===================================

 

Our October / November / December 2019 issue is about split orientations. We are looking for people whose orientations or identities don’t “match”. Are you heterosexual and homoromantic? Or asexual and romantic? Or maybe agender but heteroromantic? We want to hear your stories!

 

Fill out our question of the month form here: https://forms.gle/nSBhK5UQk3J38bCJ7 

 

If you would like to send us a longer piece, email us at avenues.submissions@gmail.com.    

 

We are always looking for articles and artwork to add to AVENues!

 

 

We need more people! Are you an artist who wants to create art for our issues? Do you have an idea for a column? Would you like to be an editor? Contact any member of the AVENues team on AVEN for more info!

I can't open the download link on Android. Got the error that the file format is invalid.

 

I am keen to read it offline.

So, I guess this might be a helpful place to link to your post in the Utrecht Meetup Forum, @scarletlatitude, in case those who've attended the meetup haven't seen it, yet (because it's gotten buried in the thread).

It's nice to see trans stories being shared, but I'm a little disappointed at how little focus there is on the intersectionality between trans-ness and ace-ness and how these identities inform and interact with each other.

 

I was hoping for a discussion about how gender dysphoria, hormones, constant boundary crossing from the general public (people fetishising trans bodies, cis people asking trans people about their genitals or their body, etc) or even unequal power dynamics / very different experiences between trans and cis people can contribute to asexuality.

 

Of course, you're limited by who replies, but trans stories are everywhere on the internet so it would have been cool to get more ace specific stuff.

borderprincess I agree the trans and ace link is terribly under discussed especially for men. For people like me who realized they were ace and then realized I was trans too because of the articles and posts from other trans people making so much sense and fitting with my own life events so closely.  I look forward to reading these articles.

Good points. You are right that we are kind of limited based on who replies, but maybe in the future we can do a specific ace and gender issue. :)
