Continuing from the last post, same trigger warnings (rape comparison being the big one)

TW: for rape comparison, asexual erasure, mansplaining,

So, I'm part of a group on Fetlife that posts bad conversations on Omegle and other sites. I had posted a chat where I was suprised that I had a good non-sexual conversation on the Bad Dragon interest tag (Bad Dragon being a company that makes dildos). My thoughts in italicized parentheses.

It started there:

Friend:
Oh wow, so you can have a non sexual conversation!

Me:
And yet I get all these people in the BDSM tag who insist I must be there to talk about sex!

Jerk:
@me well isn't Bdsm about sexuality to a degree? But good convo none the less :)  (This is someone else on Fetlife who has been doing BDSM for a long time. Not a newb, not an outsider)

TW: asexuality hate, otherkin hate

I've been going on Omegle a lot (I don't recommend it except for bile fascination). I usually get mad at people who argue with me about being genderqueer (which always degenerates to "are you REALLY a man or a woman?" And that's the nice way of putting it). I've been posting a bunch of them on a group on Fetlife (if there's interest I can pull them to put here). This one was just special.

I'm cutting the beginning of this, but we had talked before on the feminism tag (which is mostly trolls), and then he got on this:

Stranger: Male socialization is a sex related thing. I thought you were female?
You: I'm genderqueer
Stranger: That doesn't mean you have no sex.
You: FAAB and asexual (I was trying to cut him off, because I didn't want him to hit on me)
Stranger: You're not asexual. No human is asexual. That's just a basic misuse of a term.
You: Dude, don't tell me what I am
You: That's feminism 101
Stranger: It's facts and science.
You: I have little to no interest in having sex with people. Thus asexual.
Stranger: That's not what asexual is, according to science. Are you familiar with asexual reproduction?
You: That's what the asexual orientation is. Words can have multiple meanings.
Stranger: Words can have multiple meanings, but that doesn't mean they do. But sure, lets just say that asexual is a sexual orientation. I'll agree with you.
You: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asexuality
Stranger: That still doesn't have anything to do with the fact you have a sex.
You: I said I'm FAAB
Stranger: Right. So your sex is female.
You: Look. You've already insulted me once.
You: I'm pissed at you.
Stranger: I don't see how science and biology is insulting. (Because you have cis male privilege and thus all this is hypothetical to you)
You: You said that I couldn't be asexual and you dismissed it as a real orientation
Stranger: Do you just not understand the difference between sex and gender or...
You: Of course I do.
Stranger: So then what's the problem with stating that your sex is female? I legit don't get it.
You: I don't identify as female. I identify as genderqueer. (I especially don't identify as female on a website where I have to say I'm not going to do sexchat for every conversation)
Stranger: The gender part is the problem, since I am not talking about gender.
You: And this isn't about my body. This is about you dismissing my sexuality.
Stranger: I don't see how pointing out that your sex is female has anything to do with your sexuality.
You: "Words can have multiple meanings, but that doesn't mean they do. But sure, lets just say that asexual is a sexual orientation" <<< that right there is the problem
Stranger: Okay. So we've switched topic to your sexuality instead of your sex I guess? Maybe I lost track.
You: When you were dismissive of my identity, that's when I got pissed.
Stranger: I'm dismissive of all things that aren't factual.
You: Go fuck yourself with a cactus
You: There have been numerous studies about asexuality
Stranger: That doesn't change the fact that you're upset I pointed out something is not factual.
You: I provided a link to basic information already
Stranger: They've done multiple studies about "otherkin" that think they're dragons too. (1 - I don't know if that's true. I see none on the wikipedia page 2 - I have no problem with otherkin. I don't know enough about them to judge them, but I tend to take a live and let live attitude towards things. Life is rough enough without being an asshole. )
Stranger: And otherkin have a wiki page too. (One that is far less biased than this asshat)
Stranger: So...
You: Go die
Stranger: For pointing out facts?
You: Those aren't facts
Stranger: Yeah, they are.
You: Then why don't I have any interest in having sex with people?
You: How about the other thousands of people in the US who don't?
Stranger: That would just mean you have no sexual orientation.
You: Thus asexual
Stranger: Nope. That's a misuse of the term.
You: Look, prefixes! How do they work?
Stranger: I know how they work, and I know how the english language works.
You: http://www.asexuality.org/home/
You: REad and learn you self righteous asshole
Stranger: I can already tell that's not a well supported or non-biased website by the URL. (the fucking fuck?)
You: Really?
Stranger: Like... do you get how things have to be well supported or anything? like all the resources on the wikipedia page and AVEN?
Stranger: Like not everything on the internet is true?
You: The mostly widely cited source of asexuality isn't true?
Stranger: They have "otherkin" websites too.
Stranger: Surely one of them is the most cited otherkin resource.
You: Just go die
You: Okay
You: You dismissive asshat
You have disconnected.

Trying to clear out the backlog of links so this is going to be a big one. But I’m including pretties this time.
