Hello, Emily. As someone who identifies as a Greyromantic Asexual, I just wanted to thank you so much for putting this LGBTQIA+ video series together. I was highly impressed with the way you explained the Asexual spectrum in such an informative and concise way. One of the points that I really appreciated was ensuring that LGBTQ+ affirming health care providers/therapists are also Ace affirming as many Ace people can experience anxiety/avoidance towards professionals who are acephobic.

I am certainly enjoying the videos in your series thus far and I'm definitely looking forward to watching them all!

I would love to see future videos about Asexuality and Acephobia in future videos from you!

Keep up the amazing work! Your efforts this Pride Month I'm sure have touched and will continue to touch many more people.
