Is there an Asexual friendly space in this site? (hexbear.net)

Because well, I am Asexual, and well.... it is incredibly rare to find another Asexual person anywhere. Not to shame people for their interests, but I am not comfortable with a lot of posts, even if they are meant to be for a joke, implying that everyone gets horny, and/or that apparent "Peak Hedonism" or whatever it's called, is about having lots of sex. Again, something I am not interested in.

I have seen no signs of any Asexual friendly spaces on this site, not even in the LGBTQIA+ Subcommunity for this site. Although I have been socially isolated by otherwise queer friendly spaces before, for "only" being Asexual.

when sexuality is literally the defining criteria for the comm.

Are you suggesting being trans is a sexual thing?

They probably forgot to write the "straight" part when you were replying to the comment.

That's correct. The criticism is still valid though.
