I kinda get a little uncomfortable when non-aspec people say that calling a character ace or aroace is “infantilizing” or that you shouldn’t have neurodivergent characters be aroace
Like I get *why* they’re saying these things (as thats the effect bad ace rep has) but as an aroace audhd guy it feels weird like am *I* bad rep? /j am I inherently infantilized by my own identity?
Unfortunately viktor from arcane genuinely isn’t good asexual rep (like the guy who claimed he was ace defo didn’t even know what the fuck that means ;-;) I’m probably still gonna headcannon him as such (aroace or ace and gay idk which) because I do that to all the characters I project onto but its so unfortunate like don’t misrepresent and misuse my identity as a scapegoat to get around gay rep thats so gross :/
