It’s not just the internet jackasses. There were pl enty of ignorant comments made towards the Aces that went to the Pride parade in the A(sexual) documentary. Plenty of other examples given by members of Aven as well.
Most of the people in the documentary were just ignorant (and, in some cases, probably drunk…), not outright malicious. Most ignorance can be cured by information.

I am an asexual. I made the discovery in April 2011, after years of thinking that I just wasn't any good at being straight. I'm a cismale with a currently undetermined romantic orientation that lives somewhere close to aromantic, but with just enough heteroromantic touches sprinkled into it to keep things confusing.
Oh, and I'm a nerd. That could be important later.
Little by little, I'm trying to build a guide to asexuality. Hopefully these posts will be informative and entertaining to ace and non-ace alike. If not, at least it'll keep my typing fingers nimble... Either way, I don't claim to speak for all asexuals.
I also run AsexualityArchive.com and wrote Asexuality: A Brief Introduction.
