“asexuals are only 1% of the population so they don’t matter”

wow yeah so theres only 72 million asexual people yeah you’re right like none at all ha ha

You know who else is 1-2% of the world population?

Redheads.

Yet somehow it’s not all that hard to put a “fiery” redhead in almost every fucking thing. Why? Because they matter.

If asexuals made up their own country then, by population size, out of the 196 countries in the world, the Asexual Nation would rank number NINETEEN right after Turkey and would bump the DRC down to twenty.

That’s just how many of us there are. Our hypothetical country would have more people in it than 90% of the current countries in the world.

But we don’t matter?

Bullshit.

Representation matters.

We matter.

All 72 million of us.

So let’s not play this fucking game, ok?

Also population percentages are always low estimates so there are definitely more than 72 million of us
