Is there an AVEN for other sexualities?

Like a GVEN for gay people, a BVEN for bi people, a TVEN for trans people, and so on and so forth...

Or the Omnisexual Visibility and Education Network = the OVEN. Don't go there if you can't handle the heat.

 

I don't know if there are organizations exactly like AVEN for other identities, but there are other forums for them. There's ShyBi for bi people (actually only bi women), Pulse (I think that's what it's called) and Susan's Place for trans people, and then there are ones for LGBT in general like Empty Closets and LGBT Chat. YMMV on the activity level and enjoyableness of these sites.

TENI (trans equality network ireland) which I thought had a forum but I was wrong. I did remember lurking on a forum for transgender people in 

 

I think for the most part that forums for other sexualities  and gender identities that more people identify as, might be more organised by geographical location while we're international. 

 

Juno Dawson in her excellent book the gender games wrote

 

"pansexual, demisexual, asexual, genderqueer, genderfluid, and so many more" are "creating their own tribes - first online and increasingly in the real world

How about a SVEN for sexuals? ;) 

Sounds like a super buff Nordic dude.

Maybe INGA for those into women? :lol:

This is something we really need to consider doing ourselves. I'm not in the right headspace right now, but maybe when things calm down.

Another word for objectum (a)sexuality, ie. our orientation is towards objects instead of people.

Oh! I found a forum for trans people called TransPulse. Here’s the link:

https://www.transgenderpulse.com/forums/

I think that's the one TheAP was talking about.

 

I've lurked around there, it's not very active. It does have some information, so there's that.

There's Arocolypse forums for Aromanticism. 

 

 

https://www.arocalypse.com/   Come on by, it could use more activity.  You can even choose your own profile wallpaper (png images only).
