Aros can be hyperromantic and aces can be hypersexual. Idk about hyperromantic, but hypersexuality (also known as sex addiction) is a mental disorder and it’s basically a high libido but it causes the person distress. While it’s most commonly associated with CSA here on tumblr, it can also exist in its own or be a symptoms of other disorders (mania, PDs, etc). It has nothing to do with actual sexual attraction (which the ace spectrum is defined by). I assume hyperromantic is the same, minus being recognized by the DSM or ICD.
First of all, I know that.
Second of all, I am that.
Third of all, I don’t appreciate you assuming that I’m using hypersexual and hyperromantic in a casual context, or when I mean something else.
Extremely rude, anon. Extremely FUCKING rude.
