I am happy to announce that the Revised Ace Day will take place on November 26, 2015, which is also International Cake Day (seems appropriate for the ace community). This will be the date for all future Ace Day events.
So, here’s the plan:
- The original method of classification via the 4 ace cards is gone. Instead, participants may pick any ace card they wish, whether it be traditional suits, tarot, or otherwise. It’s completely up to you, so make it your own as an expression of yourself! Pick your own ace card and tell us why it’s special to you!
- In addition to your ace card, include a personal message, story, artwork, or whatever you want to express in reference to your orientation(s). Show the world who you are as an ace!! Emphasis on intersectionality is highly encouraged. This is an opportunity to highlight gender, race, religion, disabilities, and other communities that intersect with asexuality!
- For those who will be offline due to Thanksgiving in the US that day, feel free to either queue your posts on your own blog, submit them to me for posting, or submit them to theacedayposts blog.
- The acedayposts blog will also be reblogging various posts on the day of the event if you’d like to follow it and see what’s going on.
- Various social media platforms will be included moreso this time around. We’ll make another attempt at trending on Twitter and have even more focus on Facebook and Instagram!
- The official tag/hashtag across all platforms will be #AceDay
- A series of Google Hangouts (some on-air) will be available to connect with each other on the day of the event as well.
Let me know if you have questions! I’m really looking forward to this event being all-around better than the first one was and if there is anything I can do to help that happen, I’m all for it!

Given that the nation still debates the freedom to express sexuality — exemplified by things like the battle for marriage equality — it’s no wonder we tend to ignore individuals who want freedom from sexual relationships altogether. But asexuality does exist — and it’s not the same thing as having low libido or being celibate, abstinent or a virgin.
Sunny Ace Day 2015
I present to you my Ace of Hearts.
