And it's so hard to reprogram the brain when you've had a negative experience to not fear having that same experience and I guess that's the premise of prejudice or discrimination in some circumstances is just the assumption that the same situation will play out because of certain factors you're identifying.
Quite. Inasmuch as I am double-demi, I am on the Asexual spectrum. So I am LGBTQIA+.
Well, I was told by someone queer that I didn’t qualify—and was not welcome—because I am a cis het white male.
Whatever. A-spec folks are looking for acknowledgment and recognition as examples of a valid presentation of human sexuality, but from what I have seen online, people accept that others experience sexual attraction that differs from person to person, but not that someone experiences no sexual attraction whatsoever, or only experiences it under specific circumstances. Allo is the standard, and any kind of a-spec is invalidated, sometimes by explaining it away, and sometimes with animosity.

I suppose we are just highlighting the difference between people who enjoy traditional and structure and predictably vs those who like change and expansion and innovation. And it's definitely a spectrum.
Yep.
I think it would be nice to look forward to change and be excited by it and embrace it instead of get lost in fear.
Welcome to my world. I especially embrace change when tradition seeks to preserve human suffering and injustice.
