Yasmin Benoit, the aromantic-asexual founder of #ThisIsWhatAsexualLooksLike, talked with Metro Entertainment in an answer to the question, “How do I navigate a world obsessed with sex as an asexual?” 

“It can definitely be scary and the world can be hard to navigate sometimes! Unfortunately, there are always going to be people who don’t take no for an answer whether you’re asexual or not,” said Benoit.  

Benoit advises navigating dating in platonic-oriented situations, and more.

Miss Major Griffin-Gracy is a survivor of the Stonewall Riots and mother to many trans women.  

This pride, the Black trans activist has been working to serve the community for 50 years. She has survived being knocked unconscious at Stonewall, overcame years of prison abuse, outsmarted white gay non-profit leaders who were anti-sex work and transphobic, built programs to defend neglected queer people nationwide, and much more. 

“All these people who challenged and fought me – where are they? They’re gone. I’m here … I’m still fucking here,” said Miss Major.  

While many anti-queer bills are passed in Arkansas, she continues to enjoy life and share it with others through many programs that are next to her house and nationwide.
