It's not distancing yourself further by acknowledge that people treat you differently. The problem isn't accepting that people are different, it's other people not accepting that you are different.DarkRawen said:Perhaps it'd be more of a given if people didn't focus so much on that one aspect of themselves? It's possible to be yourself privately, you know. :/ Sure, I'm only talking for myself, and that's of course the point of view I'm representing, but I simply don't get the deal with it. We're all different, and sure, people need to get over it, but is distancing people further really the answer? Why not just accept that no one is alike? Putting up a flag sure as hell ain't going to help with that.
Sure, asexuals (or everyone not the norm) could get rid of their flags, and stop confusing people by being different from the societal default. Which might be nice for people in the societal default that don't want to accept the existence of others, but it doesn't really help anyone else.
