Hi, I was wondering if you know any shows that have canon asexual characters?

OH BOY DO I

One. I know of one canon asexual character. Lucky for us, she’s a goody. Voodoo, from the show Sirens. She’s tiny and cute and friendly until you annoy her, and she has incredibly morbid interests.

They have a whole episode looking at her asexuality in season one.

One of the dudes gets a crush on her, and the other guys as well as Voodoo herself basically tell him to give up now, because sex is not on the table.

Instead of losing interest, the guy does a bunch of research

And he decides he wants to be with her anyway

Seriously I can’t tell you how happy I was watching this there were probably tears

And while I’m here and harping on about Sirens, one of the main characters is a gay poc

And the show itself is really funny and unique.

So in summary, Sirens is awesome and Voodoo kicks ass.

Swear to god, some guys are terrified that girls are faking common interests to impress them and act really hostile towards anyone they even SUSPECT of doing such a thing

but then they turn around and fake a whole friendship in the hopes of getting sex out of girls, and get mad at them when it doesn’t work

and they super do not see the irony in that

This whole concept never fails to astound me. Thank you for summing it up so succinctly!

Are you fucking kidding me.

there’s no way in hell I could take a bite out of these

It has a butthole

I’d take these to the petstore and just start eating them in front of children

And here you see in order a Gryffindor
Hufflepuff
Ravenclaw
And Slytherin

Bex Day: Harnaam

Harnaam Kaur is many things: primary school teacher, model, and self-professed “genderfucker”. Many will know her as Britain’s foremost bearded lady. A walking mass of contradictions, it’s best, perhaps, to think of her simply as subversive, and definitely brave. What becomes clear from talking to Harnaam – warm, chatty, open – is that her most remarkable feature isn’t her appearance, but her unwavering self-belief. (by
