Rant about Arophobia and Acephobia

Vent

I hate when people say that aros/aces aren't oppressed, I hate that they use the shield of how LGBT got beaten up, not like aces/aros.

I hate how arophobia and acephobia is not taken serious from what I've seen from posts about aros and aces, I hate the isolating feeling I have thinking if I'm aroallo or not, that I have no one to talk to, my family who supports LGBT wouldn't think I'm valid and 'sick' of lables.

I hate the fear I have about writing the charaters and use the label and if my family found out, they might make invalidating comments, and they don't make an effort to learn, and I don't even want to tell them since they made me feel like that I can't talk about it, that it would fall on deaf ears

Sometimes It's like fuck the queer community for the discrimination that I've heard about aces and aros going through, like, yeah romance is important, but the fact it's like they might say "OhHhhH, EvERYOne HaS A CRuSh!11!" yet they would react badly if someone said the oppisite gender likes the oppisite gender, it wouldn't fly, people would call you homophobic, yet it seems no one has batten an eye.

And aros and aces don't come out because they've probably felt that their voices can't be heard, that they can't even defend myself.

I can't trust the community, I don't know it I really feel like that or not, sometimes I don't know,

Does anyone feel the same?
