ithaca Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hey, I don't have time to translate, but I know there's some Italian speakers and some who would just enjoy knowing things are getting better with media coverage in other countries :) Huffington Post published a really good article about asexual men: http://www.huffingtonpost.it/2015/11/05/uomini-asessuali-stereotipi_n_8478120.html And Sextelling also did a pretty nice job: http://www.sextelling.it/password/asessualita-significato/ It's going so well that we're getting acknowledgements (of not so subtle despise) from the extreme right wing here (those who protest against laws to protect people against homophobic/transphobic attacks). It happens that they basically copied good info from our forums, and they did it to imply how "out of control" this "gender-theory***" is getting, of which now we are part of (YAY!). Kind of like "Hey, look, now these idiots are saying there's even romantic orientation, not just sexual ones". In doing so, they're still actually sending out good info: http://www.notizieprovita.it/notizie-dal-mondo/gender-ora-ce-anche-lorientamento-sentimentale/ ***buzz-word the fascists here use to scare people saying the left wing/LGBT people want to turn every child into a super gay drag queen who learns to masturbate at 3, joking but not joking...), not strictly related to gender (of which they have no real understanding, of course).

ithaca Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Now we have a really nice article on Vice: https://news.vice.com/it/article/asessuali-italia It states "Asexuals fall in love" which forgets about aromantic ones, but I know the journalist did try to edit it in. The final edits were in the hands of the editors though. Other than that, it's a really good article! Link to post Share on other sites
