Maybe explain to them what asexual actually is, so they might understand

I can understand being confused by two men or two women kissing.
I can understand being confused about using they/them for just one person
I can understand being confused about the difference between bi, pan, and omni,
I can understand thinking that trans people are wierd...

But when you watch stuff like Dateline, Inside Edition, and shit like that and get confused why your kid wouldn't want to be in a relationship, that is just sad...

Yeah. Unfortunately acephobia is still pretty common. My parents have always told me that one day I’ll find someone that I’ll be in a romantic/sexual relationship with, and I don’t really want that stuff. But they are pretty accepting, so I’ll try explaining it to them. Thx for the support!
