Going off of my last post I don’t think the fight was moreso because of the neighbors wanting them to keep the music down, but maybe towards the people that didn’t think they should be performing rock n roll, but stereotypically be apart of motown music which is predominantly (pop & soul) african american artists. Hence them fighting to maintain identity🤔

In A band called death it is surprisingly knowing the kind of hate they were experiencing for practicing/performing rock n roll music, since it was considered “white boy music”. I like that they mentioned practicing the music was pure anger from fighting with the neighbors to maintain their identity.

“I pity your soul, because I don’t stand for what you stand for.” In this part of the film I feel very empathetic towards David and the other asexual people for having to endure the hate they were receiving just from educating others.

The people at the parade that were making rude comments like stay away give me 20 feet, not caring because it didn’t involve sex. I found it unnecessary for people to make these comments as if they were doing any harm.

When the man said, “you’re the only one that took the Asexual literature I avoided it like the plague.” That just surprised me that during prid, I would've thought a lot more people would be more accepting rather than less inclusive or rude

I saw a comment that said “who cares about my sexuality and why” while one of the interviewees explained people escaping from any label on sexuality. I kind of thought this comment fitted in this situation.

I find it inspiring how David gathered some people from the asexual community to attend the pride parade to spread awareness and knowledge. It definitely shows his commitment and his passion in this movement.

When some mentioned gay people marching for their rights and asexuals marching to do nothing was also pretty insensitive, i felt it invalidates their community. I find it hard to comprehend why people can’t understand importance to a groups of people, even though somethings may seem more urgent.

The relief I felt when people started to find the asexual .org website and realizing they were no longer alone. I can only imagine how they felt having a safe place with others knowing that they are no longer alone.

It’s very mind boggling that before David made his website that no one was speaking out more about asexuality. It definitely has to start somewhere to have awareness, which makes me wonder more how these individuals felt, not knowing that there were many others going through this same experience & not knowing how to identify.
