fuckyeahasexual:Read The Article Here I’ve been going back and recording ace history from years ago, largely about topics that at the time were of note, but weren’t distant enough to recap as if it was a touchstone until now.This post covers that clash that happened when aces started to openly show up in fandom spaces on tumblr. How that conflict was largely between aces (of all sorts) and straight white women. While this article may seem like old fandom drama, it’s written in a way to show the inter-connectivity between groups, how community ideas spread, and how the companies behind fandoms can actually easily protect their LGBTQ fans. TW: Discussions of biphobia, acephobia, racism, and homophobiaThis is an interesting read. Can’t confirm personally as I restricted my participation in the DA fandom to the things the friends who got me into the games shared with me, and this article doesn’t provide sources except for a screenshot of a tweet, so consider this added to my nebulous to-do list. (You all know how I am about loving to have sources.) Some day, we’ll see if I can’t pull up some corroborating info, because this feels right, but I’d love to be able to confirm this progression. -- source link
