Ace cookies!

Hello everyone! Today I will be making my entry for the #LGBTCookie challenge.

I made a moodboard and a cookie, representing me and my asexuality.

This moodboard contains dragons and bats. Bats my absolute favourite animal and dragons being my favourite fictional animal. It also contains some witchy pictures, wich also are very important to me (a witch).

The rest of the pictures are my pronouns, she/they, and the asexual flag.

And then there's my cookie, I really like this one! The rainbow ferret is my own ferret. Because I just wanted to add something extra.

I also included the bisexual flag. I don't identify as bisexual anymore, neither as biromantic. But it was the label I first identified with. And it in some way still means a lot to me. The flag reminds me of my coming out (good experience) and reminds me of the time I started to love and respect myself and my identity.

Do you have any advice to someone who just came out as this identity? (ace).

First of all, I want to say to everyone, and especially aro/ace folks. You are not broken. you are not ill and you do not need to be "fixed".

Don't ever let anyone tell you that you have to change or invalidate you.

What was your journey like with your sexuality?

This is a though one, because I'm still trying to figure myself out.

When I discovered what the LGBTQ+ community was, I started doing a lot of research because I heard all the labels I didn't know. And I always like to learn more.

I stumbled across the label bisexual, and it just made sense. I have always felt the same about any gender and I always found it weird that people expected me to be attracted to boys only. But later, I realised that I didn't feel sexual to anyone, at all. I also just have no interest in anything like it, so after that I identified as asexual / queer. Right now, I am questioning my romantic attraction. Wich is very confusing. But I know I'll find the answer one day.

The end.

This is the end of my blog, thank you for reading! I hope it was fun to read. <3
