Being AroAce Doesn't Ruin Your Life | Alice Oseman's Loveless
Alice Oseman, an author I learned was aromantic/asexual after creating this video, wrote the novel Loveless, about a young woman learning who that she is aroace and how to accept herself and find happiness in life. I read it and absolutely loved it, and as a person on the asexual spectrum myself, I felt an obligation to make a video about the book, to help spread awareness about both asexuality and aromanticism and the times a person is both.
Please let me know what you think about this video in the comments, and feel free to share your stories about being gay/lesbian/trans/queer, etc. Reading recommendations are also very welcome.
