Hey: Split Attraction Model

ace-times-three:

I feel like people are confused, honestly, about what exactly is the split attraction model.

The split attraction model is NOT:
½ orientation + ½ orientation = Full orientation

The split attraction model IS:
Orientation + orientation = personal orientation.

Yea, I’m aware the math doesn’t make sense at face value. But this is how it works. I’m asexual and panromantic.

My orientation is asexual. My orientation is also panromantic.

My split attraction is panromantic asexual. I am an asexual who is romantically attracted to most/all genders.

My asexuality is not dependent on my panromanticism. My panromanticism is not dependent on my asexuality.

It’s not “part of one plus part of another”
It’s “these two orientations both describe my feelings”.

Y’all really gotta stop throwing ya boyfriend’s video game systems in pools and cuttin up they shoes and lighting they clothes on fire just because you mad or you want his attention bc if he responded by throwing them $100 eyeshadow palettes in the pool or cuttin up a brand new lace wig you gon be pissed as hell, as you should be. It’s not cute, it’s abusive. And you need to fuckin stop

Say it louder for the parents who think it’s okay to destroy their kids stuff as retaliation for disrespect

DON’T BREAK OTHER PEOPLE’S SHIT

So my psychiatrist wanted me to take an IQ test and I wasn’t really sure why, the dude is pretty eccentric but I suppose it’s for demographic purposes and you’ll never fuckin guess what I got

OP don’t leave us in suspense

420

“jk it was 158″

I’m not sure if that tag is itself a joke or not but 158 it already an incredibly high iq.  You better not be pulled our collective legs here.

No that was the score I got. I’ve taken IQ tests before in high school and was always around 140. It’s just logical intelligence, though. Not social, not artistic, not really even book smarts. It’s basically a score of how good you are at problem solving and isn’t really indicative of your overall intelligence. Honestly I consider myself in all other aspects to be of average intelligence. I have problems with social queues as well and problems retaining information.

also rmemeber the fact that op is a literal fucking astrophysicist. i fucking hope they have an iq like that.

That’s a good point lol I’m good at physics but like….. can’t work an oven and I’m not allowed to use weedwhackers

“Not allowed to use weedwhackers”…plz elaborate

They move fast and cut things including ankles and shins

this is a wonderful post because it shows that people can be a fucking genius but it won’t guarantee they’ll be good at everything

I’m also really grateful for the clarification that OP is an astrophysicist because like. I thought this was some edgy tryhard trying to casually prove their superiority, then the whole post took a decidedly wholesome turn.

maybe.. but dude, spacemom @kaijuno has always been like this, I want to send her pizza.

This is a really useful post on the varying kinds of intelligences, because on the one hand I always knew that I was smart, but on the other hand, I was equally certain that I was (and continue to be) a complete fucking idiot.
