that they’re too young to be ace bc that’s really weird given that teenagers are cetainly capable of being non-asexual also you totally can’t decide something like that for someone else

Alien: You’re telling me that in times of great distress humans have been known to suddenly gain the strength necessary to lift objects more than a dozen times their own weight?!

Human: Yeah, it’s called “hysterical strength” and it usually happens in life-or-death situations, like when someone gets stuck under a car or something and someone lifts the car to get them out. We can’t really test it though, ‘cause it only happens spontaneously.

Alien: Humans have the ability to tap into untold strength and power and you don’t even know how you do it?

Human: Pretty much, yeah. We think it has something to do with temporary analgesia, so we just don’t feel the pain we should when we pick up a 3000-pound car.

Alien: YOUR PAIN RESPONSE JUST SHUTS OFF?

Human: Yeah, it’s like an adrenaline thing? Do you not have that?

Alien: Fuck you and your entire species of tiny juggernauts.

I’ve got another allistic ND person asking me if it’s okay for them to stim.

These questions break my heart, because so many of them seem to be told that it’s an autistic-only thing, that their stimming is somehow disrespectful to autistics. So many of them ask in fear and anxiety, needing the resources offered by general stim spaces or the use of stim toys, yet so afraid of offending me because they’re not autistic.

All I see is an ableist message of folks (usually allistic themselves) telling allistic ND folks that they shouldn’t behave or move like autistics. That they’re denying ND people access to tools, aids and behaviours that might help improve their lives. That they’re making the world less safe for me to stim in public by insisting that stimming remain shoved in the box marked “autistic”, consequently denying me normalisation and acceptance in wider society. That they’re, in the end, just using my diagnosis to justify their ableism.

It is in fact disrespectful to me, as an autistic, to tell an allistic ND and/or disabled person they are not allowed to stim. It is the direct inverse of the respect and support I need from allistic society, and I am tired, so tired, of the harm it does to allistic ND and/or disabled folks who need to, and have every right to, stim.

In 2018, I want to see the making of a world where no disabled and/or ND person ever feels like they need to ask permission of an autistic to stim, use stim toys and interact with general stim communities.

In 2018, I want to see allistics stop making comments on the matter of who has the right to stim.

Because this autistic, and most autistics, will tell you: stimming is for anyone who needs it.
