Open Call für Aro und Ace Künstler*innen!

Für die AktivistA-Konferenz 2026 am 5. September in Stuttgart suchen wir kreative Beiträge, die sich den vielfältigen Facetten der Aromantik und/oder Asexualität widmen.
Diese können je nach Format auf der Bühne präsentiert oder performt werden. Im Anschluss planen wir einen Round Table mit allen Beitragenden, um über die Bedeutung und Herausforderungen der künstlerischen Auseinandersetzung mit aro/ace-Themen zu sprechen.
Falls du Interesse hast oder mehr Infos benötigst, schreib gerne eine Mail an finxthulk[at]tutamail.com mit ein paar Sätzen über dich und deine Beitragsidee.

Es sind alle kreativen Beiträge wie z. B. Gedichte, Performances, Skulpturen, Videos, Fotografien etc. willkommen, egal ob du das als “Kunst” labelst oder nicht. :)

Zudem haben wir einen kleinen Topf für Fahrtkosten etc., außerdem gibt es wie bei allen Beiträgen Mittagessen umsonst.

Infos zur Location auch bei: https://aktivista.net/konferenz/aktivista-2026/

I discussed LGBT and its synonyms in "Thoughts on the Acronym."

I also explored the long form of the acronym and the identities it represents.

#Aphobia is bigotry against #asexual and #aromantic people.

Aphobia is different than other forms of #queerphobia. But it still SUCKS.

Common aphobic tropes include:

👎 Denying that asexual/aromantic ppl exist
👎 Dogmatic ideologies that claim that "everyone" must like/want sex and romantic love
👎 Framing asexual and aromantic ppl as "broken" or "inherently depressed"

I’m #aro-#ace myself and all those beliefs are TRASH.

Being AroAce, I can never detect flirting unless it is absolutely obvious, so when this lady in my building I'm friendly with constantly tells me I'm looking good I don't know if she's just supportive of my weight loss journey or is being a bit flirty.

I'm still amazed by the fact that I learned, that with alloromantic people, when they hear love songs etc., they are thinking of someone, they may apply that person to the song.
As an (evidently peer-reviewed) aromantic I still can't bring that into my imagination.

Last month I wrote a #poem based on my interpretation of a #writing prompt, andshared it here. Over the past few days I took in the challenge of translating it into #Spanish. That was fun, and involved a lot of playing around. The meter had to change, I had to learn a bunch of new words, and a few new metaphors. Anyway, here they both are. I hope you enjoy.

["Fixing" the Spanish version of the introduction. I was in a hurry this morning and auto translated it. This is my manual translation. Less correct. More me.]

El mes pasado escribí un #poema desde mi interpretación de un tema de escribir. Hace poco lo tranduje al #Español. Fue muy interesante. Tuve que cambiar el metro, aprendía muchas palabras nuevas, y hacía nueva metáforas. de todos modos, aquí están. Espero que le gusta.

Love Letter to an #Aromantic Friend

The truth was revealed
As truth is
In the things you didn't do
An unanswered touch
A glance that never met

And yet when we sit
Side by side
Reading our separate books
Playing separate games
I feel your soul with mine

And while you may not
It is true
Long for me as I for you
I can live with that
If you would live with me

And so I ask you
Via text
If you would join my comfort
Spending life with me
Doing separate things

-- Kee Hinckley

#Carta de Amor a Unx Amigx #Arrománticx

La verdad fue revelada
Ya que es verdad
En las cosas que no hacías
Un toque sin respuesta
Una mirada insatisfecha

Pero cuando nos sentamos
Lado a lado
Leyendo libros separados
Jugando en nos compus
Siento tu alma con la mía

Y si bien tú no puedas
A decir verdad
Anhelarme como yo a ti
Puedo vivir con eso
Si querrías vivir conmigo

Y así que te pregunto
Por un mensaje
Si te unes a mí en mi paz
Viviendo conmigo
Haciendo cosas separadas

I went to a writer's workshop today and the prompt was "write a love letter written to a non-romantic friend". So I wrote a poem Love Letter to an Aromantic Friend

The truth was revealed
As truth is
In the things you didn't do
An unanswered touch
A glance that never met

And yet when we sit
Side by side
Reading our separate books
Playing separate games
I feel your soul with mine

And while you may not
It is true
Long for me as I for you
I can live with that
If you would live with me

And so I ask you
