Like, the amount of times you hear this is mind boggling. And it’s always liberals/“leftists” who say they’re not racist.
“But I just don’t find them attractive.”
You have NOT seen/interacted with literally every single member of that community. How in the fuck can you just broadly say you aren’t attracted to them?
It’s just a preference.
Like, you’re literally saying you don’t find people of a specific race, or from a specific place, or who follow a specific religion attractive. What the fuck kind of “preference” is this? I don’t understand. That’s terfs saying they don’t find “trans” people attractive. No that’s terfs being literal terfs. Stop it.
I’m a POC too! I can’t be racist against my own race!
Yeah, you are being racist against your own race here. I don’t see why you can’t. Candace Owens regularly spreads anti-Black propaganda for her personal benefit. There are countless such examples.
This shit drives me up the wall. And I haven’t even mentioned the amount of times these devolve into arguments about how ___ race/religion is actually bad and people who are a part of it/follow it are bad. So. Many. Times. And said with a straight face too! By people who say they’re not racist or xenophobic. For some reason people think being a POC means you’re immune from being racist/xenophobic. Which just isn’t true.
I’m not saying your bad for feeling this way. A huge part is the culture we’re born in and grow up in. But a sign of maturity is recognising this ingrained racism and getting rid of it.
Sorry, just sometimes liberals get on my fucking nerves.
There is scarcely any adult demographic that is sexless besides asexuals and people with injured or absent genitals.
Many people have it harder, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

eh i think theres more sexless people than we think, and again just because its possible for people to have sex doesnt mean its happening, hence the alienation. , and again, if injured or absent genitals prevents people from participating in the sexual marketplace (assuming they want to ) that is bad in itself and is exactly some of the alienation im talking about, an alienation that is partially based on having marginalizing identities/experiences that are considered unattractive/ unfunctional within society's normative sexuality (which is genital based, cishetero based, penetrative based and able-bodied based among other things)
also its kinda weird how you think that those with injured or absent genitals being sexless is a logical conclusion to their condition...like this is exactly what im talking about, non normative people being made to sit in the corner, unable to participate in sexuality (specifically a sexuality that centers around genitals) due to the assumption from normies that they dont want to have sex/ cant have sex / and that that's okay because its what one can expect if they have injured or absent genitals
