Tunhope Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 When I saw the video title, I was mixed up in so far as I don't have a TV , didn't realise that you were referring to a programme, and thought that the reference was to the Relationships, Sex and Health Education that will be a curriculum requirement in many English schools from this September. (I've reasons for being very interested in the RSH curriculum.) I stayed to watch, though, and very much appreciated the use of cards showing the timing of iffy sections. Interestingly, as far as I can tell, asexuality does not seem to be a topic for discussion in the new statutory curriculum. (Topics are embedded I think. It's not full on hit students with stuff.) I suppose it will come down to whether individual teachers - and students - know about asexuality. As you say in the video, the TV programme is probably geared towards people who are sexual, so, hopefully, the word will get out. Link to post Share on other sites

Slice of Ace Posted February 1, 2020 Author Share Posted February 1, 2020 Today's video is an audience recommended one. A reaction to a popular YouTuber's video about asexuality: Spoiler Let me know if there's any videos you want to see me do 😆 Link to post Share on other sites

A reaction to a popular YouTuber's video about asexuality... Thanks, for your review; I also was a bit concerned about the beginning of the Youtuber's video. I'd guess that the misconceptions at the beginning were there as some sort of click-bait. Link to post Share on other sites
Slice of Ace Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 Yeah, seemed like it. Or maybe to draw acephobes in by promising something dramatic? Link to post Share on other sites
Yoruka Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Anthony does that a lot actually - he did it for living memes, witches and all the other people he interviewed, including former Kidz Bop stars and autistic people. You should check him out on the series, because it's amazing what he does as an interviewer. He sheds light on groups of people that are heavily judged in society. At the end, he's like, "These are just normal people!" And it warms my heart. Link to post Share on other sites

I'm a homoromantic asexual (gay ace), and when I was coming to terms with my identity, I found it was really comforting to see others like me on YouTube... well, others like half of me. The gay half that is 😂 People talking about themselves, being gay, and their experiences was incredibly validating for me personally 😊 Now, there are ace YouTubers out there, but not many. And, as far as I know, not any that exclusively create gay ace content. Correct me if I'm mistaken 😝 So, I've been considering starting a channel to do just that. I'm thinking of splitting content between asexual education/visibility, gay ace education/visibility, sex and relationships (ace-allo and ace-ace), and my opinions on a bunch of gay/ace topics. So that's my game plan 😕 What do you think? Is it a good/bad idea? Something you'd be interested in? Any suggestions? Honestly, I'd just like to give back to the community, and it would be worth it if I even helped a single person understand asexuality or themselves 😊 My plan is to have my first video out during asexual awareness week, though if I'm too busy I'll postpone it 😝 PS - sorry for the mammoth of a post 😂 I think it's a great idea. Can't wait to see your first video. I back you and support you. You're not alone, and I'd like to think I'm not either 😊 Link to post Share on other sites

We can and do and we laugh and can love very much in a general sense. Link to post Share on other sites
Ariana 358 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I'm happy for those who are truly happy because they are sexually active. I just don't find interest in watching a sex scene on TV or in the movies. Link to post Share on other sites
